We bought a 2019 Cyclone 4200. The oven goes out a minute or two after starting and lighting. ANyone have any ideas?

The thermocouple, located next to or just above the pilot light, generates the voltage to hold the gas solenoid open when it heats up. If the oven burner is igniting, the thermocouple is working well enough to open the gas valve. So if the burner stays on for a minute or two and then closes, I would think the thermocouple is probably working.

Is the burner flame full for the entire minute or two, or does it shrink. Shrinking would suggest a propane flow problem.

It goes out a little at a time in pieces if that make sense.

That sounds like it's starved for propane.

Are you certain that you have propane in the tanks? If so, close the tank valves and re-open the valves verrrrrry slowly so the overflow protection device doesn't get triggered.

100 gallon propane tank. Living in it for now but will try that.
