You don\'t need to remove the top. The thermostat is the long skinny tube in the oven that comes up to the railcock behind the oven control knob, remove the front panel to get the railcock/thermostat out which has the tube attached to it.

For starters turn the electric off. Is your range gas or electric? When you turn the knobs to off do the lights stay on? What brand and model number do you have?

Try using a pair of pliers and pushing down as you turn first counter clockwise as if you are turning the gas on then back clockwise till it won't turn anymore. If it's still trying to ignite see if its the oven or make sure that its the burner that's trying to ignite . I''m not a appliance person just a home maker so if it were me and none of those things work turn off the gas to the stove unplug the power to the stove and call the gas company or appliance center. One thing though some of those type of knobs are two parts like they have to be pressed down to turn on the gas. Or the have to be set in a certain position to engage the ignite switch. If you know a little about wiring look at the switch and check the wires. But make sure before you do anything that there is no gas on.!!!

if this is a oven you are lighting would be oven thermostat would contact surplyer as faulty goods dont try repair as will void garantee
