Thermo couple may be defective. Disconnect oven, look inside oven it will be a 2-4 inch tube looking brass type metal. use ohm meter check continuity if non then most likely its defective. other then that it may be the control board.

The pilot adjustment screw is located on the back side of the oven temperature thermostat. Lift the cook top to access it. Use a flat screwdriver to adjust... counter clockwise= bigger flame.

There is no way to light the oven manually. The gas valve will not open until the oven ignitor draws enough current. But replacing the ignitor will fix ya up.

I have a delay when trying to turn on to use the over, then an exploding sound. What is this? Is the ignitor going bad?

SOURCE: Hello, Can't find model/serial number.
Serial number labels are usually located in any one of a number of places -
Under the cooktop in one of the corners
Inside the oven door frame (not on the door)
Behind the bottom drawer pullout on the oven, left hand side
Oven back.
If this unit is anything less than 20 years old, there will be a label somewhere.
