My Caloric gas oven takes about 15-25 minutes to reach the selected oven temp. i.e. 375 degrees will take 20 or more minutes to get that hot. Any idea whats wrong? The ignitor glows red and the gas flows when I uncover the elements to see what is happining. Help!! Wife is asking for a new Oven.

Sounds like the igniter is not reaching the correct amp draw. If the igniter doesn't reach the correct amp draw it can glow and partially open the gas valve. Here is a link that will walk you thru troubleshooting your problem. Gas Oven Troubleshooting Video

Thanks Badbackguy. It sounds like I should per your read, get a new igniter. My other problem is the serial # on my oven has partially worn away, so all I can read is RSX or RSK 3700 ??? This leaves me guessing which part to look for on web stores? any Ideas? Its 1994 or 1995 Caloric gas "ultra Ray Broiler" w/ 9BTU and 7 BTU burners.
Thank you Steve R.
