:( Bake burner won't ignite (has spark) broil burner ignites. Replaced bake burner assembly, same problem. Replaced gas distribution valve, same problem. New gas distribution valve checked ok. Went through trouble shooting guide, had 120 VAC on both bake (J1-4, J1-6) and broil (J1-4, J1-7) terminals. Checked ERC, had 19.1 VDC on bake terminals J1-1, J1-2 but had no reading on the broil terminals J1-2, J1-3. Guide says my test shows the DSI control is bad. Put in a new DSI control and same problem, almost identical readings. HELP!!!

Remove the bake burner. Remove the igniter from the burner. Using a drill bit one size more than existing holes in the burner, make all marked holes bigger. Gene. Gene attached the following image(s):

Thanks Gene. Am traveling and will give it a try in a couple days and let you know if it worked. I have another question... since the broil and bake burners work identically, can I switch the wires on the gas distribution valve, using clips to connect the wires, to see if now the bake burner works and the broil burner doesn't?

You can verify if the problem is a bad bake burner by switching the blue (P2-2) and red (P2-4) on the control board only (per the wiring diagram). Gene.

Gene,
I switched the wires as you said, and programed the bake cycle. Now the bake burner works, but the broil burner doesn't. I programed the broil cycle and the bake burner came on, but the broil burner did not. What does this indicate?

Looks like the problem is a bad main control board (#12 on the break down diagram). In order to provide the right part number for the control board I need the color of the control panel. Gene.

The part number for the control board with the white overlay is AP3131418. Gene.
