79095032500 Kenmore Range - Instructions

Take handle off, then back cover. Of course unplug power. Switch wasn't built exactly like the original but all you have to do is connect each wire to the same letter, number code as on the old one . Works like brand new!

Slid stove out, disconnect power plug, removed top control panel with 4 screws. Unplugged two electrical connectors. removed knob and nut removing switch. Re-assembled in reverse order and test all functions.

Pull range away from the wall. Unplug range. Remove back plate covering the switches. Remove defective switch. Use bent paper clip to press center of terminal connectors and disconnect terminals. Reconnect each terminal of new switch as you go to avoid confusing terminals and connectors. Re-attach switch. Plug in range and test elements. Clean range area. Push range back into place, being sure to engage the anti-tip safety device.

Removed 2 screws located underneath the front lip of the range top. Lifted range top and supported. Removed the 2 screws at either end of the support bracket. This bracket holds the elements in position. Be careful not to let the elements fall out when removing. The elements are now free to replace. Swap out the old with the new and be sure to reconnect the wires to the correct terminals on the new element. I did 1 wire at a time so as to not make a mistake at reconnecting the wires. Then replace the support bracket with the 2 screws and lower the range top in place and put back the 2 screws that hold the range top in position. VOILA!! Success. It works. The wife is now happy again:)

Switch was easy to replace. Some hex head screws to remove the panel and two screws to remove the switch. Though the plug in positions were totally different, all the quick connect terminals were marked on both switches.

removed back and transferred four wires to new part and replaced back

I removed the drawer, removed and replaced the guides on both sides in the front and replaced the drawer.

Just use flat screwdriver to press on clip and just squeeze it in

After researching on what exactly to call the part, which was a front drawer glide. I found this out by watching the video. It showed me exactly what I needed and what it looked like. I run to the oven to look at the other one, to make sure thats what I needed, and it looked like the part that I needed (mind you I am a female, and not a repair person), so this video helped me out alot. When the part arrived, I knew how to take the drawer out, and easily snapped the little plastic glide in to place, and slipped the drawer back on the gliders, and it worked perfect, so proud of myself, that I done it by myself, with no help from husband. I bragged and bragged on myself with a big pat on my own back, thanks Part Select, I know what to do when it happens again. Its my fault cause it broke, cause I overload the drawer with pots and pans LOL!!! Brenda Dixon

The drawer under the oven had been aggravating me for some time. It was titled and did not close right. Finally, I took it out to see what the problem was and noticed that the glides were broken. I googled the model no. of the stove (figuring I would have no luck) and to my great relief was directed to this EXCELLENT site. I ordered the new drawer glides within minutes and they were literally delivered the next day. Snapped right in, fixed, happy!! It's times like this when I can't figure out how we all lived without the internet!

Removed the drawer. Inserted the new glide tab into a hole in the side. Inserted the drawer slides in the the glide. Closed drawer--done! Works fine. Probably only 5-10 minutes.

replaced it

We have an older .......range that came with our house when we bought it in 2000...the stove works fine (for an electric stove!), but the drawer was always problematic. Sometimes it would sit straight in the appliance cabinet and sometimes it wouldn’t. Sometimes it would flop up and down, sometimes it worked and sometimes it didn’t!

We lived with it for TEN years...then a couple of weeks ago I needed a pizza pan. I opened the drawer and the darned thing wouldn’t go back into the stove properly. I played with it for awhile, trying to figure out why it didn’t work correctly! After some energetic observation (accompanied by some choice words about American engineering!) I realized the front drawer guide was broken off!! It was one of those “Aha!” moments!!

I retrieved the plastic piece and went to a local appliance store to get a replacement. They said they’d order one (for 8.95 and I pay shipping and handling!), and it would take 2 to 3 weeks to get it! I declined their offer. Surely, somwhere on the internet there was a supplier who had this part!!

I sat down with my MacBook Pro and looked up “range parts” and was immediately directed to partselect.com. I looked up the part (which was ONLY $3.38) and ordered two. I had the parts in my hand in four days, and even with shipping paid less than half what the other place wanted locally.

I pulled the drawer out, literally dropped in the new guide, and the drawer has worked flawlessly since!! We are forever grateful for PartSelect and will always keep their address on top of our web vendors list!!

Give them a chance...the least you could do is save some aggravation, and maybe a little bit of money, too!!

No problem..... I just had to slide the new one in..It took all of 5 minutes...
I searched so many different places for the part until a friend told me about Part Select!!!
Thank you so much...

First i removed the drawer. Then i removed the broken drawer glide and replaced it with the new one. Then i put the drawer back! The parts were a perfect match...
