790441 Kenmore - Overview

First we removed two screws under the rim of the range top to open the lid. Lifted the lid and removed the screws from the bracket that holds the elements, Be careful with the clips that hold the element in, if you break them or bend them there aren't any more! Also note which holes they were in, they are marked according to the different sizes of elements. Disconnected the wires, needed needlenose pliers to grip them...connected new element, popped it back in place, replaced bracket, closed top ...Easy peasy!!!

no problem slightly different shape than original but labels for wires matched up mounting screws aligned perfectly works great

Don't be put off when you first get the new switch. It's not an exact duplicate to the one your replacing. You will notice that the new switch has 5 electrical connectors and you'll see 6 wires on the old one. start by removing the L1 wire(s) off the old switch, you will see that it actually has 2 wires connected to the same connector. Now connect to the L1 position on the new switch. Continuie with taking one wire at a time off the old switch and connect to the corresponding connector on the new switch (all the connectors are coded the same, ex. L1, P, etc....) Once complete the switch and burner worked perfectly
