I have had my kitchen extended and we removed the oven for a few weeks. Yesterday I reconnected the Oven and the grill part of it is playing up a bit.

I hope someone has an idea what could be the issue and if the oven be reparable (not by me obviously.)

The fault:

The main knob (same knob controls the oven and grill) seems a bit wobbly. If you move it the green light flickers on and off. The Oven part of it works, but when I try to turn the grill on. There is very little gas being diverted to the grill. But there is sound of a high flow of gas/air to a different part of the appliance. Only one side of the grill lights up and it is very low. There is also smell of gas.
Does this sound like a fault anyone has seen and would this be repairable? I was thinking maybe the control switch is faulty and is releasing gas to oven even when grill is being used? Could this happen, obviously I’m only guessing as I don’t know the workings of gas appliances.

If the appliance is on a flex into a bayonet fitting, disconnect it and call in someone to check it out. No further gas advice for safety reasons.

It is already disconnected. but could anyone give an idea of the spares cost, so we can decide if it is worth repairing.
