your hotness was keeping it going lol.
The knob might be striped out, pull the knob off and try turning the stem with some pliers. Or you might have a bad (dial)
The temperature sensor for the burner is kaput..
Sounds like that heating element’s (surface burner) infinite switch burned out. You can replace this part. Get your appliances model number off your appliance. If you do not know where to look, this page will help you:
