Parts for Kenmore 790.74032312 (79074032312, 790 74032312): Burner Parts

The Gas Valve is an OEM part for Frigidaire gas ranges. It controls the flow of gas to the surface burners, enabling precise temperature adjustments and safe operation. This valve operates by opening and closing to allow gas to pass through when the burner is turned on and shutting off the flow when it is turned off.

Causes of a bad gas valve can include mechanical wear, debris buildup that obstructs the valve, or failure of the electrical components that control the valve's operation. 

Symptoms of a bad Gas Valve include:

• Gas burner failing to light despite the ignition sparking
• Uneven flame or a flame that goes out unexpectedly
• A noticeable gas smell when the appliance is in use, indicating a potential leak
• Inability to adjust the flame height or heat level on the burners

This OEM Frigidaire part is also compatible with Electrolux, Gibson, Kelvinator and some Kenmore models.

The Surface Burner Valve is an OEM replacement part for Frigidaire ranges. It controls the flow of gas to one of the surface cooking burners, allowing for temperature control on that burner.

Causes of a bad surface burner valve can include wear and tear from extensive use over time, damage to the valve components due to impact or mishandling, or issues with the gas control mechanism failing to function properly. 

Symptoms of a bad surface burner valve include:

• Inability to adjust flame height or turn burner on/off
• Burner only works at one setting or unpredictably adjusts itself  
• Leaking gas smell coming from the valve area
• Yellow burner flames instead of clean blue flames

This part is also compatible with Electrolux, Gibson, Kelvinator, and Kenmore ranges.

The Burner Valve is an OEM component specifically designed for Frigidaire ranges. It controls gas flow to individual burners, providing a selection of different heat levels when operating the cooktop.

Causes of a bad burner valve can include wear over extended usage periods, damage from water, or gas blockage impeding operation. 

Symptoms of a bad burner valve include:

• Inability to light specific burners or adjust the flame height
• Uneven or intermittent burner performance  
• Gas leaks at burner valve connections
• Recurring error codes due to valve malfunctions

Replacing with this OEM valve restores full functionality to the range cooktop. Compatible with existing gas lines, it supports safe and reliable cooking performance.

Symptoms of a malfunctioning Igniter Switch and Harness Assembly include:

• Difficulty in igniting the burner or complete failure to ignite
• Erratic behavior such as burners igniting without being switched on
• Sparks or short circuits observed near the control panel
• A burner that continues to click after ignition

This OEM Frigidaire part is also compatible with Electrolux, Gibson, Kelvinator and some Kenmore models.

The Spark Module is an OEM part for Frigidaire ranges and cooktops, designed to generate and control the ignition spark for the burners. This component ensures that each burner lights reliably and safely when the control knob is turned to the ignite position. By producing a high-voltage electrical spark, the spark module ignites the gas released by the burner, allowing for the cooking process to begin. It's a key part of the appliance's operation, ensuring both performance and safety.

The causes behind these issues can often be traced back to a malfunction within the spark module itself, which may result from normal wear and tear, moisture exposure, or electrical surges. A faulty spark module can lead to inefficient burner operation, potentially causing gas leaks or preventing the appliance from being used for cooking.

Symptoms of a failing Spark Module include:

• Burners not igniting when the control knob is turned
• Intermittent ignition or failure to maintain a flame
• Continuous sparking when the burner is on or off

This OEM Frigidaire part is also compatible with Electrolux, Gibson, Kelvinator and some Kenmore models.
