I would first try replacing the thermocouple (you want to put a new one on a new gas valve any way), if that didn't cure it ya gotta replace that old gas valve because the solenoid on it is going out. Ain't gone yet but going and nope you cannot just replace the solenoid anymore like in the old days. Gotta fit another gas valve IF the new thermophile generator don't fix the probo.

If you need further help, reach me via phone at https://www.6ya.com/expert/dan_73bbd84fe1d95b61

SOURCE: stove top pilot light

I have a GE Gas Stove XL44 the stove top buners don't light by themselves without manual lighting. When I turn on the buner knob the buner doesn't click. Also I used my self- cleaning oven for the first time and stopped it before the time was up after that is when the stove top buners wouldn't light by theirselves.

SOURCE: Oven pilot light will not stay lit

The thermocouple is bad this is the probe that sits next to the pilot,the pilot flame heats the thermocouple and then it sends a micro voltage to the valve to keep it lit.Goto hobartcorp.com and find your model then the part number.

SOURCE: the right hand oven lights, but no matter which

the flame needs to be adjusted there's a small screw right inside of the shaft where the knob goes. Pull knob off and there should be a screw inside that u shaped shaft. Turn the burners on and set the flame accordingly.

My dean fry master commercial food truck deep fryer comes on and the pilot light stays on but the burners cut off after some time and don't come back on when I increase the temperature

Hi,

Please ensure that you have not used a different procedure in order to start your fryer. And if there are any gas tanks attached, please double check that they still contain enough to be used with your fryer.

Thank you.

I have got lincat fryer j10 the pilot won't stay

Hi there.
Make sure that the thermopile is receiving enough heat from the pilot and if it does, check if the hi limit is good, check and tighten also all of the wiring connections, before replacing the gas valve.
Regards.

Fryer comes on gets to temperature, then after a varied amount of time depending on use will power down, and will not come back on to maintain temperature, or will occasionally come on, but not to desired ...

Hi there.
Thermopile must be free of soot or any form of dirt so that it coud absorb the right intensity of heat from the pilot flame for millivolt generation used in energizing the pilot and main valve electrical coils for pilot and burner operation. Pilot flame must be stable during fryer operation as well as the gas pressure being supplied to the unit.
All wiring connection must be tight, a very small amount of voltage generated by the thermopile or millivolts will not pass thru loosely connected wires.
Regards.

there is a small adjustment screw on the gas valve,turn it clockwise to increase pilot,if that does not work the vent cap on the gas regulator on the back of the unit could be stopped up,remove that cap ,clean out or replace unit can operate without it just fine.If you increase the pilot and it still wont stay lit replace the thermocouple
