I just finished replacing the pilot assembly in ours because the oven was still giving us trouble. They sent the wrong replacement thermocouple – too short, even though correct part number – so I just cleaned our old one with a Brillo pad. It lights just fine now. This might have been the problem, or it could have been the kink in the pilot gas line.

I’m telling you this because we have read that it is usually the thermocouples that fail first, causing problems with these ovens. Try cleaning yours with an S.O.S. pad or some steel wool. the one that regulates oven temperature is the small silver one at the top rear of the oven.

If you have to replace it, or the knob assembly, it is fairly straightforward, even without a manual. The oven slides out easily once you remove the four screws in the top sides, and two on the bottom under the door. Just be sure to turn off your gas tank and disconnect the large copper gas line under the range top. We got our Maytag RV oven replacement parts at repairclinic.com.
