Problem identified: it was a "faulty igniter," which was drawing only around 2.9 amps, when a minimum of 3.5 is necessary before the gas will switch on. As expected, part cost $56, and I would have had to pay the rest anyway if I'd waited for the warranty people on Monday. Guy had it fixed within half an hour, and having watched him do it once, I feel pretty sure I could do it myself next time (perhaps on the upper oven, if/when that one craps out on me.)
