Kenmore 22-96853 Induction Range Repair

Kenmore range

Most common issues on this model

  1. Induction zone not heating or shutting off while a pan sits on it
  2. Cooling fan under the cooktop running loudly
  3. Turbo Boil zone not reaching rapid heat
  4. Oven not holding temperature in a self-clean or bake cycle

The Kenmore 22-96853 is an induction range with a flat ceramic-glass surface, a Turbo Boil rapid-heat zone and a 5 cu ft oven with a self-clean cycle. Induction needs a 240-volt circuit and cookware a magnet will cling to, so those two points are where a call often starts.

The maker of this range is not confirmed in our records. The model-number prefix on the label tells us the builder, and we match parts and test steps to that platform. Model and serial get copied from the label before we order anything.

On induction we check the pan first, then the induction coil, the power board and the cooling fan, since heat inside the cabinet shuts a zone down. In the oven we test the bake element, the sensor and the door lock. We give you a written price before work starts, and the job is covered by a 30-day workmanship warranty.

22-9685322-96853 questions
Why does my induction zone shut off with a pan on it?

Pan size, a warped base or heat inside the cooktop can stop a zone. We test the pan, then the coil, the power board and the cooling fan.

Do I need special cookware on the 22-96853?

Yes. Induction works only with magnetic cookware, such as cast iron or magnetic stainless. A magnet that sticks to the bottom of the pan is the quick test.

Is a loud fan under the cooktop normal?

Induction cooktops run a cooling fan, and some sound is expected. A grinding or rattling noise means a worn fan or a blocked vent, and we check both.
