Thermocouple on wok ring appear to be malfunctioning. (Gas ignites but goes out when control know is released).
Before I dismantle things to get at the underside of the hob is the replacement of a thermocouple on a gas hob a major operation or is just a bit of un-screwing involved?

I have found that by jiggling the top into a certain position the ring works again.

Check carefully that a flame plays on the thermocouple tip, and that the particular hole aimed at it isn't blocked.

I bit the bullet. Bought new thermocouple and with much fiddling replaced it to discover the problem wasn't with that. So the Miele engineer is on his way, at exorbitant cost

Well when I got home SWMBO had spent the day at the hairdressers and hadn't phoned Miele service.
Thinking on Mr Gabriel's comments I had another look and true enough no flame was getting to the thermocouple. After a bit of faffing I pulled the jet, blasted compressed air through it and BINGO, it works now.
Well done Mr Gabriel. I owe you one.
Double winner. Got the ring working and was able to have a go at SWMBO for not cleaning it right !
