Hi there. Pilot light on Millivolt Gas Valve can be adjusted by removing the screw (with pilot adj mark) just below the gas valve knob and tightening (to increase pilot flame) or loosening (to decrease pilot flame) the screw inside. However, make sure that the gas pressure is sufficient and the pilot assembly is clean before doing this. Regards.
Hi Thanks for using FixYa. From what
you have described it seems that possible oven control is not sending gas
for the pilot light. The pilot light works but no main burner ignition -
possible pilot assembly is dirty and the pilot flame is too small, safety valve
and thermocouple is faulty, the bulb from the safety valve is out of position
and the pilot flame is not touching the thermocouple bulb. Some ranges use a
standing pilot light (smallflame is on
all the time ) while others use an spark ignition to light the pilot light
flame and the pilot light flame heats up the thermocouple bulb to allow the
main gas to flow through the oven burner. Please do accept the solution
if the issue is resolved or else revert for further assistance. Thanks Rylee
Find the gas valve and turn it to pilot. (Or light) Use a long reach lighter. Light the lighter and press the knob in. Light the pilot and continue to hold the knob in for about 15 seconds. When you release it, the pilot should stay lit. If it doesn't, you need a new thermocouple. That's the small tube that the flame touches when the pilot's lit. They're inexpensive and usually not too hard to replace.
