Who makes Kenmore 79092803011?
Kenmore model 79092803011 is part of the Kenmore 790 model family; that prefix is widely used for ranges built by Frigidaire (Electrolux) for Kenmore. You can confirm the model and serial information on the identification plate location described in the 79092803011 owner’s manual.
How to confirm using the model tag
On this Kenmore electric range, the identification plate is typically found by opening the warmer drawer or storage drawer; the plate is attached to the lower right oven frame.
- Open the warmer drawer or storage drawer
- Look on the lower right side of the oven frame
- Verify the full model number is 79092803011
- Use the 790 prefix to identify the manufacturer family
- Record the serial number for parts matching and service
What the “790” prefix means
Kenmore uses different model-number prefixes to indicate the original manufacturer. For ranges, the 790 prefix is associated with Frigidaire-built Kenmore units.
| What you see | What it tells you | Why it helps |
|---|---|---|
| Model starts with 790 | Frigidaire-built Kenmore range | Improves parts compatibility and troubleshooting accuracy |
| Full model 79092803011 | Exact configuration | Ensures correct control board, elements, and sensors |
Why it matters
Knowing who built the range helps us match the correct Kenmore-compatible parts (like a bake element, oven control board, or temperature sensor) and use the right troubleshooting steps for Frigidaire-style electronics and error codes.

How do I reset my Kenmore electric range?
To reset your Kenmore electric range model 79092803011, turn the range off and disconnect power at the circuit breaker (or unplug it) for a few minutes, then restore power and reset the clock and any oven settings. This clears many control glitches after a power interruption.
Quick reset steps (most common)
- Turn all surface element knobs to OFF.
- Switch the range circuit breaker OFF (or unplug the cord if accessible).
- Wait 3 to 5 minutes.
- Switch the breaker ON (or plug back in).
- Set the time of day and reselect any cooking mode.
For model-specific control and clock steps, use the 79092803011 owner's manual.
If the display is blank or the range seems dead
A “reset” will not help if the range is not getting proper power. Check these items first:
- Confirm the breaker is fully reset (flip OFF, then ON).
- Verify the outlet is supplying power (ranges typically use 240V).
- If you recently moved or installed the range, recheck the power cord connections and strain relief.
- Inspect the terminal block area for loose or overheated wiring (power must be OFF first).
If you need wiring and terminal block guidance for this model, follow the 79092803011 installation guide.
When a reset points to a part problem
If the range resets but keeps acting up (random beeping, wrong temps, error codes), a component may be failing.
| Symptom after reset | Common cause | Example part for this model |
|---|---|---|
| Oven temperature swings or won’t regulate | Oven temperature sensor out of range | Frigidaire range oven temperature sensor 316490000 |
| Controls freeze, buttons act erratic | Electronic control issue | (Often the control board or wiring) |
Why it matters
The manual notes that after power resumes, the range can begin operating again unless it was turned off; resetting power and then resetting the clock and oven function helps you return the control to a known, safe state.

Where is the model number on my Kenmore electric stove?
On Kenmore electric range model 79092803011, the model and serial number are printed on an identification plate on the lower right oven frame, typically visible after you open the warmer drawer or storage drawer. Confirm the exact location in the 79092803011 owner's manual.
Where to look on model 79092803011
Check these common label locations in this order:
- Open the warmer drawer (if equipped) or storage drawer and look at the lower right front frame of the oven
- Look along the front frame behind the oven door opening (door jamb area)
- If you do not see it there, check the alternate location under the cooktop (lift-up access varies by design)
- If the range is installed tight to a wall, avoid pulling it out unless you follow the safety steps in the 79092803011 installation guide
Quick identification tips
Use these tips so you record the right information the first time:
- Write down the full model number and the serial number exactly as shown
- Take a clear photo of the plate for future parts ordering
- Clean grease or residue lightly with a damp cloth so characters are readable
- Use the model number when selecting parts like an oven control board, bake element, or temperature sensor
What you should see on the plate
| Item on the plate | What it’s used for |
|---|---|
| Model number | Matching diagrams and correct replacement parts |
| Serial number | Identifying production run details for service |
| Brand name | Confirming Kenmore product family |
Why it matters
We use the model number to match your exact Kenmore range configuration (controls, wiring, and oven features). That prevents ordering a similar-looking part that will not fit or connect correctly.

What was the size of the Kenmore 79092803011 oven?
For the Kenmore 79092803011 electric range, the exact exterior dimensions and required clearances are listed in the 79092803011 installation guide. That document is the correct source for width, height, depth, and any anti-tip bracket and spacing requirements for a proper fit.
What “size” can mean (and where to find it)
Most customers mean one of these measurements:
- Overall range width (fits between cabinets)
- Overall height (to cooktop and to the backguard/control area)
- Overall depth (often listed with and without the handle)
- Oven capacity (cubic feet)
- Clearances (side, rear, and overhead spacing)
For model 79092803011, use the dimension drawings and clearance tables in the 79092803011 installation guide.
How we recommend measuring before you buy or move the range
Use the same reference points the installer uses so your numbers match the guide:
- Measure the opening width at the front and back of the cutout.
- Measure height from the floor to the countertop and note any flooring changes.
- Measure depth from the wall to the cabinet front; then account for door swing and handle projection.
- Confirm there is room for the power cord/terminal area so the range can sit back correctly.
- Verify the anti-tip bracket location and floor or wall mounting surface.
Quick reference: which document answers which “size” question
| If you need… | Use this | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Exact width, height, depth | 79092803011 installation guide | Includes dimension drawings for fit and clearances |
| Operating details (racks, controls, features) | 79092803011 owner’s manual | Helps identify capacity-related features and rack positions |
Why it matters
Using the model-specific installation dimensions prevents common fit problems like a range that will not slide fully back, a door that hits nearby cabinetry, or unsafe clearance around wiring and heat.
