Thank you for this video, it gave me some ideas - one of my burners would only stay on if a pan was covering the problem hob. Read elsewhere that the thermocouple head must be in the flame for the burner to stay on (safety feature). Found that the burner ring and cover had a tiny bit of play and would move toward the thermocouple head by maybe 1mm, after doing this the hob stays on fine. Thanks again for the video - I know what to do if I need to change the thermocouple now.
Have been living without the central burner on my five ring hob for ages, and kept putting off repairing it. Eventually decided to deal with it, and turned to TH-cam for help. Once I find the model number and source the Whirlpool part, I'll tackle it. Thanks for the clear instructions!
Thanks for this easy to follow video. Removed the cover, used a toothbrush to clean up some of the grease that had built up around the thermocouple and now its working.
You really are fantastic. I've just stripped my 5-burner hob down, for just this problem. Lots of grease. Cleaned all the electrical contact faces, and all works fine. Thanks very much.
Same problem here, Electrician quoted something astronomical. Will order the part and fix myself. Thanks for the guidance and confidence. Good clear video too btw.
Hello Tristram O, your video is very good, explains the problem you have, I also have this problem with my kitchen and I did not know how to recognize the problem, it helped me a lot to understand and what to do in this situation now I feel more confident, now I can already call the kitchen technician and order the work without fear that the technician will damage my kitchen or recommend me to buy another one because the kitchen does not work completely Thanks for your happy day tutorial
Very informative. Have the same issue, same burner, fairly new hisense stove. Im diy too, but my first experience with gas stove. Will cintact the supplier tomorrow and how it goes. Its 3 months new. Thanks.
A year and a bit old and this video is still extremely useful. All the steps were exactly the same for my delonghi 700mm gas hobs. Perfectly illustrated, perfectly commentated. Thanks heaps
I found that cleaning the thermocouple with fine sandpaper also worked ! Your video showed me what the thermocouple looks like ,I thought the spike was something to do with the spark ignition .
Thank you so so much. Just knowing how these things are put together (I have a Nard that basically looks identical under the coveri) allowed me to get inside and clean it up and hey presto it worked without even having to buy a new thermocouple.
If the thermocouple has become loose and therefore might sit too far away from the flame even by a couple of mm's....the flame might continually be cutting out. Check whatevers holding it in place and make sure it holds the thermocouple close to the flame Mine works now and i didnt need a new one And p.s...you need to clean the protruding metal thermocouples tip with light sandpaper or a scotchbrite pad to remove carbon etc food deposits which will also stop it working properly
Very good video on thermocouple replacement. Wondering if you have any video on why the burner is not igniting. only one burner is not igniting but others are fine
Can a cooker gas hob work without a thermocouple. my AEG range cooker large burner thermocouple has gone but the cooker and parts have been discontinued. it is almost new but 12 yrs old. is there anyway i could get this burner to work. i have contacted the manufacturer and they are not interested just said no parts available oaths model.
I need to replace the thermocouple in an upright SMEG unit but can't remove the top, even after removing all the screws from the top and back. I can remove the back edge. Any help/tips appreciated! Thanks
What's wrong cause this thermocouple broken? I also have the same problem and unfortunately it's hard to find thermacouple for my stove, because it has different type from what's on the market.
appreciate your time to make this video, it helped me six years after your posting; cheers ! very well explained.
I managed to replace the thermocouple on my gas hob (of a different brand) with the help of your very clear instruction video. Thanks!
Great video. I've had this problem with my hob since new. I'm now sorting out a new thermocouple to fit myself. Thank you again! 👍
Thanks for a clear video, Our grill is playing up, have ordered a replacement thermocouple and now am confident to do the job safely thanks
Four years old but still very relevant and helpful.
Thanks a lot.
Kudos to the effort and thoughts.

Thank you. I now feel confident to open my stove and try to repair ir. Your video is so helpful.
Thanks for this easy to follow video. Removed the cover, used a toothbrush to clean up some of the grease that had built up around the thermocouple and now its working.
So u did not have to replace it , is it ??
Same here 2 years later! 👌
Superb tutorial , this has given me the confidence to tackle a similar problem on my Rangemaster cooker gas burners, thanks you
You really are fantastic.
I've just stripped my 5-burner hob down, for just this problem.
Lots of grease.
Cleaned all the electrical contact faces, and all works fine.
Thanks very much.
What did you use? Vinegar and baking soda?
Same problem here, Electrician quoted something astronomical. Will order the part and fix myself. Thanks for the guidance and confidence. Good clear video too btw.

Great video, thanks for filming this. I have the same problem with a very similar looking Neff hob and now feel confident I can fix it. Thanks
Excellent tutorial, clear and well explained and I thank you - just what I needed to know.
Calm delivery of important information ! Thank you .
Very informative. Have the same issue, same burner, fairly new hisense stove. Im diy too, but my first experience with gas stove. Will cintact the supplier tomorrow and how it goes. Its 3 months new. Thanks.
Brilliant and clear guide, thanks!
Thank you! Just fixes my hob! In my case it only took to clean those elements with some degreaser - good as new! Fab! 👌
Thanks for sharing, seems fairy easy job, off to fix daughter’s hob tomorrow.
Good luck
Thanks for that. Saved me hundreds of dollars🤗🤗
👍And saved the landfill

How did you reseal the cooker metal plate with the worktop?
@@edwardcullen3251 silicone.buddy
Excellent. Thanks for the solution.
Ppl , before removing the thermacouple try cleaning it with small grit sandpapper. Sometimes the buildbuid/gunk will keep it from working correctly.
Really glad you posted this - many thanks.
I found that cleaning the thermocouple with fine sandpaper also worked ! Your video showed me what the thermocouple looks like ,I thought the spike was something to do with the spark ignition .
Thanks to u too, I will try yr idea. Saves me taking everything off. ....but if it doesn't work I'll follow thru with the video.👍🏼
@@neitamaoate7810 cleaned thermocouple with sandpaper as your suggestion and all is good again. Thanks for the tip.
Thank you so so much. Just knowing how these things are put together (I have a Nard that basically looks identical under the coveri) allowed me to get inside and clean it up and hey presto it worked without even having to buy a new thermocouple.

Thank u for the video. Im on to it tomoro morning. 👍🏼❤
Had exactly the same problem on a gas refrigerator. Easy (and cheap) fix with a new thermocouple. Access was a bit more awkard though.
Loving it!!
Thank you. Very valuable.
Thank you, just what i needed!
Great video explains everything you need to know Thankyou
very helpful thank you
Good job!
How can i add thermo couple to a five burner cooker thay does n't have thermo couple from factory?
Is it echomomical?
Nice video. One question. The small screw on the thermocouple, is it required to have? My one is not there.
Hi and thanks. My guess is, if there isn’t one on the original thermostat you are replacing then your model probably doesn’t need it.
Thanks for this
Hi good video
In my Belling gas oven at low setting it cant stay on can you help pls
Great video, just what I needed. Thanks!
Where do you get the spare parts? My caps are also rusty and need replacing.
I used espares but I think there are other companies if you Google it

I need to replace the thermocouple in an upright SMEG unit but can't remove the top, even after removing all the screws from the top and back. I can remove the back edge. Any help/tips appreciated! Thanks
Sorry I have no experience with an upright. I hope can can find a TH-cam video on it. Good luck.

Technically your all breaking the Gas Safety Installation and Use Regulations if you've not proved competency to carry out this work
