    I have a gas stove with anti-overflow protection. The problem is that the oven burner goes out during baking. When I turn it on again, it only works until I release the knob (even if I press it for an hour). Please help. Thank you in advance
    It worked flawlessly for about a year. The problems have been present for some time. And the gas is from the network, so it's probably natural.

    maybe your minimum flame is not adjusted
    because when the temperature in the oven increases, the valve reduces the gas flow
    there is an adjustment screw on the valve for a flat screwdriver

    But it was fine before and no one was doing anything there. Moreover, there is a thermostat that maintains the set temperature. The flame is max. at the moment of heating and min. when it reaches temperature. And the knob has no influence on the size of the flame.

    at the beginning it is at max but as the temperature increases the valve reduces the flame

    Well, this is what it looks like more or less. But could it have changed on its own?

    it only deteriorates on its own :P
    try to adjust
    Preheat the oven to the maximum setting, then turn it up to setting 1 or 2

    I took off the knob, but there are no adjustment screws under it. Unless it is somewhere else.

    there is a valve on the right side or at the bottom, a bowl for a flat screwdriver

    Don't turn anything, it won't move on its own.
    the problem is in the anti-overflow protection or the valve itself is damaged. If you have some idea about this, you can check whether the safety plug has not fallen out of the valve or has become loose. You can unscrew the tray covering the burner in the oven and check if the capillary is in place (the distance between the capillary tip and the burner should be 10 mm).

    Remove the knob from the valve and hold it with pliers while doing the same thing - count to 10.

    after all, the author writes that when baking, i.e. when cold, everything is fine

    Hello. I took off the sheet metal and it looks like this. After ignition, the flame is OK, after about a minute it becomes unstable and intermittent and suddenly goes out, and you can hear a "tick" in the valve. Or maybe there is not enough air in the mixture?

    What you wrote is fine. Everything connects, the capillary is "washed" by the flame. In the next attempt, it does not go out and the flame is stable. But it has not happened yet that something has repaired itself. There is some problem. As far as I know, this capillary certain temperature, the contacts close and the valve is electromagnetic. Is that so? By the way - I am not a layman in electrical and electronic matters, but this is my first time dealing with a stove with protection, hence my ignorance.

    The amount of air is regulated by a shutter on the burner.
    You need to remove the burner (it is attached with one screw and then move it and remove it from the nozzle). There is a steel band on the burner that covers the large hole. The clamp should be set so that the gap is 3 mm for natural gas or 10 mm for cylinder gas. what you wrote recently actually looks like there is a lack of oxygen for combustion.
    As for the capillary, it looks almost as you wrote, with the difference that it does not close the contacts, but under the influence of heating, a very small voltage is generated, which causes the coil to stay in the valve.

    Hi. There is success. Everything is fine, only the wire contact was as it was. It seemed to connect, but with a slight movement of the pin, the flame went out. I cleaned it and have been burning it for an hour now. By the way, I also checked this aperture and it is indeed 3 mm. Thank you very much for all the advice, especially Wronek 19. Regards.

Topic summary

The discussion revolves around a gas stove experiencing issues with its oven burner, which turns off during baking due to suspected anti-overflow protection malfunction. The user notes that the burner worked well for about a year before problems began. Various responses suggest potential causes, including improper flame adjustment, valve issues, and insufficient air supply for combustion. Users recommend checking the valve for adjustments, inspecting the capillary for proper placement, and ensuring the air shutter on the burner is correctly set. Ultimately, the user resolves the issue by cleaning a wire contact that was causing the flame to extinguish, confirming that the air aperture was correctly set to 3 mm for natural gas.
