Clearly, the bulb was the problem. The gasket is an invitation to more trouble.
Simple. But beware changing just the bulb when the gasket is not secure.

spark module failure, wouldn't spark.
The repair was fairly straightforward, much easier the second time around. The first part was defective. (irregular spark). I reordered and installed the new one. It works, but nowhere near as good as the original.The problem is that the frequency of the spark on these replacement modules is only once per second. To get technical, the gas as presented to the spark is turbulent, causing several sparks to occur before the ideal mixture coincides with the spark. Needless to say, there is an excess of gas wafting around the kitchen until it lights, sometimes in excess of 20 seconds. NOT SAFE! Our BBQ and fireplace insert spark orders of magnitude faster than this.

Both left and right door hinges broke off their pins
The first time I took the door apart to see what part to order it was difficult. The second time I knew what I was in for and was more prepared. Replacing the hinges were no problem. It was taking apart the door that was more difficult.

hinge on oven door broken
I have KitchenAid convection oven that is about ten years old . The hinge on the left hand side broke so I had to replace it. It took me about 2 hours to get the job done because I cleaned the door as I went . The change out while fairly strait forward did take some time . A lot longer the some of the people said .

Gas broiler stopped working
I unscrewed the igniter from the top of the oven, and removed the back panel of the stove. I had a friend in the back while I jiggled the two wires to see which ones they where. Then I had to use two pliers to pull the connectors apart. I tied a string to the two wires and pulled them out through the oven and left the string and tied the new wires to the string and pulled the new wires through the back of the stove, and replaced the back and screws.
