Kenmore 79094472802 electric range Parts

To reset a Kenmore electric range like model 79094472802, we restore power and then reprogram the clock and any oven settings. After a power interruption, the range can resume operation when power returns, so we always turn the controls OFF first, then reset the clock per the 79094472802 owner's manual.

• Turn all surface burner knobs to OFF.
• If the oven is running, press CANCEL/OFF (or the OFF key) to stop cooking.
• Turn power OFF at the breaker for 1 minute (or unplug the range if accessible).
• Restore power.
• Reset the clock and re-enter any desired oven settings.
• Test BAKE at 350°F for 10 to 15 minutes to confirm normal heating.

Your range has an Oven Lockout feature that disables most oven controls until it is cleared.

• Press and hold the Oven Lockout pad for 3 seconds.
• Wait for the door to fully unlock and for LOC to clear.

A power interruption can cause the range to restart when electricity returns. Turning everything OFF first, then restoring power and resetting the clock, prevents unexpected heating and gets the electronic oven control back to normal operation.

For Kenmore electric range model 79094472802, the model and serial number are on the range’s identification plate. On this model, the plate is located on the right side of the oven front frame in the storage or warmer drawer compartment; the exact location is shown in the 79094472802 owner’s manual.

• Pull out the storage drawer or warmer drawer and look along the right-side front frame
• Use a flashlight and look for a silver or white rating label with Model and Serial fields
• Wipe the frame edge with a damp cloth, then dry it; grease can hide the print
• Write down the full model number and serial number before ordering parts

1. Turn the range off and make sure it is cool.
2. Open and fully remove or slide out the storage/warmer drawer.
3. Inspect the right side of the oven front frame inside the drawer opening.
4. Record the model number (often begins with 790.) and the serial number.

Kenmore 790-series ranges can use different oven controls, surface element switches, and sensors depending on the exact model and configuration. Using the full model number prevents ordering the wrong part.

If your Kenmore electric range model 79094472802 oven is not getting hot, the most common causes are a control setting issue, a power problem, or a failed heating/temperature-sensing component. Start with the clock and control settings, then check for error codes and test the oven temperature sensor.

• Set the clock; on this model the oven may not operate until the time of day is set (see the 79094472802 owner's manual).
• Confirm you selected the correct cooking mode (Bake vs. Broil vs. Convection) and pressed Start.
• Check for a household power issue (tripped breaker, partial power to the range).
• If the control is beeping and showing an F code, press Clear/Off, then reprogram the oven.
• If you recently had a power interruption, reset the oven; some features (such as Sabbath mode behavior) can keep the oven from resuming normally.

A no-heat or low-heat complaint usually points to one of these:

If the oven temperature is inaccurate or the control behaves erratically, the oven temperature sensor is a top suspect. For this model, use the frigidaire range oven temperature sensor 316490000.

An electric oven needs correct power, correct control inputs, and accurate temperature feedback. If the sensor reads wrong, the control can limit heat or shut heating down early, so the oven never reaches the set temperature.

• Turn off power at the breaker before accessing wiring or removing panels.
• Do not line the oven bottom or walls with foil; it disrupts heat distribution and can damage the oven interior.
