Looking for help in figuring out why my Oven don't work?
Everything in my TC works great except for the Oven & I'm looking for some basic help on what to look for in figuring out why it may not be working? I know nothing about Ovens..

Most of the older RV ovens used a 2 stage pilot which has a small standing pilot and a higher heater pilot. The thermostat just controlled the pilot size, and the higher heater pilot heated a small bulb hooked to the safety valve via a small capillary tube, which opened the valve letting LP flow. These were done away with because of the mercury in the valves.
The new models use a standard thermocouple type system- push and hold to light. A common problem is the knob bottoming out on the panel before it can be depressed far enough. The fix being taking the knob off and stuffing a small wad of paper in it to raise it a bit.
Look around the DIY forum for a couple of people who have installed electronic lighters on their ranges- a great mod.
Here you go electronic ignitor install.
