Kenmore Pro 79079613801 gas range Parts

On the Kenmore Pro gas range model 79079613801, the serial number is printed on the serial plate (rating plate). You can typically see it when you open the oven door; it is on the lower trim area, and some versions also list it on a plate at the back of the range. See the 79079613801 owner's manual for the exact serial plate location illustration.

• Open the oven door and look along the lower front frame/trim (near the door opening)
• Check the back of the range for a serial plate (especially if the front label is missing)
• Use a flashlight and read the full line of text, not just the large model number
• Write down model number, serial number, and any lot letter/number shown
• Take a clear photo before the label gets worn or greasy

The serial plate usually includes more than the serial number. Recording everything helps us match the correct Kenmore parts and any model-specific variations.

Kenmore ranges often have multiple configurations under similar model families. Using the serial plate information helps ensure you get the right oven igniter, temperature sensor, control board, or other replacement parts the first time.

On the Kenmore Pro gas range model 79079613801, the model and serial number are printed on the serial plate. You can typically see it when you open the oven door and look along the lower trim area; some units also have a serial plate at the back of the range. See the 79079613801 owner's manual for the exact serial plate locations.

• Open the oven door and look along the lower trim (front frame area)
• Check the door jamb area around the oven opening
• Look at the back of the unit (rear panel area)
• If your range has a storage/warming drawer, check the frame behind it
• Write down both the model and serial numbers before ordering parts

The serial plate usually lists:

• Model number (for example, 790.79613 family)
• Serial number
• Sometimes gas type and electrical ratings

Kenmore ranges often have multiple versions that look similar. Using the exact model number from the serial plate helps us match the right parts (like an oven igniter, temperature sensor, or control board) and avoid returns.

The average lifespan of the Kenmore Pro gas range model 79079613801 is 15 years with normal household use and basic maintenance. Keeping burners clean, ensuring proper gas ignition, and addressing heating issues early helps this range reach its full service life.

• Heat and grease exposure on controls and wiring
• Ignition wear (surface and oven igniters cycling frequently)
• Oven temperature accuracy (sensor drift can cause overworking)
• Ventilation and cooling (overheating shortens control life)
• Cleaning habits (spills left to bake on can damage finishes and seals)

Use the safety and care guidance in the 79079613801 owner's manual as your baseline.

• Keep burner caps seated and ports clear after boilovers
• Wipe up oven spills promptly to protect the oven liner and door seal
• Avoid slamming the oven door; it stresses hinges and glass supports
• If you smell gas, follow the safety steps in the manual immediately
• Run the cooling fan unobstructed; do not block rear vents

Many “old range” problems are repairable with the right part.

A 15-year lifespan is typical for a gas range, but performance drops fast when ignition or temperature control is off. Fixing those issues early reduces stress on the gas valve, control boards, and wiring harness, which helps the range last longer.
