Mend Ocean Style FF Boiler Help Pilot Light Stay

OCEAN COMBI BOILER STYLE FF...pilot not staying on?

Help please
Pilot light will not stay on once button released.
Have replaced thermocouple (general type from local plumbing shop) and disconected the overheat thermostat. Before changing the gas valve could you suggest anything else to check that could prevent the pilot light staying on.
Prior to light going out boiler has run faultlessly for many years.
Thanks

my computer was not working so i could not see your response. The flame flares up to once the tap/heater is on but still goes out when 20secs later the the orange light kicks in for the same amount of time which then produces cold water.

My ocean combi boiler 240 is not working properly. The orange light stay on and does not switch off also the hot water gets very hot and soon after gets very cold, like water from the cold water tap without having to switch of the hot water tap.
