Description

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

What's included:

• One pilot thermostat

Install notes:

• 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
