Hello,
FOR THE OVEN NOT HEATING
The problem beleive it or not is that the bake igniter is weak ,and it is not drawing the proper amprage to open the gas valve.If you have a amp meter access the wires to the bake igniter(usually behind the storage drawer) and check for 3.3-3.6 amps when oven is set to bake by clamping the meter around ONE wire wire of igniter make sure only one wire,either one and not both.
if amp draw less than 3.3-3.6 amps replace bake igniter. I know it seems improbable that if the igniter comes on that it could be the problem.Professional appliance technicians who would charge a average of $250.00 to repair your oven,have found when the igniter comes on yet the oven won't heat that a weak igniter is the cause 100% of the time
FOR THE SURFACE BURNER NOT LIGHTING
The holes on the burner espically those around where the electrode are dirty/clogged. By using a paper clip/safety pin to push in and clear the holes then clean the burner up with some steel wool the burner should light.
GENE
Check that ignitor because it orange means nothing ,if it looks ashey whitish,,thats a bad igintor...for the top of the stove the burner,,if you see a good spark,,check and see if the burner is not blocked by a crunb or some food stuff..stick a pin in the small orffice/
