Oven Won't Stay Hot

My SF362lXTS whirlpool gas range has been fantastic since 2008. Recently, after the oven is on for a while, it just doesn't stay hot, no issues with the display. Help! Need to bake cookies for my daughters wedding

Stay lit or stay hot as stated?

If it will not stay hot: Start off by replacing the thermostat (temp sensor) and observe. Failing ignitor will cause this.

If it will not stay lit: This would indicate the gas valve is bad here is a link were you can get it click here
But confirm this by checking between each solenoid for 216 ]7; resistance (Broil terminal to Common, and Bake terminal to Common).
NOTE: Always check both solenoids. If one of the solenoids is defective, neither one will operate. If you ohm the valve out and it check OK the DSI board on the back will need to be replaced instead.

The valve is on the back you can get to it from back there or remove the lower drawer and you will see it in the bottom in the middle. If the valve checks good the board is bad.
