The gas oven does not light. The 4 top burners & broiler work. What should I look for to repair this?

A start will be observing what the oven ignitor is going at the time of failure.

Your oven used a 'hot surface' (glow ignitor) ignition system. You can read about how they work and what observations and tests are require to diagnose problems with them at the following link:

LINK > Understanding Gas Oven Ignition Systems

Components on your model which are suspect for your complaint (depending on the exact symptoms) are as follows:

LINK > Magic Chef CGR3742ADC Oven Ignitor

LINK > CGR3742ADC Oven Gas Valve

LINK > CGR3742ADC Electronic Control
