Magic Chef stove

Question

Hello fellow campers. I'm not actually a camper. I live in an older rv that doesn't go anywhere. Works for me! Anyway, I have a Magic Chef stove (older) and when I turn the oven on to bake the temperature gets and remains extremely HOT. I noticed that the tip of the oven pilot is bright red like on fire. I've looked through the parts book and believe it's the oven pilot that needs replacing but then again there's the thermocoupler as well. If anyone might have any further information that would be useful in helping me determine what needs replacing, I would be ever so greatful. Appreciate any and all comments. Thank You, Marilyn

so I am just trying to understand what the problem is here, sounds like everything is working properly to me.&nbsp; are you saying it gets to hot for baking?&nbsp; or that it won't shut off the main burner?&nbsp; maybe buy a cheep oven thermometer and place it in to see what the temp actually is.&nbsp;
the tip of the thermocouple is supposed to get bright red, if it wasn't working then your oven pilot wouldn't stay on.
