Oven when on preheat, the ignitor will ignite the gas, but then after about 45 seconds the gas goes out and then on and out again. Doesn't stay lit very long.
Broiler and burners work fine.

How long takes for the burner to light up since the control calls for Bake first time?

It never really heats up. We set it to preheat for 400 degrees. I watch for the burner to ignite. The igniter does get hot looking but not as hot as the broiler ignitor. after about 60 to 90 seconds it ignites the gas to start warming up but after about 45 seconds it goes out. It ignites again but it keeps igniting then shutting off and never stays on very long to get hot.

Most likely the problem is a bad (weak) igniter.
