The broiler glows bright orange but still doesn't light. No gas comes out in either situation. Could a bad oven ignitor cause the broiler not to work too or is there another problem behind this? I am going to get a new ignitor and try that but if anyone has any ideas in the meantime please let me know. Thanks.

You can replace one at a time or both together. - The part number for the oven igniter (bake & broil) AP2014008 Gene.

If I replace just the oven one first will that allow the oven to light up or do they both have to be good for either one to work?
