No heat in oven. Broiler heats fine; stovetop burners work fine. Removed temp sensor probe and tested at 1.09k at room temperature. Was instructed to test amps of igniter (should be 3.3-3.6 I was told). Haven't had a chance to test that yet. But, if the amps check out, what is the next step?

Hi.

If the ignitor glows most likely it's not pulling enough amps to open the gas valve. Replace the ignitor

Part number: WB13K21
