Igniter was failing to get hot enough to ignite the gas.
It was a very simple repair pulled the old ignitor, and installed the new one in under 15 minutes. It was nice that it was a factory original part and matched perfectly. The wiring plug matched so no need to cut the plug and get ceramic wire nuts. The ignitor works perfectly and gets white hot rather than dark orange, the gas ignites in 20 seconds compared to 90 seconds.

Oven would not get to temp. Igniter glowed but no gas to burner.
Easy. Slide oven away from wall. Turn gas off and unplug. Open oven door. Remove grates and lift out bottom tray to access igniter. Igniter is affixed to burner tube using (QTY=2) 1/4” bolts. Used socket wrench due to limited space for nut driver handle length. Detach igniter. Got to back of oven and remove the protective plate at the bottom. There are three phillips screws. Verify you have the correct cable for igniter by tugging on igniter in oven. Pull old igniter out. Replace old igniter with new using old bolts! Run igniter cable through back using same hole as old igniter. Plug in connector in the same fashion as prior. Before reassembly, test oven. Plug oven in and turn gas back on. Set oven to bake and set temperature. If igniter lights the gas burner tube, you’re done! Reverse process to put oven back together. Job takes 20 minutes, maximum. Saved a bundle!

Broken handle on oven
The repair was quite simple. All I had to do was unscrew the five screws to remove the old handle, line up the new handle and screw it in. I was once again able to use my oven without fear of the glass falling out and breaking every time I opened the door.

Oven door glass not secured at bottom; when opened, glass swings out and catches against broiler drawer, preventing oven door from fully opening.
1. Make sure oven is off and completely cool.
2. Remove any towels, potholders, etc from handle or oven face.
3. Lay out large bath towel or blanket flat on floor nearby.
4. Open oven door partially (45° angle or less).
5. Remove 3 screws securing oven door upper trim. These screws also go through the side trim pieces. Set the screws and the upper trim aside.
6. Push tops of side trim pieces out just far enough that they are not against the side of the oven door glass. Do NOT fully remove the side trim.
5. Remove 2 screws securing handle and glass from the rest of the door. Set these aside, separate from the oven door upper trim and screws.
6. CAREFULLY lift glass (handle still attached) vertically from door assembly and place on large bath towel, preferably handle side against the towel to keep towel fibers out of oven door interior.
7. Close oven door.
8. Place clip(s) in lower door edge slots (this part is fairly straightforward, as the clips only fit one way, with the u channel facing upright and outward).
9. Retrieve oven door glass and place bottom edge of glass into the u channel of the chips.
10. Carefully open oven door. You can brace the handle with your knee to keep everything aligned as you secure the handle screws back in place.
11. Move the side trim pieces back against the glass sides.
12. Realign the oven door upper trim and secure it with its screws. The outer screws will go through the side trim pieces as well.

The side trim on the glass door needed to be replaced.
After we put the latch pins in, the door was easily lifted off. We placed the door on the table and unscrewed the trim pieces. The new trim pieces went into place after we cleaned the door. We slipped the door back on the oven and removed the hinge pins.

burned oven bulb
The hardest part was taking out original light bulb because screws on shield where hard to unscrew after all this years . The old bulb vent out leaving neck in socket. It took narrow electrical pliers to get neck out .The generic appliance bulb did not fit and had aluminum neck ,not recommended for brass sockets in ovens.Putting new light bulb in was not the problem.

Clip on bottom of glass door broken
At the top of the oven door, lossen the door handle. The handle also holds the top of the glass. One side at a time. Pull the bottom of the glass out far enough to see where the clip mounts. Insert clip. Wiggle the glass into it. Do the same on the other side. You may have to take the screw all the way out so be sure and hold on to the glass securely. Retighten top screws.
