I was disappointed that directions did not come with the part, as I had never before made this repair. However, I turned off the gas connection, unscrewed the oven from its place in the wall, then removed the racks in the oven. Next, I loosened the nuts and screws of the pilot assembly in the oven and loosened the connection on top under the stove. Behind the stove, the copper wire of the thermocouple was fastened together with the others, so I disconnected that and removed the assembly. Next, I uncoiled the new copper thermocouple wire and fed its stove connection through the top rear of the stove, fit it to the connection, and tightened it. Then I fed the other end (with the pilot) through the back of the stove and connected it to the pilot brace. Tightened nuts into place, replaced oven racks, and screwed oven back into the wall. Turned on the gas, lit the pilot, and it immediately lit the stove! I would really have preferred directions, though. I felt intimidated by the whole thing, doubting myself as I made every step. So many ways to screw up...
