I have a GE gas oven. The pilot light won't come on. It's not the
kind with the pilot light on at all times. I think the pilot light is
triggered electrically. Anyway, stove top works just fine. Just the
oven pilot light will not work. Since the pilot light doesn't come
on, there's no gas either.

Any recommendations?


Light it with a match.

No, IIRC, If its like the older ones, there is a safety valve that has to
heat up from the pilot to turn the gas on.
