Kenmore 79093009313 electric range Parts

On Kenmore electric range model 79093009313, the model and serial number are printed on an identification plate on the oven frame. Open the storage drawer and look on the lower right oven frame for the serial plate (model and serial tag). See the 79093009313 owner's manual for the exact “serial plate location” diagram.

Where to look on model 79093009313

Check these common label locations in this order:

• Open the storage drawer; look at the lower right oven frame (most common for this model)
• Look along the front frame just behind the oven door opening
• Check the back panel near the power cord entry area (if accessible)
• If the label is dirty or faded, wipe gently with a damp cloth and dry immediately

What the label looks like and what to write down

The identification plate typically includes:

• Model number (example: 79093009313)
• Serial number
• Electrical rating information (volts/amps)
• Manufacturer information

You need this for	What to use	Why it helps
Ordering parts	Model number + serial number	Ensures the correct version of switches, elements, and controls
Troubleshooting	Model number	Matches the right wiring diagram and error code set
Service calls	Model + serial	Confirms production run and compatible replacements

Why it matters

We use the model number to match the correct Kenmore range parts and diagrams for your exact configuration. Even small differences within the 790 series can change which bake element, control board, or surface element switch fits.

The Kenmore electric range model 79093009313 is a standard freestanding range; most units in this Kenmore 790 series are built to fit a 30-inch-wide range opening, with an oven cavity typically around 4 to 5 cubic feet. For the exact oven capacity and exterior dimensions for your unit, use the 79093009313 owner's manual.

What “size” can mean (and what to check)

When customers ask for oven size, it usually refers to one of these:

• Exterior width (fit in the cabinet cutout)
• Overall height (leveling legs and countertop height matter)
• Overall depth (door closed, and sometimes with handle)
• Oven capacity (cubic feet inside the oven)
• Rack size/usable interior space (varies by rack position)

Typical dimensions for a 30-inch freestanding electric range

These are common ranges for Kenmore-style freestanding electric ranges like model 79093009313:

Measurement	Typical range	What affects it
Width	~29 7/8 in to 30 in	Side panels and trim
Height	~46 in to 47 in	Leveling legs, floor height
Depth (without handle)	~25 in to 27 in	Rear panel and cord clearance
Oven capacity	~4.0 to 5.3 cu ft	Oven liner design

Why the manual is the best match for your exact unit

Kenmore 790 models often share a Use & Care Guide across multiple sub-models (the manual excerpt lists several 790.9300 and related models). That is why the 79093009313 owner's manual is the right place to confirm the exact capacity and dimensions for your specific configuration.

Quick fit tips before you buy parts or move the range

• Measure the opening width at the front and back of the cutout.
• Measure depth to the wall and allow space for the power cord.
• Confirm the oven vent location is not blocked (this model vents under the left rear surface element per the manual).
• If baking seems uneven after moving the range, re-check that the unit is level.

Yes. On Kenmore electric ranges like model 79093009313, we replace a failed oven heating element by shutting off power, removing the element’s mounting screws, pulling the element forward to access the wires, transferring the wires to the new element, then reinstalling and testing.

Before you start (safety and prep)

• Turn off power at the breaker or unplug the range; elements can stay hot after they look “off.”
• Let the oven fully cool before touching the bake or broil element.
• Do not line the oven bottom with aluminum foil; it can create a shock or fire risk.
• Use gloves and keep a firm grip on the element so the wires do not slip back through the rear wall.
• Confirm whether you are replacing the bake element (bottom) or broil element (top).

Quick steps to replace the bake element

1. Shut off electrical power.
2. Remove oven racks for working room.
3. Remove the element mounting screws (usually at the rear of the oven cavity).
4. Gently pull the element a few inches forward.
5. Disconnect the wires from the old element terminals (note positions).
6. Connect wires to the new element, push connections fully on.
7. Reinstall screws, reinstall racks, restore power, and test Bake.

Which part do I need?

For model 79093009313, the most common oven elements are:

Oven function	What it does	Matching part anchor
Bake (bottom)	Primary heating for baking/roasting	Frigidaire range bake element 316225001
Broil (top)	High heat from above for broiling	Frigidaire range broil element 316203200

Why it matters

A weak or broken heating element can cause long preheat times, uneven baking, or no heat at all. Replacing the correct bake or broil element restores normal oven temperature control and cooking performance.

For model-specific safety notes and operating guidance, follow the 79093009313 owner's manual.

To reset the Kenmore electric range model 79093009313, turn the range off and restore power with a brief power reset (unplug or switch the breaker off, then back on). After power returns, reset the clock and reselect your oven function per the 79093009313 owner's manual.

Quick reset steps (control reboot)

• Turn all surface element knobs to OFF.
• Unplug the range, or switch the range breaker OFF.
• Wait 2 to 5 minutes to clear the control.
• Restore power (plug back in, or switch breaker ON).
• Set the clock, then try Bake or Broil again.

If the reset was after a power outage

The manual notes the range should not be operated during a power failure; once power resumes, you should reset the clock and oven function. Use the clock-setting instructions in the 79093009313 owner's manual.

What to check if it still will not work

• Display is blank: confirm the breaker is fully reset (OFF then ON) and the outlet has power.
• Oven heats incorrectly or shuts off: a failing temperature sensor is a common cause; check the range oven temperature sensor 316233903.
• Broil or bake will not heat: inspect the heating element for visible damage; common replacements are the frigidaire range bake element 316225001 and frigidaire range broil element 316203200.
• Error code shows: use the Kenmore 790 range 4-digit error codes guide to match the code to likely causes.

Common “reset” methods and when to use them

Reset method	What it fixes	When to try
Power reset (unplug/breaker)	Frozen keypad, glitchy display	First step for most issues
Clock and function reset	Post-outage behavior	After any power interruption
Part replacement	Heating or sensing failures	When symptoms repeat after reset

Why it matters

A proper reset clears temporary control-board glitches and ensures the oven restarts safely after a power interruption. If a heating circuit part (bake element, broil element, temperature sensor) is failing, a reset helps confirm the problem is not just a one-time control error.
