Oven Repair (including Ranges and Cooktops)

The oven will not light. The ignitor glows, but does not light. Smell of gas. Doesn't work on Bake or Broil. What could be the issue?

Does anyone have any advice or tips on how I can troubleshoot this? My wife is a cook-everything-from-scratch type and she needs her oven!

I have the same issue but found that if the stove top is on the oven will work. I have to put a pot of water on the stove burner every time I need to use the oven.

Thanks. Mine does not light even with the stove top lit. Let me know if you come up with a solution. I am surprised no one else has replied!
