Kenmore Cooktop 790.42494401 (79042494401, 790 42494401) Parts

The Large Chrome Drip Pan is an OEM replacement part for Frigidaire cooktops, designed to fit beneath the burner elements. It is responsible for providing a clean surface and maintain cleanliness. The drip pan catches spills and drips that occur during cooking, preventing them from reaching the interior of the stove where they can become burnt-on and difficult to clean. This large chrome drip pan measures approximately 8 inches in diameter.

Causes of a bad drip pan can include frequent exposure to high heat, spills, and regular cleaning, which can lead to discoloration, warping, or rust over time. When the drip pan becomes damaged or worn out, it may no longer effectively catch spills or reflect heat, affecting both cleanliness and cooking performance.

Symptoms of a bad part include:

• Visible signs of damage, wear, rust, or corrosion on the drip pan 
• Uneven stove element
• Difficulty cleaning spills and grease accumulating on the pan
• Unsightly appearance of the stove
• Difficulty cleaning the stove surface

This OEM Frigidaire part can also be used on Electrolux, Frigidaire, Gibson, Kelvinator, Westinghouse, and Sears/Kenmore.

This Small Drip Pan is an OEM replacement part for Frigidaire ranges. The Frigidaire Small Drip Pan boasts a durable construction, made of high-quality materials to ensure long-lasting performance. 

Over time, exposure to high heat, spills, and frequent cleaning can cause the drip pan to discolor, warp, or rust. A faulty drip pan can result in decreased efficiency and difficulty in maintaining a clean cooking area.

Symptoms of a bad Small Drip Pan include:

• Discoloration or rust
• Warping or misshaping
• Difficulty fitting properly beneath the burner
• Residual spills or drips reaching the burner area

This OEM Frigidaire part can also be used on Electrolux, Frigidaire, Gibson, Kelvinator, Westinghouse, and Sears/Kenmore.

The Indicator Light Lens is an OEM part for Frigidaire ranges and cooktops. It is designed to cover and protect the indicator light bulb, which signals when a burner is turned on or if the cooktop is still hot after use. This small component ensures that the light is visible and diffused properly, helping to prevent accidental burns or other safety issues.

Symptoms of a failing Indicator Light Lens include:

• Cracking or damage to the lens that impairs visibility
• Discoloration that makes it hard to tell if the light is on
• The lens becoming loose or falling off
• The light appearing overly bright or unfiltered

Causes of a bad indicator light lens typically involve high heat exposure, which can lead to cracking or warping, or accidental impacts during cleaning or use.

This OEM replacement is also compatible with Electrolux, Gibson, Kelvinator, and Kenmore models.

Replacement machine screw used to secure appliance panels and internal components, restoring a stable fit and reducing rattling. Matches a 10-32 thread with a 17/32-inch length for original fastener locations. What it does:

• Fastens panels, trim pieces, and internal brackets; a missing or damaged screw can cause loose panels or rattling noises.
• Secures knobs, control housings and small assemblies to prevent wobble or misalignment.
• Restores proper fit for components so doors and access panels sit evenly and function reliably.

• Disconnect power (unplug or shut off circuit) before accessing components.
• Use the correct driver and tighten by hand; avoid overtightening to prevent stripped threads or cracked plastic.
• Keep any original washers or clips and reinstall them with the screw.

This clip secures the appliance's terminal block to the chassis, keeping wiring stable and preventing strain on electrical connections. It's a small, durable mounting clip used where the terminal block needs a fast, reliable hold. What it does:

• Holds the terminal block firmly to the appliance frame to reduce wire movement and wear
• Helps maintain safe, stable electrical connections by preventing strain on terminal wires
• Prevents the terminal block from shifting during use or service
• Compatible with standard terminal block locations that use a push-in or snap-mount clip

• One terminal block mounting clip

• Always disconnect power before accessing or servicing electrical components
• Remove access panels and locate the terminal block; clip typically snaps into a chassis slot or aligns with an existing mounting boss
• Handle wiring and terminals gently to avoid loosening connections; verify all wires are secure after reinstall

This is a replacement mounting screw used to secure appliance panels, brackets, and components. Replacing worn or missing screws restores proper fit and reduces rattles or loose parts for safe, stable operation. What it does:

• Secures panels, brackets, trim, or small components in place
• Helps eliminate rattling, vibration, and loose or misaligned parts
• Restores proper fastening after maintenance or part replacement
• Matches the appliance's original fastener style for correct fit

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing to avoid shock or injury
• Use the correct driver bit to avoid stripping the head
• Do not overtighten; snug until secure to prevent thread or component damage

This bake element is the electric heating element that warms the oven cavity for baking and roasting, restoring proper oven heat for reliable cooking results. Designed as a direct replacement to return consistent bake performance. What it does

• Heats the oven cavity during bake cycles to reach and maintain cooking temperatures.
• Restores even baking when the oven fails to reach temperature or cooks food unevenly.
• Replaces elements that are visibly burnt, broken, or show continuity failure.
• Works with the oven's control and thermostat to regulate bake temperatures.

• Disconnect power to the range at the circuit breaker before beginning any repair.
• Allow the oven to cool completely and wear gloves; element edges and terminals can be sharp.
• Remove the oven racks and access the element from inside the oven; secure mounting screws and terminal connections when installing.
• Test function after restoring power; do not operate with exposed wiring.

This coil-style surface heating element replaces a damaged or worn cooktop burner to restore reliable heat for stovetop cooking. Designed for direct swap-in replacement on compatible electric ranges, it returns even, predictable heating to the affected burner. What it does

• Heats cookware on the cooktop when the range surface control is turned on.
• Provides the primary heat source for simmering, boiling, and frying.
• Common symptom fixer: burner does not heat or produces intermittent/uneven heat.
• Visible damage indicators: broken coil, burnt spots, or loose connection at terminals.

• One surface heating element (coil).

• Disconnect power to the range at the breaker before starting any work.
• Handle terminals carefully; ensure the element is fully cooled and use insulated tools.
• Secure connections; replace damaged clips or terminal block if present.

This switch bushing fits the control shaft to stabilize and guide rotary switches, helping restore proper knob alignment and smooth operation. It prevents wobble and uneven contact that can cause intermittent control behavior. What it does:

• Centers and supports the control shaft to keep the switch and knob aligned
• Reduces wobble and lateral play that can make knobs feel loose or inconsistent
