Ive got a 22”, 3 burner Amana range/oven. I think its sold with other names stamped on it too. Looks like this..https://www.plessers.com/Amana/aly2280bds.htmHave continuously had problems with the pilot going out and the oven shutting down.Temperature control is also not accurate, but i have a Fluke multimeter that measures temperature for that.Wife bought all kinds of stuff for a big baking day today...Yup, cant keep her lit again. Ive set pilot high, med, low. Sometimes soots up the pilot temp sensor.WHAT IS A GOOD RELIABLE OVEN TO BUY?

My coach came with a Panasonic combination microwave/convection oven. The convection part works amazingly well for baking. I can fit up to a 13 pound turkey in it. The down side is that it uses lots of power and I either need to run my generator or be plugged into shore power.

We had to replace our stove last year simply because of the lack of a small part. Not thrilled at all about having to get a new stove.The biggest problem was getting a replacement to fit. You would think that the manufacturers would get together & agree on a few overall dimension sizes, but no, that is not the case.The best available was the same depth & width but not height, losing oven capacity. The DW is not happy with it.If buying a replacement do not assume anything. From the start know your dimensions.

That thing you are calling the “pilot temp sensor” - have you tried cleaning that? A very light sanding with emery cloth.

With too high a pilot flame (yellow), it builds up a soot coating.Yes, ive been on that a number of times with wire brush and sometimes spray.

groundhogy,The regulator may need to be replaced. The pressure should measure 10 inches.The oven may heat more evenly with an unglazed tile added above the burner.

On the regulator, it has crossed my mind, but...
-the one in stove is no more than 3 yrs old.
-the main outside one 1.5 yrs old.
-plenty of pressure at range top burner
-this problem existed even with old regulators

In my mind i am wondering about the electrical connection to the temperature sensor to the oven knob assy.

I know a couple of people that have installed Dickerson combination stove/ovens and love them. Hold on to your wallet!

Could be as simple as a bad thermocouple. Cheap and easy to replace.

The thermocouple is the device that detects the presents of flame at the pilot flame.
Now if that doesn't work and you end up replacing the range, I would opt for one with sealed burners and cast iron grates.
We got one with a sealed top, but a heavy stamped steel grate, we have some warping of the grates.
