Gene. Thank you very much for your advice! I has having the same problems with my oven and I drilled four more holes but it did not seem to make a difference. Then we made the holes bigger and it worked! Now I am curious to know why this works. How do bigger holes make a difference? Thanks so much, Amanda

Agh now I am back to square one. We drilled 4 more holes in our bake burner and it work that evening but the next day it was back to clicking 4 times, lighting and then going out with 3 seconds. Is there anything else I can try?

I removed the burner, 8 holes, drilled them out, did not fix problem. I have model # sf362lxty2 The burner will ignite, stay lit for 3to5 seconds then goes out, same with the broiler. I omed out the valve, on the broiler side, igot 194.9ohms, and on the oven side, i got 195.5 omes. All i did was clean the inside with easy off, worked great the night before, then yesterday, this problem arose AFTER cleaning????I dont want to spend money on a part i dont need. Thanks in advance Gene

You may want to replace the Bake burner. Per the model number you posted the correct Part number: 9758078
Gene. P.S. If it would not fix the problem you can return it to APP.

Well, I missed that the broil burner does the same thing.
Check the igniters for both burners. Make sure they are shiny clean and there is no grease or cleaning stuff left. Check the wires from the igniters.

Sorry about the broiler part. I did clean up the connections when i took the burner apart to widen the 8 holes. All connection are good and clean?

Looks like the spark module does not sense the flame. If there is nothing wrong with the igniters, which are the flame sensors as well, then the spark module itself is bad. - The spark module Part number: W10331686

Gene. Well, everything just started "working" fine for a couple of days, now, the broiler burner is working fine. The bake burner ignites, igniter clicks for for 3 to 5 seconds with the flame, then goes out. I took out the bake burner, cleaned the igniter, still not working correct. Can the spark module fail intermittently? Seem the bake igniter continues to spark, even though there is a flame, so could the igniter be bad because it continues to fire with the flame? I noticed the broiler igniter stops as soon as there is flame??? Thanks Gene!

Make sure the igniter is properly aligned with the burner lighting holes. If this is not the issue, then you have to order the whole bake burner because the igniter is not available separately.
Gene.
