The top one works great, I can hear it click, ignitor lite, and gas fire up in no time. But bottom oven not so good. Ignitor lights, stays on, and temp reads 100 degree for at least 10 minutes. Looks like no gas being let in, and not hearing anything…please help…MJ

Most likely the problem is a weak igniter.

maybe its a gas valve or something?

Even if the igniter glows, the current drawn by the igniter can be not enough to open the gas valve. You can learn how oven igniter works from one of our previous posts: http://forum.appliancepartspros.com/oven-repair-including-ranges-cooktops/1897-oven-wont-lite.html

You can measure the current drawn by the igniter. It it’s 3.2 amps or less, the igniter is the culprit.
