Wife making cookies...RV oven keeps going out...

I am rapidly getting into trouble each time we have to light the oven again. Even though its not my fault. Light the pilot light and it stays on ok. Turn knob and burner lights and oven heats ok. ...

Can anyone tell me WHY they put the pilot light at the back of the oven so we have to get down on our hands and knees to ignite it?

I solved the issue by going electric and never using the propane oven.


DW had the same comment...... So..... I went to home depot and got a 4 spark ignitor for a BBQ, one of the ignitors had high temp insulation for use inside the BBQ.... worked great on the cooktop and oven, and it's powered by AA battery. Works great, especially the oven pilot light,
