Ok, well I did try turning it, but that didn't do anything. I wasn't sure
if it was supposed to. I know the heater knob does, but I haven't figured
out if anything actually happens when it's turned, and I'm afraid of
breaking it so I usually just leave it alone :). Is it hard to replace
with the locking kind? I know there's a stash of those in my house
somewhere (if the one's from a B will fit).
