Right front burner switch stopped rotating. Got a new switch. Installed it per your Feb 2015 Utube video. The new switch did not turn either. So, here is where it gets odd. I removed the switch, stuck the knob on it and it turned just fine while in my hand. Did the same test with the original “defective” switch and it turned just fine as well. Re-installed each one and neither turns when installed. Help please
see above

Hi. Did you have to make the shaft of the new switch shorter by snapping it off at the break off point? If so, you may have made the shaft too short so that when it is installed with the knob on it you can not push not knob in to get the switch to rotate. See if the shafts are the same length on the old and new switch. Also, when it is installed see if the knob on the new one sits too close to the console compared to your other switches. Turn one of your other switches on. You should notice you have to push in a little first while in the off position before it will rotate. That is the only thing I can think of the would cause it to turn when not installed and not turn when installed.
