What happens when you turn the oven on and set it to BAKE? Does the igniter start to glow?

Set the control to bake, check the schematic, and check the bake output wire from the control, if no voltage, you probably have a bad control module. Before replacing, check the resistance of the oven sensor, if way off it's room temperature resistance( should be around 1Kohm) replace it. Click on your
Model # to get the part #.
