Hi,
I have a Jotul DV 400 (Sebago) that is shutting off due to extreme temperatures at the gas valve. It seems as if the gas valve has a heat shutoff sensor. I've replace the gas valve and the whole pilot assembly but neither has helped. If I remove the valve and place it further away from the bottom of the stove, it stays cool and runs fine. Obviously that isn't the right way or even safe way to run the system so I am looking for any help or assistance. I removed the actual burn plate and it wasn't clogged up. I haven't replaced the main line though. I have another stove, a lopi berkshire, and the valve on that stays very cool. If anyone has seen this before and has a remedy, I'd greatly appreciate it.
Thanks!
