Kenmore 79096213403 electric range Parts

On the Kenmore electric range model 79096213403, the model and serial number are printed on an identification plate located on the right side of the oven front frame, inside the storage drawer or warmer drawer compartment. Use the location diagram in the 79096213403 owner's manual to spot it quickly.

1. Make sure the range is cool.
2. Pull the storage drawer (or warmer drawer, if equipped) fully open.
3. Look at the right side of the oven front frame (the vertical frame area just behind the drawer opening).
4. Find the identification plate and record:
   • Model number (example: 790.9621 series)
   • Serial number

• Behind the oven door: common on some ranges, but this model family typically uses the drawer compartment plate.
• Back panel near the cord cover: sometimes used on other designs.
• Side panels: less common for this Kenmore 790 series.

• Use a flashlight; the plate can be in shadow.
• Copy every digit (including leading zeros if present).
• Take a photo so you can zoom in later.
• Record both model and serial; parts lookups often need both.

The exact model number (like 79096213403) ensures we match the correct parts and diagrams for your electric range, especially for items that vary by revision such as a bake element, control overlay, or surface element components.

To reset a Kenmore electric range model 79096213403, we recommend doing a full power reset: turn the range off, switch the circuit breaker off (or remove the fuse) for 1 to 5 minutes, then restore power and reset the clock and any oven settings per the 79096213403 owner's manual.

• Turn all surface elements and the oven off.
• At your home electrical panel, switch the range breaker OFF (or remove the range fuse).
• Wait 1 to 5 minutes to clear the control.
• Switch the breaker ON (or reinstall the fuse).
• Set the clock and reselect your bake or broil function.

The manual warns not to operate the range during a power failure. If power returns and the range was not turned off, it can begin operating again. After power is restored, turn the appliance off, then reset the clock and oven function using the 79096213403 owner's manual.

A reset helps with temporary control glitches, but it will not correct a failed heating circuit, sensor issue, or a damaged control.

Common next checks:

• Confirm the range is getting the correct supply power at the outlet or junction box.
• If the oven will not heat, inspect the bake and broil elements for visible damage.
• If a surface element will not heat, suspect the element, infinite switch, or control.
• If an error code is showing, use the Kenmore 790 range 4-digit error codes guide to identify the failure.

A proper reset clears the electronic control safely and helps you confirm whether you have a temporary control issue or a part failure that needs troubleshooting.

Knowing the Frigidaire-built prefix helps match the correct style of components used on this electric range, such as heating elements, surface element controls, and oven temperature sensing parts.

Kenmore is a brand name used across multiple manufacturers. The prefix (like 790) is the fastest way to identify who built the unit, which improves accuracy when selecting parts and following model-family troubleshooting steps.
