OLD gas oven not working after resetting earthquake safety shutoff

Hi; I have a very old Westwood gas range. A couple of days ago I had to reset the earthquake safety valve outside and re-light all the pilots. The stove burners are now working but the oven and broiler are not. I don't hear the gas come up when I turn the temp dial; nothing. The oven was working fine before the safety valve shut off. I understand from reading other posts that I may have to just hit the reset button on the range. The pilot has been lit since yesterday. Is it ok to do the reset now, or how should I proceed? Any help is appreciated; thanks.

Welcome to the forums.

Hopefully that's all that happened. Earthquake

You should be able to push the reset button several minutes after relighting the pilots.
