Kenmore 79074419810 gas range Parts

On Kenmore gas range model 79074419810, the model and serial number are on the identification plate located on the right-hand surface of the oven front frame. You access it by opening the storage drawer, warmer drawer, or broiler drawer (depending on your configuration). See the 79074419810 installation guide.

Quick steps to locate the ID plate

• Turn the range light on so you can see the frame clearly.
• Pull the storage drawer (or broiler drawer) fully open.
• Look at the right-hand front frame of the oven opening.
• Find the identification plate with the model and serial information.
• Write down the model number, serial number, and lot number/letter.

What information is on that plate (and why it matters)

The identification plate typically lists details you need for parts and service.

Plate detail	What we use it for
Model number	Matching the correct Kenmore gas range parts for your unit
Serial number	Verifying production run and compatible replacements
Lot number/letter	Narrowing down version changes within the same model
Fuel type and pressure	Confirming the range is set up for the correct gas supply

Tips for ordering the right parts

• Match the model number exactly: 79074419810.
• Use the full model and serial when troubleshooting bake or ignition issues.
• If you are replacing an oven ignition part, confirm whether you need an igniter such as the frigidaire range oven burner igniter 5304509706.

Why it matters

Kenmore ranges can look similar across model series, but burner ratings, fuel setup, and control parts can vary. Using the identification plate info prevents ordering the wrong igniter, sensor, or control component.

To change a spark electrode igniter on your Kenmore gas range model 79074419810, we remove power and gas, lift the burner parts, swap the electrode at that burner location, then reassemble and test ignition. Use the 79074419810 installation guide for burner-cap placement and ignition checks.

Safety first (do this every time)

• Turn the range control knobs to OFF.
• Shut off the gas supply at the shutoff valve.
• Unplug the range (or switch off the breaker) to stop the igniters from sparking.
• Let the cooktop cool completely.
• If you smell gas at any point, stop and ventilate the area before continuing.

Steps to replace a surface spark electrode

1. Remove the burner grate.
2. Lift off the burner cap and burner head; keep parts grouped by burner so they go back in the same spot.
3. Access the electrode at that burner location (each burner has its own electrode).
4. Disconnect the electrode wire connector.
5. Remove the mounting screw, then pull out the old electrode.
6. Install the new electrode, secure it with the screw, and reconnect the wire.
7. Reinstall the burner head and cap, making sure the cap sits correctly.
8. Restore power and gas, then test ignition.

What “normal” ignition looks like

After reassembly, we check ignition the same way the installer does:

• Turn the knob to LITE; you should hear sparking.
• The burner should light within about 4 seconds after air is purged from the gas line.
• Once lit, turn the knob out of LITE so the igniter stops sparking.

Quick troubleshooting after replacement

Symptom	Most likely cause	What to check
Clicking but no flame	Gas not reaching burner	Gas valve open, burner head seated, ports clear
Weak/uneven flame	Misaligned cap/head	Re-seat cap and head per guide
No clicking at any burner	Power or ignition circuit issue	Breaker, outlet, wiring, spark module

If multiple burners will not spark, the issue is often the range spark module 808608802 rather than a single electrode.

Why it matters

A properly mounted electrode and correctly seated burner cap help the burner ignite quickly, prevent delayed ignition, and keep flame stable at low settings.

How to confirm the manufacturer from the model tag

We recommend checking the full model and serial information on the appliance identification tag, then matching it to the documentation.

• Verify the model reads 79074419810 (not a similar 790.7442* variant)
• Record the full serial number (helps when ordering parts like an igniter or control board)
• Compare the model format to what’s listed in the 79074419810 use and care guide
• Use the manufacturer association when selecting compatible parts (burner igniter, sensor, spark module)

What the “790” prefix usually means

Many Kenmore appliances use a 3-digit prefix that points to the original manufacturer. For Kenmore cooking products, 790 is widely recognized as a Frigidaire/Electrolux manufacturing prefix.

What you see	What it typically indicates	Why you care
Kenmore model starts with 790	Frigidaire/Electrolux-built platform	Parts and wiring layouts often match Frigidaire designs
Manual lists 790.7442* series	Same product family as your model	Helps confirm correct procedures and features

Why it matters when buying parts

Knowing the build platform helps you choose the right replacement parts and troubleshooting steps for your Kenmore gas range.

Common examples for this model family include:

• Frigidaire range oven burner igniter 5304509706 for weak or no oven ignition
