SOURCE: Kenmore Gas Range - burners won't ignite
its possible your gas regulator is bad or the gas line to the ignitor is stopped up look at the line and see if some type of food has blocked the outlet
SOURCE: KENMORE GAS STOVE OVEN LOWER BURNER WON'T WORK
bad oven ignitor is the most common cause of bake failure, located onthe side of hte burner bar itself, if youd like with a multi-meter, you can check the wires leading to the ignitor for 110v. if you have power and nothing was glowing from ignitor theres your problem
SOURCE: oven produces soot when running, broiler ok, stove top ok
Al, you need to seat the needle valve on the bake. Remove the bottom drawer, right below the bake burner you will see the nut just below the air shutter adjustment. Turn this nut clockwise a few times, it might seem hard but just do it. Then try the bake again, you should have a nice bluel flame. Tenbears.

Thanks for providing the full model number, which allows us to look up part numbers and see exploded views of your product.
Most likely the bake ignitor is bad (even if it still glows, it may not draw enough amperage to allow the gas safety valve to open). One way you can test this on your model is to swap out the broil ignitor for the bake ignitor, as they are the same part number on your model. (part number WB13T10045) The broiler is normally used much less than the oven, so the part does not fail very often on the broiler. You will have to take the cover off the floor of the oven, then the flame spreader, to reach the burner area. The ignitor is the rectangular part at the back, on the side of the burner. (only two wires to deal with) (By the way, for future reference, your model number ends is SS, as in stainless steel, not a 55)

All your oven features are controlled by the Electronic Range Control (ERC) board. This is your clock/timer assembly. Unfortunately, most do not have fuses and are not serviceable. You will probably need to replace the board. The following link explains how:

Replacement circuit boards can be purchased on line at any of the following websites:

Prices vary between these sites, so shop and compare. For the model number you have listed, the part number for a new board is 316207511.
NOTE: The overlay, which is the plastic template with the numbers and letters preprinted on it, does not come with the new board. It has to be purchased seperately. However, if the current overly is still in good shape, it can be peeled off the old circuit board and reused. The part number (if required) is 316220841.
