Does the igniter glow when you turn the oven control On?

If it does but does not light the flame, replace the igniter.

If it does not, check for 120 VAC to the igniter while the control calls for heat.

If the voltage reading is correct, replace the igniter.

If the voltage reading is incorrect, post the results.

The igniter is the culprit. No doubt about it.
