The thermocouple is the slim probe beside the burner that senses the flame and keeps the gas tap open. Glem uses different thermocouples for standard, wok and other burners, so match 013V59 with the old part or your parts list, and check the lead length is right.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eGas burner won't stay lit? Check the thermocouple\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA thermocouple is a flame failure device. When the flame heats its tip, it produces a tiny voltage that holds a magnet in the gas tap open. If the flame goes out, the voltage drops and the tap shuts off the gas. When the thermocouple fails, the burner lights while you hold the knob in but dies as soon as you let go. A tip that's bent away from the flame, crusted with burnt food or cracked is a common cause, as is a loose connection at the tap end.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePart details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenuine Glem Gas part 013V59\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBurner thermocouple, flame failure safety device\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e450mm length (L 450)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eListed as type QF in our records\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"part-specs\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eLength\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e450mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWho should fit a gas thermocouple\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGas work in Australia must be done by a licensed gas fitter. They will shut off the gas supply and isolate power to the ignition, then lift out the trivets and burner parts to reach the thermocouple. The probe end fixes at the burner and the other end connects at the gas tap. Afterwards the fitter leak tests the joints and confirms the burner stays alight once the knob is released.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eQuestions about this part\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy does my burner go out when I let go of the knob?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThat's the classic sign of a thermocouple or flame failure fault. It can also happen if the burner cap is misaligned and the flame doesn't reach the probe, so check the cap first. If the flame touches the tip and it still drops out, have a licensed gas fitter test and replace the thermocouple.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Glem Gas","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44551251558478,"sku":"013V59","price":63.62,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/partsshop.com.au\/products\/013v59-genuine-glem-gas-gas-burner-thermocouple-450mm","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
