What it is

A pilot-flame safety thermocouple sold as a Johnson & Starley type replacement, catalogued under the reference T111-500/M9. It sits in the pilot flame and generates a small millivolt signal that holds the boiler's gas valve open, cutting the gas supply automatically if the pilot goes out.

Signs this part needs replacing

  • Pilot light won't stay lit once the control knob is released
  • Main burner won't ignite despite a visible pilot flame
  • Weak or unstable millivolt reading on test
  • Corrosion, scorching or a damaged lead

Before you order

  • Match the part number on your existing thermocouple against T111-500/M9
  • Isolate the gas supply before removing the old thermocouple
  • Gas Safe registered engineer required for fitting
