Kenmore 79094173314 electric freestanding range Parts

Your Kenmore stove’s model number is on the appliance ID label; on Kenmore ranges it’s commonly found around the oven door frame, inside the storage drawer opening, or on the back panel. For this page, the model number format looks like 79094173314.

Where to look on a Kenmore freestanding range

Check these common label locations (use a flashlight and look for “Model”, “Model No.”, “MOD”, or “MO”):

• Oven door frame or the front frame behind the door (most common)
• Inside the bottom storage drawer opening (remove the drawer to see the frame)
• Back of the range near the power cord/terminal block cover
• Under the cooktop (only if your cooktop lifts; some do not)
• Side panel edge near the front leveling legs

How to read the number once you find it

Kenmore model numbers are usually a long string of numbers. Many Kenmore ranges start with a 3-digit prefix that identifies the manufacturer; for example, 790 is commonly seen on Kenmore ranges.

What you see on the label	What it means	What to do with it
Model number (example: 79094173314)	Exact appliance identity	Use it to match parts and diagrams
Serial number	Production identifier	Helpful for service history
Electrical rating (V/Hz/A)	Power requirements	Useful for installation and troubleshooting

Why it matters for parts and troubleshooting

Using the exact model number prevents ordering the wrong bake element, surface element control switch, or oven temperature sensor. Even small model variations can change wiring, terminal block style, and control board compatibility.

Tip: confirm you are on the right model page

If your label matches 79094173314, you can use the 79094173314 owner's manual to confirm features and the 79094173314 installation guide to verify electrical connection and anti-tip bracket requirements.

The oven capacity (cubic feet) for the Kenmore 79094173314 electric freestanding range is found in the specifications section of the 79094173314 owner’s manual. If you do not have that spec handy, you can calculate the usable oven volume from interior measurements for an accurate cubic-foot result.

How to calculate oven cubic feet (most accurate)

Measure the usable cavity, then convert cubic inches to cubic feet.

• Measure interior width (left wall to right wall)
• Measure interior height (oven floor to the lowest obstruction near the top)
• Measure interior depth (back wall to the inside of the door gasket)
• Multiply: W x H x D (in inches) to get cubic inches
• Divide by 1,728 to convert to cubic feet

Quick conversion table

Step	What you do	Result
1	Multiply W x H x D (inches)	cubic inches
2	Divide by 1,728	cubic feet
3	Round to 1 decimal	practical capacity

Typical capacity range (for context)

Most 30-inch Kenmore freestanding electric ranges are about 4.8 to 5.4 cu. ft. total oven capacity. Your measured result (or the spec in the manual) is the number to use for fitting large cookware.

Why it matters

Oven capacity affects whether large items fit (roasters, pizza stones, full-size baking sheets) and helps you choose correctly sized accessories such as an oven rack.

Kenmore model numbers are read left to right; the first three digits identify the manufacturer source, and the remaining digits narrow down the exact series and feature set. For your Kenmore electric freestanding range model 79094173314, the 790 prefix is the key identifier we use to match the correct parts and documentation like the 79094173314 owner’s manual.

What each section of a Kenmore model number tells us

Most Kenmore model numbers follow a simple pattern:

• Prefix (first 3 digits): manufacturer source code (most important for parts matching)
• Middle digits: product platform or base design
• Last digits: feature, color, or production variation
• Full model number: must be used exactly as printed to avoid ordering the wrong part

Where to find the model number on a freestanding range

On Kenmore freestanding electric ranges, the model/serial tag is commonly found in one of these spots:

• On the oven frame behind the storage drawer
• Along the door jamb area when you open the oven door
• On the rear panel of the range
• Occasionally inside the lower drawer cavity

Example: how we interpret your model

Here is a practical breakdown using your model:

Example model	Prefix	What we use it for	Why it matters
79094173314	790	Identifies the manufacturer source	Ensures correct diagrams, wiring, and compatible parts

Why it matters for parts and troubleshooting

Using the full model number helps us match the exact configuration of your range, which affects fit and function for items like surface element switches, oven sensors, and control overlays.

If you are diagnosing a heating issue, the model number also helps narrow the right components to test, such as the frigidaire range oven temperature sensor 316490000 or a surface element control switch.

If your Kenmore electric range model 79094173314 has surface burners that work but the oven will not heat, the most common causes are a failed bake or broil heating circuit, a bad oven temperature sensor, or a power supply/terminal block connection problem. Start with safe power checks, then test the heating and sensor components.

Quick checks first (power and settings)

• Confirm the range is fully plugged in and the breaker is not tripped (ranges need full 240V for baking and broiling).
• Make sure the oven is not in a timed-delay mode and the clock is set.
• If the display is dead or the oven is completely unresponsive, focus on the power connection area.
• If the oven heats weakly or unevenly, focus on the bake element and temperature sensing.
• If the oven will not start after self-clean, check the door lock system.

What to test on this model

For model 79094173314, these parts are commonly involved in “oven not working” symptoms:

Symptom	Most likely cause	What to do next
Oven will not heat at all	No/partial 240V supply, loose/burned terminal connection	Inspect wiring and terminal block connections (power off)
Oven heats but temperature is wrong	Temperature sensor out of range	Test/replace the frigidaire range oven temperature sensor 316490000
Broil works but bake does not	Failed bake element	Inspect element for damage; test for continuity
Oven stuck after self-clean	Door lock motor/switch issue	Check the range oven door lock motor and switch assembly 5304528973

Terminal block and wiring: a common “no heat” cause

A loose or overheated terminal block connection can leave you with lights and burners but no proper oven heat. The installation instructions also warn not to loosen the factory-installed nuts that secure range wiring at the terminal block because it can cause electrical failure.

• Turn off the breaker before removing the rear access cover.
• Look for discoloration, melted insulation, or loose lugs at the terminal block.
• If damaged, replace the universal/multiflex (frigidaire) range terminal block 5303935271.

Why it matters

An electric oven needs a solid 240V supply and healthy heating and sensing components. A weak power connection or failed sensor can stop heating entirely or cause unsafe, inaccurate temperatures.

For wiring and grounding details specific to this range, follow the 79094173314 installation guide.
