My oven ignites fine but shuts itself off after a few minutes despite all four burners working fine. The amount of time my oven stays on varies, so I am unsure if this is dependent on temperature.

What it will do if you put the oven thermostat on a higher temperature?

How good is the pilot light when you turn the oven "on"?

The oven tends to remain lit till it reaches 300 degrees (or about 5 minutes) if I open it up all the way, and a lot less for lower temperature. I noticed that after turning the oven on, it needs time to cool before being able to turn it on again.
The pilot light has never given me any trouble. The flame has remained the same size since I've had it, and it has always increased slightly when the turning the oven on.

Looks like the problem is a bad oven thermostat.

- The part number for the oven thermostat is AP2633814
