Maytag Range / Cooktop / Oven Pilot

This pilot burner supplies the standing pilot flame for the right-side surface burners on standing-pilot gas ranges. Replacing a clogged or damaged pilot restores consistent ignition and a stable flame for reliable burner lighting.

• Provides the small, continuous flame that lights the right-side surface burners when their valves are opened
• Helps maintain correct pilot flame size and positioning for dependable crossover ignition
• Safe symptom clues: pilot won't stay lit, weak/yellow flame, intermittent or no lighting of the right-side burners, needing a match to light
• Physical damage or blockage from spills/debris can impair operation

• Disconnect power and shut off gas before servicing; allow the appliance to cool
• Access the pilot area; note routing and orientation before removal
• After reconnecting, check all gas connections with an approved leak-detection solution
• Adjust the pilot flame to manufacturer specifications and re-light pilots as required

This pilot burner assembly ignites the oven's main burner and restores reliable pilot flame control for gas ranges and ovens. Use to replace a worn or malfunctioning pilot that won't hold a steady flame. What it does:

• Provides the small, continuous pilot flame required to light the main burner
• Helps resolve symptoms like a weak or out pilot flame, intermittent ignition, or oven that won't light
• Direct replacement for the OEM pilot burner assembly designed for compatible gas ovens
• Works with factory gas control and ignition components when installed correctly

• Turn off gas supply and electrical power to the appliance before servicing
• Inspect the gas orifice and pilot tube for debris; clean gently if needed
• Use appropriate hand tools and tighten fittings to manufacturer torque specs — do not overtighten

This pilot thermostat is the oven temperature control that senses heat and helps regulate burner operation for consistent cooking. It replaces a worn or faulty thermostat to restore accurate temperature response and reliable oven ignition. What it does:

• Senses oven temperature and signals the burner/pilot system to maintain set heat levels
• Helps the oven light and hold temperature when the pilot or main burner is used
• Commonly used when the oven won't heat, cycles excessively, or fails to maintain consistent temperature
• Works as the temperature-sensing control element in gas oven pilot systems

• One pilot thermostat

• Turn off power and shut off gas supply before starting any service
• Handle thermostat gently; avoid bending or stressing the sensing element or capillary tube
• Verify wiring connections match the old part; replace like-for-like
