Oven Won't Stay Lit

Only bake mode: (Broiler is OK) Oven won't stay lit after 20 seconds. I get the initial click and ignition of the burner....then after 20 seconds the gas turns off. Is it possibly the gas valve in the oven or the electronic control unit telling it to shut off? If I play with the bake button after 20 times (or so) it will eventually stay on and work well of one or two bake cycles. What are the part numbers for the defective part. I have the owners manual and the installation manual...but there are no parts diagram.Thank you.Larry Briand

Hi, According to the Whirlpool service pointer cause of the intermittent Bake burner operation is improper air flow to the burner.


The correction is to replace the Bake burner with the new modified burner and igniter assambly.
Find its model number and replace it.
