The igniter is rectangular ceramic type, and the bracket appears to be fastened with sheet metal screws to the burner and the back of the oven. I suspect the igniter, please give me your professional advise. Can it be replace without having to come through the back of the oven, i.e. remove the sheet metal screws, disconnect the pwer source and replace? Thanks for your help.

Take a resistance reading of the glowbar, this will tell you if it is bad or not, you should get a reading of 50-150ohms, if not replace the glowbar.
