Dometic oven flame not adjustable

Just came back from a camping trip and noticed that my flame stays exactly the same size from the "light" setting to "450".

Any suggestions on what I should do to debug this?

This is the way normal gas consumer ovens work. There's a thermostat, a pilot and a main burner. When the set temperature is reached, the thermostat turns off the main burner but the pilot stays on and the oven slowly cools, when it cools below the thermostat's tolerance it opens the gas valve for the main burner and heats things up again.
