Can I repair the control shaft if it’s damaged?
If the control shaft is damaged, it is usually best to replace the entire assembly rather than attempting a repair, as the shaft is integral to the stove's performance.
Why is my Samsung stove burner not lighting even with a working knob?
If the burner is not lighting, it could be due to a clogged burner, faulty igniter, or issues with the gas supply. Inspect and clean the burner assembly or call a professional if needed.
