It will turn off, but the temp adjust does not control the temperature. It feels normal when you turn the knob, but it stays on full hot no matter where the know points. I am guessing it is probably the control behind the knob, but would appreciate a more experienced opinion.

There are two different types used in your range. From left to right on the console let's name them 1,2,3,4. The numbers 1 and 3 are the switches Part number: AP3885460 And the 2 and 4 are Part number: AP3890378 Don't forget to unplug the range before opening the console. Good luck. Please keep us posted with the results. Simon.
