everything works fine except for the oven the only way to get the oven to light is have one or more burners on (this is a propane range). the oven will then preheat . some times when the oven burner comes on it sounds like a jet. if a burner is not left on the oven will not come on again when heat is called for to maintain the temp. the igniter looks the same as the broiler. when the broiler is used it comes on with no problem.

Remove the bake burner. Unscrew the orifice and clean it. Turn the orifice CW to the end, then turn it CCW for one full turn and check the flame without the flame spreader in place. Normally it suppose to be about 1/2" length, distinct inner, blue flame. The air shutter should be full open for LP gas. If the flame is less than 1/2", unscrew the orifice as needed.

Here are the break down diagrams for the Maytag range Model PGR5710BDQ
