Judy May 24, 2019 I have a Kenmore 790786920405, the controller board failed and I ordered a AP4510793 and installed it yesterday. The unit did not power up, I compared the boards prior to installation, it looks identical. (I had this replaced 7 years ago). I checked to make sure I installed the ribbon cable correctly. We checked voltage coming in from the harness, that was good. Is there a reset function, secret handshake for the board? Could the board be bad?
1 Answer Judy, You will want to test to see if there is 120 vac from L1 to Neutral on the control board and from L2 to the Neutral. If there is 120 vac on each of these then this will be a faulty control board. Read More...
Lorenzo T August 21, 2017 for Model Number 79078732405 Ok. The oven does not work. I try to turn on the bake and only appear F30. What is that?
1 Answer Hello Lorenzo. The F30 code is an error for a bad sensor or wiring issue on the unit. You can test this with a multi-meter TJMA-DMT3. Here is a link on how to use a multi-meter. http://forum.appliancepartspros.com/oven-repair-including-ranges-cooktops/4810-how-check-continuity-ohmmeter.html Read More...
John A. August 07, 2014 for Model Number 79078672404 The contoller seems to be functioning but the oven burner won't light. The broiler mode fires properly and shares the same burner mounted inside top of oven. Kenmore warm 'N ready. Oven temp adjusts up and down then I assume you press oven again and she should fire. Thanks!
1 Answer John, Test for 3.2-3.6 vac at the gas safety valve with the igniter turned on. If the voltage is there, you have a bad safety valve. If the voltage is low, you have a weak igniter and the igniter will need to be replaced. You can test this with a multi-meter TJMA-DMT3.
