Oven failed to heat up
Turn gas off. Remove front door by pulling the lock covers back and pulling door up. Remove all cooking racks. Push back and lift enamel cover plate. Remove heat shield. Either use crosstip screwdriver or nutdriver (ratchet driver works as well, all the ovens have a different size nut/screw so check your size) and remove ignitor. Remove small shield and gas burner tube from pan. Remove all nut/screws from pan, lift up and pull towards front (ignitor can not go through pan) exposing electrical connector behind insulation. Disconnect and pull through pan. Replace pan (I had to replace older pan due to rust) and push connector from new ignitor through hole and connect to plug. Push pan in attach new ignitor (easier) to gas tube burner and place burner back through hole. Reattach shield and burner to tube to pan. At this point I tested the new ignitor which worked perfectly. Turn off oven. Place heat shield over burner tube. Replace enamal cover plate. Replace oven racks. Place door and lock holders on the hinges. Easy. BTW I am 70 and it took me just at 25 minutes with set up for tools, door, rack and enamel cover removal, heat shield removal and then the more labor intensive nut/screw removal, old ignitor and gas burner tube removal, pan removal, new ignitor replacement, new pan replacement, gas tube with shield attachment, heat shield attachment, enamel cover, grill racks and door attachment. Perfect parts fit well work well.

Broiler worked, no oven
Other people had problems removing screws for igniter and broke them off. The best way to prevent this is to initially tighten the screw and then loosen. Using this method going back and forth will prevent breaking off the screw. You will have to remove the plate on the back of the oven to access the connector. There wasn't enough slack for me to pull it through.

Halogen oven light burned out. When trying to remove old bulb, it broke off.
First, I turned off the power. I removed the fixture that held the bulb and gently used narrow type pliers to pull the old pins out and allowed the broken glass to fall upon a shop towel in the bottom of the oven.

The replacement bulb and different type of wiring connections. I cut and formed them to fit the receptacle. I gently inserted the new bulb, placed the glass cover back on. Then, screwed the unit back into the top of the oven.

Happily, when power was turned back on the light shone brightly!

The oven did not get up to or hold the correct temperature
This should have been a very easy fix. But, as I tried to pull out the old temperature sensor, the wire would not come out. I was afraid to pull too hard because I did not want to break the wire. So, I coxed it out easily until I could see the plastic connector. Then, the old wire pulled free from the connector leaving the end of the connector inside the back of the oven. I then had to fish the end of the wire around with the piece of wire through the very small hole in the back of the oven. Once I got it close to the hole, I was able to grab the connector with some needle nose plyers. Connecting the new sensor and reinstalling everything was easy and the oven now works just fine.

The oven igniter failed
The repair is not complete because the two screws that hold the igniter to the oven Burner Assembly tube were frozen in place, probably from the heat over time: One stripped and the other broke, necessitating the removal and purchase of the oven burner tube and screws.

gas smell during cooking

GE oven showed "F2" error code and was over-heating
I am not the handiest person in the world, and this repair was easy even for me. If you suspect that the temperature sensor is the problem, do yourself a favor and buy this inexpensive replacement part and install it yourself prior to calling a professional who will charge a service fee just for checking it out. Pull your oven out from the wall so you can access the back. Unscrew the small nuts on the back to remove the sheet metal cover. Find the wire that goes to the sensor and unplug the plastic coupling. In the oven, unscrew the one nut that secures the sensor to the back wall of the oven. Pull the broken sensor out and replace it with the new sensor. Feed the wire through to the back and plug the new sensor into the same wire that was just disconnected. Reinstall all of the nuts. Do a "test cook" on some frozen food to ensure that the temperature seems correct (i.e., does it cook as expected in the recommended amount of time). The actual repair takes less than five minutes. I put "30-60 minutes" to account for unplugging the oven, pulling it out, removing the screws, replacing the screws, pushing it back in, and testing the temperature.
