My broiler element was sparking and emmitting a odor a couple off weeks ago. Now it has gone out along with the top burners and lights on control panel. In other words , nothing works.
Is it worth saving?
Can I do it myself
Kenmore Model 790.9611 Thanks

Hi. Most likely there is the short in the broil element which caused the breaker to open. Reset the circuit breaker and check the surface elements and clock. If it's OK - turn the power off, pull out the broil element and check with a multimeter if there is 240VAC to the element when the clock is set for broil. If there is 240VAC - replace the element Part number: 316200600
Thank you. Simon.

Thank you. Simon. NO the burners or lights work now.

Have you reset the breakers? Is there a 240VAC to the range?
Simon.
