Force 10 stoves, discontinued thermocouple

I have a Force 10, 2 burner stove, that is an older model. They no longer make the thermocouple for my burners and their fix is to replace the burners with the new burners. That costs $230 plus international shipping.

Has anyone figured out another way?

A company that services propane equipment might be able to fix it for you.

Re: Force 10 stoves, discontinued thermocouple

Last year I was able to order a thermocouple through west marine. There was a couple week wait timeso I ordered 2.
It fit and worked perfectly. So it surprises me to hear they are discontinued

Any hardware store should have one.

Re: Force 10 stoves, discontinued thermocouple

My cast iron caps were well rotted out and I bought 3 burners from Fisheries supply.
$99 each.
A new 2 burner stove is $1800. It is a bit of a trick installing as they are not an easy swap.
