The oven was not igniting. The heating element was not turning red hot.
First, I pulled out the two lower drawers to access the gas shut off valve. Turned it off by using adjustable wrench and turning counter-clockwise. Then I removed the old igniter - and pulled the two wires and twist caps thru the back hole. it had continuity, but it was 220 ohms. Google research said if the resistance is too high, not enough current will flow to flip the safety valve and/or heat the heating element.
Order the replacement. When I unboxed it, I measured the resistance at 176 ohms. I thought that was a bit high. Installed it anyway, and after turning on the gas at the shut off valve, I turned on the oven. I immediately heard a snap/pop - and found the heating element had broken. I called PartSelect - and they immediately sent me another one - giving me a refund for the first one to cancel out the charge, then charging me anew for the second one.
The second one measured resistance at 68 ohms. That was much better - since resistance in igniters increase with age - 68 is good compared to 220 ohms. Needless to say - re-installed, and it worked like a charm.
Tip - you can remove the oven doors. Each door hinge has a latch. Flip them up. Door lifts straight out. Made the job so much easier.

Removed old ignighter and replaced it with the new one. No brainier. Took longer to find the correct part, mine had three wires, most are just two.

Only one and a half burners worked.
I just had to lift the top of the stove. Then pull the old burners out and put the new ones. It took longer to ignite the flame than replace the burner. Works great !!!

The knob that turns on the gas fire broke so I ordered a new one.
I really didn't have a clue as to where to get one so I just went without a knob not using the burner for about a year. Then I decided to call a handyman. He said the part would cost $20 and labor would be $50. I said forget it. I immediately got on my iPad and researched. I found the exact part! It came in less than 30 hours of ordering it. Then I opened the plastic bag with the knob in it, and it fit exactly right into place. And Voila! I could finally use that burner again. It was so easy to Install, no,tools necessary. It fit right into place ! I should have done that earlier had I known it would be so easy!
