Oven Doesn't Heat - Replace Ignitor
The problem with the gas oven was with the igniter. It controls the gas flow and lighting of the flame.
This is the new igniter. Not too expensive and not that difficult to change out.
I bought it on Amazon for $27.
Comparing the old and the new igniter. You can see that they match, but almost any generic igniter will work.
The hard part was to remove the sheet metal side walls, expose the wires and make the new connection. Then just bolt the new part on.
Overall it was pretty easy though. And the new igniter worked great. The flames lit in under 1 minute, vs 5 minutes or not at all.

We had the problem one day where we preheated the oven, came back and the oven wasn't hot at all.
The next day it did eventually heat, the flame caught, but it took a long time to light the gas.

This is the old igniter. You have to remove it from the frame and get to the 2 wires.
