If the oven is wired properly and correct polarity on the outlet, here is the power flow.
Power will come from the control board relay, through the ignitor, then goes to ground through the dual valve.
The resistance of the ignitor causes it to heat up, the hotter it gets the more power goes to the valve. When the amp draw gets to about 3.2 amps there is enough power for the valve to open and let the gas into the burner.
It is unusual for both the bake and broil functions to fail at the same time. They are separate circuits. The dual valve is actually 2 separate coils inside one housing.
If you have continuity through the ignitors and continuity through the valve coils, check the wiring from the valve to ground. These should be the white wires that come from the valve and connected together before going on to the main neutral connection.
Let me know what you find.
Thanks, Mike

Replace the ignitor. You will need remove the bottom plate (remove the two screws back corners). And the disconnect the wiring from behind. This little part will cost you approx. $100.

Hi. This sounds like a weak igniter, the symptoms usually are: burner won't light, or takes longer than normal to ignite the burner, may or may not smell gas in the oven, does not maintain set temperature or burner does not come on fully. On gas ovens, a glo igniter is like a light bulb, the more you cook, the faster it wears out. Bottom line, needs to be replaced. Good luck.
