Here are the breakdown diagrams and Replacement parts for MAGIC CHEF CLY1610ADB RV RANGE- GAS | AppliancePartsPros.com The pilot never seem's to vary.After I replaced the thermostat unit the oven worked when I tested it,next time we tried to use it just pilot light.Thermocouple is clipped in where brackets are at.????

As soon as the oven thermostat turned on, the pilot flame has to be increased in order to provide more heat to the gas valve sensing bulb. The gas valve will open the gas to the oven burner only if the temperature sensing bulb is hot enough. The problem can be improper installation and/or adjustment of the oven thermostat or a bad pilot. - The oven pilot Part number: AP4098195
