A thermal switch probably sensed the temp as too high and opened. If it did not reset when cooled down then the thermal switch is of the type that required replacement. Take it to a repair shop unless you are capable of making electrical checks and doing this safely.

REPLACED A BLOWN NIGHT LIGHT BULB - EVER SINCE IT
We see (and repair) this
a lot. The problem is on the control panel, which
we regularly repair nationwide
by mail for $39.95 postpaid in about a
week or so.
At
our Web site, you can get details of our
service, plus we have a video
available showing how to remove a typical
over the range control panel assembly in under 5 minutes.
This light failure often
occurs when a bulb goes out and the filament
shorts, or when the bulbs are removed or installed without first
unplugging the oven from the power line. Either can cause such a
failure on the controller.
The lights can can be
inoperable or stuck on or stuck in "night light" mode. Sometimes this will similarly
affect the fan operation or inside light, too, as well as other functions.
We're
happy to help you with free advice and we'd appreciate your
thoughtful rating of our answer.

The bulb is a halogen (part number 53001905). You can view the bulb at searspartsdirect.com. Type in your model number and look under the "Base/Latch Board Assembly" heading for item 6. Although it does not list the size, it does list the type and part number. Your hardware store may be able to cross this number for you and find the bulb you need.
PS There is a better view of the bulb at appliancepartspros.com. Just type in the part number above and you will see a photograph. Are you in Canada? If so, you may enquire one of these sites also to see if they will ship to Canada.
