It belongs in Electrolux group gas ovens and freestanding cookers that have a gas grill. The oven burner uses its own thermocouple under a different number, so check you're replacing the grill one, and match the length and part number on your old part.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eGas grill goes out when you let go of the knob?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe thermocouple's tip sits in the grill burner flame. Heat on the tip makes a small voltage that holds the safety valve open, so gas keeps flowing only while there's a flame. If the burner blows out, the valve closes within seconds. A failing thermocouple makes the grill drop out after you release the knob, cut out part way through cooking, or need holding in far longer than normal. Grill thermocouples sit close to intense heat and fat spatter, so tips often crack or get coated over time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePart details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenuine Electrolux group part 140054234038\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThermocouple for the gas grill burner\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e400mm length per Electrolux's description\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFlame failure safety device\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\u003e400mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHave a gas fitter replace it\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOnly a licensed gas fitter should replace a thermocouple. Isolate the gas and switch the cooker off at the wall before the grill burner is accessed. Keep the new lead clear of the burner and hot surfaces, follow the old routing and don't overtighten the fitting at the valve. A leak test and a check that the grill holds its flame complete the job.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eQuestions about this part\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIs the grill thermocouple the same as the oven one?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNot necessarily. Electrolux lists separate thermocouples for the grill burner and the oven burner, often in different lengths. This one is the 400mm grill burner version.
