79077471790 Kenmore Range - Instructions

The bulb has a plastic clear cover. That cover can just be carefully removed using a screwdriver. It's held in by a metal bracket. After you remove the cover. You'll just need to replace the bulb and then re-install the cover and bracket.

I used good old commom sense to disassemble and reassemble the frame, handle, internal glass,and inter panel to reach and repace the cracked glass. I must admit I had two machine screws left over during reassembly, but found a home. It is important to identify where each and every screw belongs. This will cut down your repair time. I thank PartSelect for providing great service and assisting me in my time of need.

Relatively easy to install once you get to the item.

Removed the front panel, top panel, original clock timer.
(15+ screws)
The leads were stuck and had to be pried out with a knife. As I removed one lead I inserted it into the same on the new panel.((eight leads various colors.)
One connector to remove and insert into new panel.
Done!!!! It worked!!! EXCEPT;
After putting it all together I discovered that the push buttons were not included with the unit. I had to pry out the old ones and reuse them on the new timer.

If it hadn't been for the push buttons the whole job would have taken about an hour.

Oh, just a reminder, turn off the eletricity. I forgot to and lit up a bit.

Was easy...I pulled oven out from the wall so I could get to the back.i used a nut driver to remove small silver cover.matched up wires to the never module and re installed.pluged oven back in and burners lit perfectly

Got a copy of the parts breakdown for the oven door from partselect. Com. Removed 8 screws from outer frame (3 top, 3 bottom, 1 on eah side). Removed the main glass pane from oven door, be careful when doing this as this is most of the weight of the door. It will want close on its own due to lack of weight. Removed the 2 top screws that attach the handle. Removed some screws from some plates that retain the 2 panes of glass of glass. Removed the third (most inner, broken) pane of glass. Replaced with new one. Reversed disassebly procedure for assembly.

First I removed the oven door from the range by removing 2 screws from the door. Next I removed 2 more screws from the oven door to get to the panel beneath. Once the top portion of the door was removed there were 4 nuts holding the glass sections together. Once these nuts were out I removed the broken class, replaced it with the new glass and reassembled. It was a very easy and quick project. I was so happy to find the part. I thought I was going to have to buy a new range. Thanks.

Very easy just had to pull the wire up that holds it secure.

I had to remove the whole back of the stove in order to gain access to the timer which is housed on the top console of the stove. There was 8 different leads and a wiring harness to keep track of. I had a friend help and after a good two hours we finally got it. I was never able to remove the top console so had to resort to a bit of prying to gain access to all of the screws. The manufacture did not make this an easy project. The part was rather expensive but with some thought and patients I now have a clock timer with a bright LED display with only one screw left over.

I followed Ryan's instructions and had no problem following them. HOWEVER, I ENCOUNTERED A MAJOR PROBLEM when I put it all back together: the control buttons wouldn't work. I took it apart again and examined the old one, which had plastic pins in the holes which the buttons were supposed to push. The new part didn't have the pins. I wanted to remove the pins from the old part and put them in the new one. This was difficult, and I broke the first one when I removed it. (I ended up super-gluing it together successfully.) In order to remove the other pins, I pried and pinched with needle-nose pliers to remove the plastic collar around the pin, then the pin came out easily and could be inserted in the new part, pushing hard until it clicked in place. Then when I put everything together it worked fine.

Replaced the ingintion module, still did not work, replaced the burner complete with new ingiter , it now works but another one quit . the front right one has 5 ohms resistance ,replaced with new one with 0 ohms, the back left has 2 ohms resistance and now it does not work , will need to replace that burner allso. too bad you can't buy just the spark module for the burner.

older range required no tools to repair, pulled old gasket out of notches at bottom of door, popped clips out of pre-drilled holes, folded new gasket ends {2 inches} and pushed into door, pushed clips into place.

I removed the screws holding the element in place. Then I screwed in the new part. No problem at all.

Lifted the drawer out from the oven and removed top and bottom screws. Replaced the handle and tightened the screws.

I bought and paid for 4 drip pans for my Tappan stove. I received 4 metal ones. With your authorization I returned them,
paying $18.00 postage. Since it was your mistake a believe you should reimburse me for that expense.
