Broil works fine - igniter healthy glow, gas supplied, lights fine
Bake has been erratic. Took off heat cover to observe. Igniter glows strongly, gas doesn't seem to show, no lighting, no bake.
Ideas?
Thanks!

Take a resistance reading of the ignitor, should be between 50-150ohms, if not in this range, replace the ignitor. If you have an ampprobe, you cann take an amp reading of the ignitor when glowing, should be about 3.2-3.7 amps, if not, replace ignitor....Post results

Replaced the bake ignitor without test via ohmeter. It just seemed to be the problem, and I didn't have the meter. Ran down to the appliance repair place for the part, put it in, and the unit works like new.
Thanks to all for the assistance.
