EURO KERA, 2 burner stove top. Probably, older version. Burner knobs are both broken. The second one broke about 2 hrs ago. Back burner turned on & off. Weird, unidentifiable chemical fumes when on so long.
After much trying, I found a twisted metal cord like I've seen from a breaker box ( Conduit? Why metal?) under the stove top in a cupboard. Then, found an electrical cord w/ outlet in another cupboard ( connected to first) & unplugged it. Burner now off.
I asked for new knobs fr. maintenance, but, nothing, yet.
Any quick fix ideas? It's hard to regulate knobs & heat, even when whole.
What are the fumes, possibly?
Unable to copy photo, but here is similar stove top.
