What This Part Does
The thermocouple is a safety device fitted to your gas burner. While the burner is lit and heat reaches the thermocouple tip, it generates a small electrical current that holds the gas safety valve open. If the flame goes out for any reason, the thermocouple cools within seconds and the valve automatically shuts off the gas supply, helping to prevent unburned gas from escaping.
Common Fault Symptoms
- Burner will not stay alight once you release the control knob
- Pilot light keeps going out
- Burner takes longer than usual to stay lit
- Burner will not ignite or hold a flame at all
