Troubleshooting Oven Pilot

Oven pilot does not work.

Check whether the pilot flame is lit by looking through the hole in the bottom of the oven. Leave the oven door open for five minutes to allow gas fumes to clear.

If the pilot is not lit, attempt to light the pilot by raising the kick panel slightly and rotating its top edge outward. Press and hold the red button on the oven safety valve and put a flame to the pilot.

No

Does the pilot light?

Yes

 

 

 

Check that the oven pilot adjustment on the manifold is open.

If the pilot still will not light, do the following: Remove the oven bottom. Loosen the pilot nut on the burner bracket. Remove the pilot tube from the safety valve. Remove the pilot orifice from the pilot or end of the tube and check for debris.

Re-install the pilot orifice and tubing.

Continue to hold the red button for 30 seconds. The pilot should remain lit after the button is released. If it does not, wait five minutes and try again.

If the pilot will not remain lit, do the following: Remove the

thermocouple from the safety valve. Install a thermocouple adapter between the safety valve and the thermocouple to measure the direct-current millivoltage produced by the thermocouple. While holding the red button, light the pilot and measure the voltage produced by the thermocouple. If the voltage does not rise above 10 millivolts, adjust the pilot valve and retest. If the voltage still does not quickly rise above 10 millivolts, replace the thermocouple.

If instead the thermocouple is working properly, replace the safety

valve.
