Gas Oven Thermostat

Gas Oven Thermostat

James from KY

Oven thermostat stuck. oven flame stayed small and very slowly reached preset temperature. Then when it was finally reached the oven never shut off just kept on heating

5mm wrench, 8 mm wrench, 12mm wrench, 15 mm wrench 18mm wrench, #2 phillp screwdriver

Making sure gas is shut off at outside source remove the three burners with screwdriver. First remove all the knobs from front. Next remove the main supply line with 18mm wrench. Next remove the three screws holding manifold "same as the ones holding the burners". Next starting from right to left remove oven burner supply line 15mm. Then thermocouple 5mm might need the 12mm to hold other side while u do this. Next remove the pilot light gas line last one on left. Finally remove thermostat from clip inside oven bring it up through hole on top of stove then the old thermostat assembly is ready to remove. Replace in reverse order making sure to check all fitting for leaks with " snoop" or other leak check turn on gas source look for leaks. If none are seen light oven pilot and turn knob to make sure burner flames properly.

Pilot light would not stay lit

Common hand tools

After turning off and burning the remaining gas in the lines I removed the burner ignition wires and raised the burner assembly to fully upright exposing the fuel rail and associated attachment screws. I loosened and removed the gas supply line, removed the knobs, removed two fuel rail attachment screws, and the gas connectors associated with the three burners and oven controller. I also removed and feed the thermostat sensor out of the oven. With the fuel rail out I removed the attachment bolt holding the oven controller to the fuel rail. Using the provided o ring I repositioned the new controller. NOTE. THE CONTROL ASSEMBLY SHOULD COME WITH A NEW GASKET FOR THE ATTACHMENT BOLT. I used some liquid Teflon thread seal to insure a leak free connection as the existing gasket is becoming worn. Reinstall the fuel rail and working backwards reconnect remaining items. Don't kink the thermostat sensor line. unroll it gently and thread it back into the oven compartment and replace it in the mounting bracket. Check for leaks with soapy water and small as the controller mounting bolt is no longer exposed.
