Kenmore 79094383700 electric range Parts

Kenmore model numbers start with a 3-digit prefix that identifies who built the appliance, followed by digits that narrow down the exact design and feature set. For Kenmore range model 79094383700, the 790 prefix indicates a Frigidaire-built Kenmore range; the remaining digits identify the specific series and configuration.

Where to find the model and serial number on this range

For Kenmore 79094383700, the identification plate is located on the right side of the oven front frame inside the storage drawer or warmer drawer compartment. Use the location diagram and notes in the owner's manual.

• Pull out the storage or warmer drawer and look along the right front frame
• Write down the full model number and serial number exactly as shown
• Keep the numbers with your purchase date for parts matching and service records
• Use the full model number (not just the 790 prefix) when ordering parts

How to decode a Kenmore model number (quick guide)

Kenmore model numbers are easiest to read in three chunks.

• Prefix (first 3 digits): manufacturer code (who built it)
• Middle digits: product platform and feature package
• Last digits/characters: revision, color, or production variation (varies by product line)

Common Kenmore prefixes (examples)

Prefix	Common manufacturer	What it helps with
790	Frigidaire/Electrolux family	Matching oven and range parts correctly
110	Whirlpool family	Matching washer and dryer parts
363	GE family	Matching refrigerator parts

Why it matters for parts and troubleshooting

The prefix gets you in the right manufacturer family, but the full model number is what ensures the correct fit for parts like a bake element, surface element switch, or an oven temperature sensor. When you use the complete 79094383700 number, you avoid ordering a similar-looking part that mounts differently or uses a different wiring connector.

For Kenmore electric range model 79094383700, the model number is printed on the identification (serial) plate on the right side of the oven front frame, inside the storage drawer or warmer drawer compartment. Pull the drawer open and look along the right-side frame. See the owner's manual for the exact label location illustration.

Quick steps to find the model number

• Turn the oven off and let it cool.
• Pull the storage drawer or warmer drawer fully open.
• Look on the right side of the oven front frame (the frame the drawer slides into).
• Write down the full model number and serial number exactly as shown.
• Take a clear photo of the label; it helps when ordering parts.

Common label locations (what to check first)

For this Kenmore range family, the drawer-compartment serial plate is the primary location. If the label is hard to see, these checks help:

Location	What you will see	When it helps
Storage or warmer drawer compartment (right-side front frame)	Model and serial plate	Most common for 79094383700
Oven door frame area	Rating plate or secondary label	If the drawer label is worn
Back panel area	Electrical/rating label	If the range has been serviced and labels moved

If the label is missing or unreadable

• Wipe gently with a damp cloth; avoid abrasive cleaners on the label.
• Use a flashlight and take a phone photo from an angle to improve readability.
• Check for a second label nearby in the same drawer compartment.

Why it matters

The exact model number ensures we match the correct Kenmore electric range parts (for example, the correct bake element, oven temperature sensor, or control switch) and avoid fit or wiring differences between similar 790-series models.

To reset your Kenmore electric range model 79094383700, turn the range off by switching the circuit breaker OFF (or unplugging the power cord), wait 60 seconds, then restore power. After power returns, reset the clock because the display typically flashes 12:00 after an interruption (see the owner's manual).

Reset steps (safe, reliable method)

• Turn all surface element knobs to OFF.
• Switch the range circuit breaker OFF (or unplug the range).
• Wait 60 seconds.
• Restore power at the breaker (or plug the range back in).
• Set the clock; the oven may not operate correctly until time of day is set.
• Test Bake and Broil for a minute to confirm the controls respond.

What a reset fixes (and what it does not)

A power reset clears many temporary electronic control glitches, especially after a power outage. If the control keeps beeping or shows an F error code after the reset, clear it with CLEAR/OFF, then reprogram the oven settings.

Symptom after reset	What to do next	Common part involved
Display flashes 12:00	Set the clock	None
Oven will not start	Confirm time of day is set; verify power supply	Terminal block or wiring
Repeated F code beeping	Press CLEAR/OFF, reprogram; if it returns, troubleshoot the fault	Sensor or control circuit
Oven temperature seems wrong	Run a temperature check; inspect sensor connection	Frigidaire range oven temperature sensor 316490000

Why it matters

On model 79094383700, the control is designed to resume operation when power returns, so resetting and then setting the clock helps restore normal oven functions and prevents confusing control behavior after an outage.

The Kenmore 79094383700 is a freestanding electric range; the exact oven capacity and exterior dimensions depend on the specific 790.9437* variant (color and feature set). For the most accurate size specs for your unit, use the model and serial plate location and the dimension information in the owner's manual.

How to get the exact size for your specific 79094383700

We recommend matching specs to your exact unit because this model number covers multiple variants.

• Find the model and serial plate on the right side of the oven front frame, inside the storage or warmer drawer compartment
• Confirm the full model format (for example, 790.9437* where * is the color number)
• Use the dimensions and installation clearances listed for that exact variant
• If you are measuring for a cutout or move, measure the range in place (width, height to cooktop, depth to backguard)
• Include handle and door clearance in your depth measurement

Typical size range (helpful for planning)

Most 30-inch freestanding electric ranges like the Kenmore 790 series are built around these common exterior dimensions.

Measurement	Typical range	What to include
Width	~29 7/8 in to 30 in	Body, not countertop overhang
Height	~36 in (adjustable)	Leveling legs affect height
Depth	~25 in to 28+ in	Add handle and rear trim/backguard

Why it matters

Correct sizing prevents installation problems (clearances, anti-tip bracket alignment, and door swing). It also helps when ordering parts that relate to fit and access, such as the range oven door hinge 316530600 or range oven door seal 316405000.

A Kenmore electric range like model 79094383700 typically lasts 13 to 15 years with normal household use and basic maintenance (keeping the cooktop clean, avoiding overheating wiring connections, and addressing heating problems early). For care and cleaning guidance specific to your range, use the owner's manual.

Typical lifespan and what affects it

Most ranges reach the 13 to 15 year mark when the major systems stay reliable:

• Oven heating system (bake and broil performance)
• Surface elements and controls (radiant elements, switches)
• Electronic controls and indicator lights
• Door seal and hinges (heat retention and smooth closing)
• Wiring connections (terminal block and harness condition)

Signs your range is nearing end of life

If you see these issues repeatedly, repairs can add up quickly:

• Oven temperature swings, long preheat times, or uneven baking
• Surface element that cycles oddly or will not regulate heat
• Hot surface light or element-on light behaving incorrectly
• Door not sealing well, heat escaping, or the door not closing evenly
• Burning smell at the back of the range (often a wiring connection issue)

Common repairs that can extend life

Many “range is failing” symptoms come down to a few serviceable parts:

Symptom	Common cause	Example part on this model page
Oven not holding temp	Failed sensor	Frigidaire range oven temperature sensor 316490000
Oven will not bake	Open bake element	Frigidaire range bake element 316413800
Oven will not broil	Open broil element	Frigidaire range broil element 316203301
Cooktop heat won’t adjust	Bad infinite switch	Frigidaire range small surface element control switch 316436000

Why it matters

A range that is maintained and repaired early usually lasts longer and cooks more consistently. The manual also emphasizes regular cleaning to prevent grease buildup and reduce fire risk, especially under surface elements and around the cooktop.
