[@Mrbythefireside]

Gave me the confidence to open up the back of my valve and pull electromagnet out. Thanks

This is a rotisol rotisserie valve the unit is the second generation unit worked on these for years also you could only purchase from rotisol America. In southern California.

Standard thermocouples are threaded 11/32" 32TPI. Metric ones are typically M8 and M10. A M9x0.8 thread is very close to 11/32" 32TPI. If you see a "M9" thremocouple connection it is likely a standard thread described as a close metric equivalent. Those safety valve electromagnets are very reliable, but I had one fail. It only held with several times higher current than spec, more than even a new thermocouple could supply. It's only 10 turns of thick enameled wire, five on each side of the aluminum form. I carefully examined the wire for a break in the enamel that could short to the form, but didn't find a flaw. It was as if the electromagnet just stopped creating a magnetic field, or the metal disk at the end of the plunger not longer had as strong of a magnetic attraction.
