Zanussi hob knobs

MacSNaP · 2012-10-06 17:50:38

Just replaced 3 of 5 knobs on my Zanussi hob. They look identical to the old ones and at €25 each I assume they are legit, but when I light the hob and release the knobs, the gas cuts out. Switching the knobs around makes no difference. The old ones work properly the new ones don't. Any ideas?
