Kenmore Elite 79075403501 gas range Parts

For Kenmore Elite model 79075403501, the correct reset is the same type used on most electronic ranges: a power reset. Turn the range off at the circuit breaker (or unplug it), wait 1 to 5 minutes, restore power, then set the clock if it flashes.

Reset steps for model 79075403501 (power-cycle reset)

• Turn OFF the range circuit breaker (preferred) or unplug the power cord.
• Wait 1 to 5 minutes so the control fully discharges.
• Turn the breaker ON or plug the range back in.
• If the display shows 12:00, set the time (normal after power loss).
• Test Bake and Broil to confirm the control responds.

Important note about “electric” vs “gas”

Model 79075403501 is a gas range with an electronic control. The reset procedure above applies to the control panel and display; it does not change gas ignition performance.

If the oven still will not heat after a reset

A reset fixes control glitches; it does not fix failed ignition or temperature-sensing parts. Use this quick checklist:

• Confirm the breaker is fully on (not half-tripped).
• Make sure the oven is not in a delayed start or lockout mode.
• If Bake does not ignite, check the igniter glow and ignition timing.
• If temperatures are inaccurate, check the sensor circuit.

Symptom after reset	Most likely area to check	Example part for this model
Display works, Bake will not light	Oven ignition	Range bake igniter 5303935066
Oven heats but temps are off	Temperature sensing	Frigidaire range oven temperature sensor 316217002
Control is dead or erratic	Electronic control	Range oven control board and clock 316418547

Why it matters

Resetting power is the fastest way to clear a stuck keypad, flashing clock, or minor control glitch. If the problem returns immediately, the symptom points to an ignition, sensor, or control-board issue instead of a one-time power interruption.

If your range’s model tag shows 790.7540 (with a color code after it), you have a Kenmore Elite gas range model 79075403501. We find the exact model by checking the serial plate location on the oven frame and matching the full model number.

Where to find the model number tag

Use the serial plate location shown in the 79075403501 owner’s manual. On most Kenmore ranges like this, the tag is easiest to see when you:

• Open the oven door fully
• Look along the oven door frame (often on the left or right side)
• Check the lower front frame area near the door opening
• Write down the full Model and Serial numbers exactly as printed

How to read what you find

Kenmore model numbers often include punctuation on the label (for example, 790.7540 plus additional digits). For this Kenmore Elite gas range family:

• 790 typically identifies the manufacturer series used for many Kenmore ranges
• 7540 identifies the model family/features
• The remaining digits identify the exact version (finish, configuration, production changes)

Quick examples

If you confirm your oven is not heating and the model matches 79075403501, a common repair part is the range bake igniter 5303935066 (the oven burner igniter).
