2005 model. A problem just started: When I shut the stove off, after all the blowers have shut down, the ignitor starts up and will stay red hot until I unplug stove from electrical outlet. No lights are flashing. Left for weekend to return and discover that the ignitor had been on for 3 days! Could it be the control panel? Thanks for any suggestions.

Sure sounds like it.
 
Newer Winslows use the proof of fire switch to control the igniter. It may be a bad switch. Try connecting the terminals on the proof of fire switch together on one side and see if it runs and the igniter is off. If not, it is a control board.

Here is the wiring diagram on p.24
