Cool you recognize the fact that the igniter is turning on you are obvisouly tech savy so I will dispense with the usual amenities and give you a technicians answere.. igniter gets power and when it reaches max current opens gas valve as time goes on igniter still glows red but doesn,t generate enough current to open gas valve change the igniter first (cheap) if it doesent work check your gas pressure ( need a guy with a special meter) if pressure is too high ( not very common) valve has trouble over comming pressure to open if pressure is ok then time to change out main gas valve Good Luck

Our rheem gas pack running on propane will turn not always ignite

have you cleaned the flame sensor located on the
far left side of the burners?. Watch it go through the
cycles.

Igniter glows, gas valve turns on and gas ignites. If it gets that far and shuts down, it sounds like a dirty
flame sensor,clean it with sand paper.

This sounds like a flame sensor problem. No signal from sensor will shut down gas valve. Check flame sensor position in flame/or replace

GE Spectra TrueTemp Oven Pilot is Out

REmove bottom panel from stove. shut gas off for at LEAST 5 min. Longer is better. Then placel open flame above gas nozzle, slowly turn to ignite posiiton. After it is lit, wait 30 seconds and turn to on positon.
If by chance this model doens't have a knob for this, then turn gas valve off for 5 min, let fumes evaporate, light flame, place over nozzle, turn gas on.replace bottom oven panel slowly.
