thank you

actually the ignitor for the oven is on top ( the one that does not work) and the broiler ingitor on the bottom ( the one that does work )

where can i find one and about how much do these cost or is it cheaper to buy a new range?

thank you so much again

All the lights and buttons work/sound on control panel. Broiler oven works but baking element not working. Replaced baking element with new, but still doesn't work. Convection fan works, light works,...

Manufacture and model would be nice ohm out the bake element might be open some are in the oven cavity others are hidden below the lower oven plate and have to check from the rear by removing back cover in the bake mode the broil element element cycles on/off thats why you have some heat.

generally bake is the up position and broil is the lower position just try each way the broiler is on top of the oven and bake burner is on the bottom.

GE Profile Stove baking option not working

Possibly the bake igniter, the temperature sensor or the electronic oven clock/control. Does broil mode heat properly or does it run cool also? If broil heats to the proper temperature then the temperature sensor is probably ok. That leaves the ignitor or the controller which takes some more troubleshooting. If it is the controller, we repair them at www.fixyourboard.com.

GE oven bake igniter is bad ?

Yes, it should work fine to swap them. (fortunately the bake and broil igniters are often the same part number on GE gas ranges, as as opposed to many other brands) Of course now you broil will not work, but you should be able to get your oven going again.

Broiler element comes on when "bake" is pressed

does the bake element come on at all?
if so, try the oven out. do a bake @ 350 allow it to pre-heat, and see if once the pre-heat is comlete, id the broil shuts off.
on many ovens at the beginning of the cycle during pre-heat both bake and broil elements are powered.

other than that it may be a control board, or a burnt and crossed wire in the harness.
