Kenmore 79094203310 electric range Parts

To reset your Kenmore electric range model 79094203310, we recommend doing a power reset (breaker off, then back on) for a quick control reboot; if you need a true control reset, restore the oven control to factory defaults using the keypad steps in the 79094203310 owner's manual.

Quick reset (power reset)

Use this when the display is frozen, the oven will not start, or the range acted up after a power flicker.

• Turn OFF the range circuit breaker (or unplug the power cord if accessible).
• Wait 60 seconds.
• Turn the breaker ON (or plug back in).
• Reset the clock, then test Bake and a surface element.
• If the range was on during a power failure, make sure all knobs are OFF before power returns.

Factory reset (restore default control settings)

Use this when settings like tones, 12/24-hour clock, or temperature offset need to go back to normal.

• Press and hold 7 on the numeric keypad until the acceptance tone sounds (about 6 seconds).
• Press START to complete the reset.

What gets reset

Setting type	What it affects	Result after factory reset
Clock and display options	12/24-hour mode, °F/°C	Returns to default
Control sounds	Silent vs audible	Returns to default
Oven calibration	Temperature offset (UPO)	Resets to 0

If the oven is “locked” and won’t respond

If you see DOOR with a lock icon, cancel the lockout first.

• Press and hold Oven Lock for 3 seconds (some versions use Up + Down arrows together).
• Wait about 15 seconds for the latch motor to fully unlock.
• Do not force the door while the lock icon is showing.

Why it matters

A power reset clears minor electronic glitches, while a factory reset restores user-adjustable control settings (including oven temperature offset) that can make baking seem “off” even when parts like the bake element are fine.

The Kenmore 79094203310 electric range uses the same Use & Care Guide family as models 790.9420/9424/9624, but the oven’s exact cubic-foot capacity is not listed in the excerpt we have. Most Kenmore 790 electric ranges of this style are typically about 4.8 to 5.4 cu. ft.; you can confirm yours by measuring the oven interior and converting to cubic feet using the steps below (see the 79094203310 owner's manual).

How to measure your oven capacity (most accurate)

Measure the usable interior of the oven cavity (not the door opening).

• Remove racks for easier measuring.
• Measure width (left wall to right wall) in inches.
• Measure height (floor to ceiling) in inches.
• Measure depth (back wall to inside of closed door) in inches.
• Multiply: width x height x depth to get cubic inches.
• Divide by 1,728 to convert cubic inches to cubic feet.

Quick conversion table

What you have	What it means
Cubic inches	W x H x D
Cubic feet	(W x H x D) ÷ 1,728

Why your measurement can differ from “listed capacity”

Manufacturers sometimes publish capacity based on a standardized “usable volume,” which can differ slightly from a tape-measure calculation because of:

• Rounded corners and interior contours
• Convection fan cover space (if equipped)
• Rack supports and sensor protrusions
• How “depth” is defined (door liner vs. gasket line)

Helpful tip while you are checking specs

If you are comparing pans or troubleshooting uneven baking, the control and feature details for this model family are outlined in the 79094203310 owner's manual. For temperature accuracy issues, a failing sensor is a common cause on electric ranges; the frigidaire range oven temperature sensor 316490000 is the model-matched part shown for this range.

Kenmore model numbers are structured so the first 3 digits identify the manufacturer, and the remaining digits narrow down the exact product and feature set. For Kenmore electric range model 79094203310, the 790 prefix is the key identifier you use when matching parts and manuals.

What each section of a Kenmore model number means

Most Kenmore model numbers break down like this:

• Prefix (first 3 digits): manufacturer code (example: 790)
• Middle digits: base design or series (helps group similar ranges)
• Ending digits: specific variation (finish, control style, options, revision)

To confirm you are reading the correct tag on your range, check the rating plate location shown in the 79094203310 owner’s manual.

Where to find the model number on this range

On Kenmore electric ranges like 79094203310, the model and serial information is on the serial plate.

• Open the warmer drawer
• Look on the left side of the warmer drawer frame
• Record the model number and serial number exactly as printed
• Use the full model number when ordering parts (not just the 790 prefix)

Quick examples (how to use the number when shopping for parts)

What you have	What it helps with	What to do
790 (prefix)	Identifies the manufacturer family	Use it to find the right error-code family and manuals
79094203310 (full model)	Identifies your exact range	Use it to match parts lists and diagrams
Serial number	Production run details	Keep it for service and warranty records

Why it matters

Using the full model number prevents ordering the wrong bake element, control board, or oven sensor. Even small digit changes can mean different wiring, different control overlays, or different surface element switches.

On the Kenmore 79094203310 electric range, an oven that “stops working” is usually caused by a power supply problem (tripped breaker or loose cord connection), a control setting that prevents heating (such as Sabbath mode after an interruption), or a failed heating or sensing component like the bake element or oven temperature sensor. See the 79094203310 owner's manual for model-specific control behavior.

Quick checks we recommend first

• Confirm the range has power; reset the double breaker fully OFF then ON.
• If the display shows SF or SAb, turn off Sabbath mode (press and hold Cook Time and Delay Start together for at least 3 seconds).
• Make sure the oven is actually set to Bake or Broil, then press Start.
• If the cooktop works but the oven will not heat, suspect an oven-only component.
• If the oven heats unevenly or shuts off early, suspect a sensor or control issue.

Most common part-related causes (electric range)

Symptom	Likely cause	Part to check on this model
Oven will not heat in Bake	Open/failed bake element	Frigidaire range bake element 316505500
Oven temperature is erratic	Failed temperature sensor	Frigidaire range oven temperature sensor 316490000
Broil does not work	Failed broil element	Range broil element (inspect for damage)
Oven dead or unresponsive	Control board problem	Range oven control board and clock

Why a power interruption can look like a “dead” oven

This model can enter a Sabbath failure state after a power failure; the display can show SF, and the oven will not restart automatically until Sabbath mode is turned off.

Safety and “stop now” signs

• If you smell burning insulation, see arcing, or the cord/terminal area looks overheated, shut off the breaker and inspect the power connection.
• Do not line the oven bottom or racks with foil; it can trap heat and damage the oven.
• After self-clean, do not force the door open; the lock system can be damaged.

On Kenmore electric range model 79094203310, the model and serial number are printed on the serial plate; on this model, the plate is on the left side of the warmer drawer frame and is visible when you open the warmer drawer (see the 79094203310 owner's manual).

Where to check first (fastest to slowest)

Start with the locations that are most common for this Kenmore 790-series range:

• Open the warmer drawer and look on the left side of the drawer frame (serial plate)
• Check the front frame behind the oven door (door jamb area)
• Look on the back panel near the power cord/terminal block cover
• If your range has a storage drawer instead of a warmer drawer, check the frame around that drawer opening

What the label looks like

The serial plate is a small rating label that includes the model and serial information.

What you need	How it’s labeled	Why we ask for it
Model number	“Model” or “Model No.”	Matches the correct parts diagrams and replacement parts
Serial number	“Serial” or “Serial No.”	Helps identify production details for service and support

Quick tips to copy it correctly

• Write the model number exactly as shown, including any dots or extra digits
• Take a phone photo and zoom in to avoid transposing numbers
• If it’s greasy or dusty, wipe gently with a damp cloth and mild dish soap, then dry

Why it matters

Using the exact 79094203310 model number prevents ordering the wrong Kenmore parts and speeds up troubleshooting for issues like heating problems, surface element control concerns, or error-code checks.
