How to find Kenmore Range model number?
For Kenmore electric range model 91195371790, the model number is printed on a rating label attached to the range. On most 30-inch free-standing ranges, you will find it in the oven door area (door jamb/frame) or on the frame behind the storage drawer.
Where to look on the range
Check these common label locations first:
- Open the oven door and look along the door frame (left or right side) and the front edge of the oven cavity
- Pull out the bottom storage drawer and look on the frame behind it
- Check the back panel near the power cord entry area
- Look on a side panel near the lower front (less common)
What the label looks like (and what to copy)
The rating label usually includes several identifiers. Copy the full model number exactly as shown.
| Label item | What it’s used for | Example format |
|---|---|---|
| Model number | Correct parts lookup and diagrams | 911.95371790 or 91195371790 |
| Serial number | Date/production tracking for service | Letters and numbers |
| Electrical rating | Confirms power requirements | Volts/amps |
Why it matters
Kenmore ranges often share similar designs across multiple model series, and small model-number differences can change the correct bake element, door hinge, surface element, or control switch. Using the exact model number helps us match the right parts the first time.
If the label is hard to read
- Wipe gently with a damp cloth and mild dish soap; dry completely
- Use a flashlight at an angle to make faded print easier to see
- Take a close-up photo and zoom in
- If a digit is missing, compare the characters to the model list shown in the 91195371790 owner’s manual

How to tell how old a Kenmore stove is?
To tell how old your Kenmore range model 91195371790 is, use the serial number from the model and serial tag and decode the manufacturing date from that serial. The 91195371790 owner's manual confirms the model family and helps you locate the identification tag.
Step 1: Find the model and serial tag
On Kenmore 30-inch electric ranges like 91195371790, the tag is typically in one of these spots:
- On the oven frame behind the oven door (open the door and check the front frame)
- On the storage drawer frame (pull the drawer out and look along the opening)
- On the lower side trim near the oven opening
- On the back panel (less common)
Step 2: Use the serial number to decode the date
Kenmore model numbers identify the product line; the serial number is what carries the build date code. For model 91195371790, the 911 prefix indicates the original manufacturer family; decode the serial using that manufacturer’s date-code format.
| What you have | What it tells you | What to do |
|---|---|---|
| Model number: 91195371790 | Identifies the Kenmore range series and manufacturer family (prefix 911) | Use it to choose the correct serial-number decoder |
| Serial number | Contains the production date code (year and often week or month) | Decode it to determine the manufacture date |
Serial date-code patterns you’ll commonly see
These are the most common formats used across major range manufacturers:
- Year + week (two digits for year plus a 1 to 2 digit week number)
- Week + year (week number first, then year)
- Letter for month + digits for year (letter maps to a month sequence)
- Julian day code (001 to 365 plus a year digit)
Why it matters
Knowing the manufacture date helps us match the correct wiring, controls, and heating components for your exact configuration. For example, if you are diagnosing weak baking or uneven oven heat, confirming the correct replacement bake element such as the g.e. range bake element WB44K5012 prevents fit and wiring mismatches.

What replacement parts are most commonly needed for the 91195371790?
For the Kenmore 91195371790 electric range, the most commonly replaced parts are the oven heating elements (bake and broil), cooktop radiant surface elements, and the oven light bulb and lens. Door hardware and the oven door gasket are also frequent needs as the range ages.
Commonly replaced parts for this model
These are the parts we see customers replace most often on electric ranges like the 91195371790, and several are available for this model:
- Oven bake element: restores baking heat when the oven will not heat or heats unevenly (see g.e. range bake element WB44K5012)
- Oven broil element: restores top heat for broiling and preheat assist (see broilunt 240 WB44X232)
- Radiant surface element (cooktop): fixes a burner that will not heat or cycles incorrectly (see range radiant surface element, 8-in WB30T10045)
- Oven light bulb and lens: fixes a dark oven cavity (see 40a15bulb 40A15 and light lens WB25T10042)
- Oven door gasket: improves temperature stability and reduces heat loss (see oven door gasket WB2K5319)
Quick symptom-to-part guide
Use this as a fast way to narrow down what you likely need.
| Symptom | Most likely part(s) | What you may notice |
|---|---|---|
| Oven will not bake | Bake element | No heat from bottom, long preheat |
| Broil does not work | Broil element | No top glow, weak broil |
| One cooktop burner not heating | Radiant surface element | Cold burner, uneven cycling |
| Oven light not working | Light bulb, light lens, light switch | No light, broken cover |
| Oven not holding temp | Door gasket | Excess heat around door, longer cook times |
How to confirm before you order
We recommend these checks to avoid buying the wrong part:
- Compare your symptom to the guide above and inspect the part for visible damage (blisters, breaks, heavy pitting).
- Verify the correct part by matching your model number (91195371790) and using the diagrams.
- If you use a multimeter, test elements for continuity with power disconnected.
- For the oven light, the manual specifies a 3 1/2-inch, 40-watt appliance bulb; replace the bulb first, then inspect the lens and switch.
Why it matters
Heating and door-seal parts directly affect temperature accuracy, preheat time, and cooking results. Replacing a weak element or worn gasket typically restores normal baking and helps prevent uneven cooking.
For part locations and basic procedures (like replacing the oven light bulb), use the 91195371790 owner's manual.
