faulty indesit?

we have a indesit cooker,I dont know the exact model,but when we try to put the oven on you have to hold the knob in for a while before you can let it go and the oven will stay on,also you cannot turn the heat up,it stays on low as long as you hold the knob in.

Sounds like your thermocouple.
