Robert for Model Number 790.9641240C

I replaced the right rear element. The customer had an apliance guy out and had left it as an extra element. The old one just would not come on. The new one sseams to be short cycling ( would come on for 1-2 second them shut off. "wash and repeat". The new element appeared to be the same. Would it be bad or do I look at the switch? I am assuming that the thermostat is located in the burner. How would I test that? Thanks for you company's service.

1 Answer

Robert, When an element is short cycling, the issue will be caused by a faulty switch.

Dee, it would be recommended that the switch 316436001 is tested for 240VAC outgoing while the switch is in the on position from terminal H1 to H2. If there is voltage, the element 903118-9010 would be the likely failure. It is replaceable and the item information is available on the item page.

Tom for Model Number Kenmore 790.9600.2601 smooth top range

Both large burner switches on my range need replacing. I'm encountering a conflict regarding the correct switches. The current (bad) switch for the front burners has model number 316021501 stenciled on it (also QE214312). However, the references I've found online default to part number 316436001, including your listing for the manufacturer's part number for your part AP3885460. I was hoping you might direct me to proper wiring instructions based on the color codes of the wires connected to the switch and if I can use the alternate switch ...6001 on this range.

1 Answer

Tom, the manufacturer shows the infinite switch 316436001 as being used with the large burners of the model provided. The wires will transfer over to the same terminal labels. L1 to L1 (double black wires), P to P (purple wire), L2 to L2 (red wire), and H2 to H2 (brown wire for the right, orange for the left).

Hello Michelle, Depending on which element you need, the parts numbers are as follows: Left and Right rear use element 318178110. The front left element uses 5304533520. The front right uses 316282101. The rear center warming center uses 140273621015 which has been discontinued by the manufacturer with no satisfactory replacement. Thank you for your patience and understanding in this matter.

Jesse, Thanks for the question!!! I am thinking you might need a new burner element part number 5304516159. Since it is in and out it could also be a poor connection at the harness block 5304516152. Remove that burner and check out those connections.
