How to replace Range Pilot Assembly With Thermocouple. I discovered the oven thermocouple was broken and burned off at the end. This prevented the oven pilot to remain lit after releasing the oven control knob. I ordered a new thermocouple which was part of the oven burner assembly. The oven now works just fine. 10 People found this story helpful Do-It-Yourself Rating: Repair Time Estimate: 1-2 hours
