Upon closer inspection, I see that what has broken is the semi-circular
shaped brass stem that the knob slips onto!  THAT is what is free spinning;
the half-moon shaped stem has broken off at the base of the stove switch.
There is a thin long blunt needle-like projection coming out of the base of
the stove switch; it goes into the brass stem; the brass stem is spinning
freely on that needle-like thing.  Obviously I've ordered the wrong part.
Don't need a knob, it's the mechanism the knob is attached to that is
broken.  Where do you suppose I can get parts/repair for that?
