Default Magic Chef Igniter Issue

Recently the igniter for our Magic Chef oven (Model 3468XTA) died, so
we decided to replace it. We've got the part, but can't for the life of
us figure out how to install it. The instructions that came with the
igniter were very vague. We found the old oven igniter (the one that
died), but we cannot disconnect it because we can't find where the far
end leads to. It goes from the igniter down a hole in the over floor,
which we can't seem to get out. Apart from dismatling our oven
completely it's become nigh impossible to fix our problem. I've
researched our oven on two sites for Magic Chef (Maytag and one other I
can't remember) and both don't seem to support our aging oven. My
father has conveniently misplaced the oven manual over the years so
that can't help. The Maytag site had downloadable manuals but our model
number appears to be invalid. It said that all model numbers are to be
10 digits. The other site I went to claims only to do refrigerators,
freezers, and microwave ovens. Our model number is also not compatible
there either. Apart from having to either buy a new oven or pay a
repairman (neither of which we're not able to currently fund) this was
the only place I could think to look for help. Does anyone know the
answer?
