What makes 790.42739403 stand out.

  • Radiant or coil cooking elements
  • Hot-surface indicator lights
  • Express-select controls

The Kenmore 790.42739403 is a discontinued / legacy Frigidaire-built electric cooktop — no longer in production, but we still service it. The Frigidaire-built electronics behind this cooktop share the same EOC diagnostic pattern as Kenmore's 790 ranges.

Kenmore electric and gas cooktops (Frigidaire-built 790, Roper-built 911) are diagnosed by symptom — a radiant element or gas burner that will not heat or light, a control lock (the "L" or "Loc" indicator) mistaken for a problem, or a cracked glass top. We confirm the model prefix, then test the element, switch, or igniter before fitting a genuine OEM part. See cooktop repair.
