It will most likely be the thermostat that is faulty and will neeed replacing. If it wwas the safety device then you would not get any gas at all.

hi..ya you can replace it of your own once you know
how to install.
try it out..
thank you..
kindly rate my response..

Reading the user manual, it states that the flame initially comes on low, until it is "sensed" by the flame sensing device. This to me sounds suspiciously like the flame isn't being sensed and so never gets increased to the normal level.
I've not had time for a proper look at it.... but from a quick glance this morning this looked like a "flame rectifier" probe next to my burner (as we commonly use in boilers to sense if the gas burner is lit). This is just a metal probe. They send a high-ish AC voltage signal (Sine wave) from it, through the flame, to the earthed metal case. The flame acts like a diode (yes it really does work !) and simple electronics detects the change in the applied signal (rectified) due to the flame. I know from personal experience they (the probes) get coated with crud (carbon, etc) and need a good clean. I suggest you try cleaning both it and the metal area opposite it. If necessary the probes metal tip could be GENTLY rubbed with very fine Emmery cloth, etc, if badly coated.
Other than that, if it is sensing the flame, then it must be the gas control device (solenoid valve ?) that is jammed, blocked or just defective.
Simples......

wipe it down with olive oil and heat it up then let is cool completly and wipe again do this 4 or 5 times and you will be good to go

the best way is to get a gas fitter to check the millibars coming through the pipe. it should be 20 miliibars at the meter or more and not less than 19millibars at the cooker. if its less it needs bigger pipe. simple test to do. if its wrong at the meter the gas supplier must turn it up.

sounds like your jets are blocked try poking a bit of wire in them carfully.

the glass comes off like a cover. take out bulb and replace it.

The knob won't have any effect on the flame size.  The knob controls temperature.  If you're referring to the pilot light staying on and then the main flame not going on...that's another problem.  If the main flame will not go on, the assembly that controls the main flame is likely defective.  If the unit has a thermocouple, you might change it out first.  Sometimes, that's all that is needed and they're cheap.

phone them back and check for old seal. number is 08707 895 107

jets might be the LPG type there are usually two types you get with it. but rangemaster helpline is 08707 895 107 tech support and spares line.

Rangemaster helpline is 08707895107 grear help got there before for me.

Hi, You can place your range cooker on any floor, but make sure it is level..

Hi
Just to say we sorted the problem. Simply the bulb was out in the one oven. We replaced this and problem solved.

Its the flame failure device faulty (FFD)

My progress to date (20090127):
1 Turn off the gas supply to the oven
2 Turn off the electricity supply
3 Remove the oven linings
4 Remove the storage drawer
5 Remove the three screws holding on the bottom trim and the trim
6 Crank up the front roller
7 Pull out the oven carefully making sure the gas hose and electrical lead are long enough and not caught
8 Working from the rear of the Rangemaster, for the right-hand oven, remove the four screws on the corners of the large cover plate at the back of the oven about half way down on the left-hand side as viewed from the back.
9 Remove the cover plate.
10 Go to the front of the oven. Above the burner assembly, towards the left is a thin metal rod running front to back. This is held in place by a clip at the back and by the hole in the metal frame at the front. Remove the metal clip at the back using a pair of long-nosed pliers. Retain the clip.
11 This should release the metal rod (flame sensing device) and you should be able to push it through the hole and out at the back. It is attached to a long copper wire.
12 Go to the back of the range. You should be able to work the wire back through the hole in the rear metal plate and up to the gas valve. The wire is held in place at the gas valve by a bent clip on the rear right. Carefully bend this clip back towards the oven to release the wire.
13 The wire goes down under the gas valve and to a threded bolt end into the bottom of the gas valve ad the bolt is held in place using a locking nut.
14 Remove the locking nut using a small spanner. The threded bolt should now turn, with the aid of long-nosed pliers.
15 The next trick is to remove this threaded bolt on the end of the copper wire and I have not figured out how to do that. It will unscrew a good way but becomes tight and will not come out, as though something inside the valve is holding it in place. Could it be that the flame sensing device has to be removed and inserted from inside the gas valve? If so, what a daft piece of engineering this is.
16 HELP.

I dont know if your in the UK but if you do disconnect your gas feed the way MrMark has mentioned you will be breaking the law.. you'll need to be corgi registered to do it that way.

BUT.....

Again if you are in the UK, some gas supplies were fitted with a quick release system.

With this all you need to do is slide your cooker out, locate the connection at the wall, not the back of the stove.

Press down on the top of the connector and turn the pipe coming out about 1/4 of a turn and it will release and self seal the gas outlet.
