It's the flame safety probe that keeps the gas valve open only while the burner is alight. It's listed for 29 models, including the TEG95TBK and TEG95DUA-2, the TGC6GFSS and TGC9GLWFSS, the TB64GWFSS-4 and TB75GWFSS-3, and the H640SXFPRO and H950STXFPRO.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eGas burner won't stay lit? Suspect the thermocouple\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith the flame burning, the thermocouple tip heats up and generates a small voltage that holds the gas valve open. If the burner goes out, the tip cools, the voltage drops and the valve shuts off the gas. A worn or damaged thermocouple produces too little voltage, so the classic sign is a burner that lights while you hold the knob in but goes out as soon as you let go. Burners that cut out randomly mid-cook, or a tip that has been bent out of the flame, also point to this part.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePart details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGeneric replacement, part 30401800002\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e500mm length\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFlame failure thermocouple for gas burners\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eListed for 29 Technika gas cooker models\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\u003e500mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFitting must be done by a gas fitter\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn Australia, work on gas appliance safety devices must be carried out by a licensed gas fitter. They will turn off the gas and power, route the new thermocouple along the same path as the old one, and tighten it into the valve without overtightening. The tip must sit in the flame correctly, and the burner is then tested to make sure it stays lit and shuts off when the flame goes out.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eQuestions about this part\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCan I fit a thermocouple myself?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNot legally in Australia unless you're a licensed gas fitter. A badly fitted thermocouple can stop the flame failure safety from working. Order the part, check the 500mm length and your model, and have a licensed gas fitter install it.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Universal","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44551258275918,"sku":"30401800002_G","price":52.5,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0768\/3489\/7998\/files\/30401800002-generic-oven-thermocouple-500mm.jpg?v=1792026513","url":"https:\/\/partsshop.com.au\/products\/30401800002-generic-oven-thermocouple-500mm","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
