Cooker bought 1996. No previous problems.
It sounds like low gas pressure. This is controlled by a regulator that needs checking. This is not a recommended DIY project.

greg, sounds like your needle valve is not seated. Remove the bottom drawer. Look back to the base of the burner where the shutter air adjustment is. Right under there is the valve which should have a 1/2 inch or 7/16 nut. (I Forgot what size). Turn this nut clockwise until the flame is adjusted to the correct size, should be a nice blue flame. The nut maybe hard to turn because you are seating the needle. Catriver..post back

Shut off the oven for at least a minute and turn it on, set the clock, and it worked. I had tried a short power cycle before and it didn't fix it. The extended power cycle did the trick.

the part that you need is the oven ignitor, located nest to the oven burner. that part gets hot to open the gas to the burner, that will make the oven work again.

The manifold needs to be cleaned and adjusted could have rust etc in it Not a good thing to do yourself unless you know what you are doing
SOURCE: Oven will not respond
try pressing the oven regulator knob for a while 3 to 5 seconds on ignition its a safty thing so kids cannot gas themselves all cookers have them. you have to hold it in.
