    Does this happen on any temperature you set it on?

    check the actual temp the oil is getting to.

    If the temperature is going way too high then you could have a bad thermostat and therefore cutting out the high limit.

    Or if your pilot flame is turning off at 350 degrees then you have a bad high limit

     

    You need to know the temperature of your oil!
