How do I reset my Kenmore electric range?
To reset your Kenmore electric range model 9119342191, we recommend doing a full power reset: turn the range off, cut power at the breaker for a few minutes, then restore power and set the clock. This clears many control glitches and display issues.
Quick reset steps (most common)
- Turn all surface burner knobs to OFF.
- If the oven is running, press Cancel/Off (if your control has it).
- Switch the range circuit breaker OFF (or unplug the cord if accessible).
- Wait 3 to 5 minutes.
- Restore power; set the clock and re-test Bake and Broil.
If the reset does not fix it
A reset helps when the electronic control is “stuck”, but it will not fix a failed heating circuit or a damaged power connection.
- If the oven will not heat after reset, inspect and test the bake element WB44K5012 and broil element for visible damage (blisters, cracks, burn spots).
- If the display is dead or the range is intermittently losing power, check the house breaker and inspect the terminal block 330031 area for loose or overheated connections.
- If a surface burner is the only problem, the issue is often the surface unit or its control.
What you should see after a successful reset
| What you notice | What it usually means | What to do next |
|---|---|---|
| Display comes back, functions respond | Control recovered from a glitch | Set clock; test Bake/Broil |
| Display is blank | No power to range or internal power issue | Check breaker; inspect terminal block wiring |
| Oven heats but temperature seems off | Calibration or sensor issue | Re-test with an oven thermometer; consider service |
Why it matters
A proper reset is the fastest safe first step for error-like behavior (frozen keypad, odd beeping, incorrect display). It also helps you separate a temporary control issue from a parts problem such as a failed element or a loose power connection.

How to read Kenmore model numbers?
Kenmore model numbers (including your range model 9119342191) use a prefix-and-series format: the first 3 digits identify the original manufacturer, and the remaining digits narrow down the product series and feature variations so we can match the correct parts.
How Kenmore model numbers are structured
Most Kenmore appliance model numbers follow this pattern:
- First 3 digits: manufacturer prefix (who built it for Kenmore)
- Next digits: model series (platform or design family)
- Last digits/letters: feature, color, or revision differences
For 9119342191, the 911 prefix is the key that helps us route you to the right parts diagrams for this Kenmore electric range.
Why the exact model number matters for parts
Even small model-number differences can change the fit of electrical and oven components. When you use the full model number, we can match parts like:
- Surface heating elements (8-inch and 6-inch units)
- Oven heating elements (bake and broil)
- Oven door parts (hinges, glass, gasket)
- Electrical connection parts (terminal block, wire harness)
Quick examples (what changes when the model changes)
| What you’re replacing | What the model number helps confirm | Example part for this model |
|---|---|---|
| Oven light cover | Lens shape and mounting | Light lens WB25T10042 |
| Bake heat problem | Correct bake element style | Bake element WB44K5012 |
| Power connection issue | Terminal block match | Terminal block 330031 |
How to find the model number on the range
On most Kenmore 30-inch freestanding electric ranges, the model number is typically found:
- On the oven frame behind the storage drawer
- On the lower oven frame area when you open the oven door
- On a rating label near the drawer opening
For a step-by-step walkthrough, use our guide: how to find your appliance model number (and what it means for parts).
Why it matters
Using the full Kenmore model number prevents ordering a part that looks similar but has different terminals, mounting points, or wattage, which can cause poor heating performance or an unsafe electrical connection.

What is the code F93 on a Kenmore oven?
On the Kenmore 9119342191 electric range, error code F93 points to a problem in the oven door lock system (the latch, lock motor, or the switches that confirm locked and unlocked positions). This often shows up during self-clean or when the control thinks the door is not locking correctly.
What to do first (safe reset and quick checks)
- Turn the range off and shut off power at the breaker for 1 minute.
- Restore power and see if the code clears.
- If the code appears during self-clean, let the oven cool completely before trying to open the door.
- Check that the oven door closes fully and is not being held open by a warped gasket or debris.
- If the door is stuck locked, do not force it; forcing can bend hinges and damage the latch.
Common causes of F93 on this model type
F93 is usually triggered when the control does not see the expected lock feedback within a set time.
- Door lock motor not moving the latch
- Lock switches out of position or not closing electrically
- Loose, overheated, or damaged wiring at the lock circuit
- Control not sending power to the lock motor
Quick symptom-to-cause guide
| What you notice | Most likely area to check | Typical next step |
|---|---|---|
| Code appears right when self-clean starts | Lock motor or latch binding | Inspect latch movement; check wiring |
| Door stays locked after canceling clean | Lock switch feedback or motor stalled | Power reset; test lock circuit |
| Intermittent F93 | Loose connection | Inspect harness and terminals |
Parts that are often involved
If you find heat damage, loose terminals, or brittle wiring, address the connection before replacing major components.
Why it matters
The door lock is a safety system; if the range cannot confirm the door is locked or unlocked, the control may disable self-clean and sometimes baking functions to prevent unsafe operation.
