I have kenmore ceramic top range model number 79096011407, the glass top is cracked and I want to replace it but don't know how it comes off the manual is lost. There are three screws above where the oven door meets the range top.

It is not advisable to use a broken ceramic top.

That Samsung model number is an oven. You possibly have a samsung c61r2aee hob. The warranty is usually 2 years from new, so if it is still in that time you can try for a replacement although warranty would not cover breakage caused by dropping something on it, so you may have to lie.

You can get replacement glass for it, the cost depending on where you are. Replacement goes like this

Hello, welcome to FixYa.

The short answer is yes it can be repaired, however it requires replacing the glass top unfortunately...and as you may or may not know they are usually well in the range of $500-600 or more.

You can check on the availablilty of your particular cooktop at the link shown here or you may opt to contact a local service center.

you cant repair the glass but you can get the ceramic glass as a spare part. you will need the exact model number to get the correct part once done your hob looks brand new. if cracked through one of the zones you could chack there is no damage to element or themal cutout running across the centre of the element before proceeding.

You can get the main glass top, the part number is WB62T10525 and it runs just under $300.00, it is shown here as 51. It does take a bit of dis assembly to install it.

much beter to call an technician coz the glass ceramic is no warnaty,if u get wrong instalation or broke the glass u waste ur money,call the person have an expertise for that.dont try to fix by it ur self.coz if the technician fix it,u get an assurance for the waranty if may happen during instalation.

A small crack, turns into a big crack, Short of ordering a new piece of glass, there is no "fix" sorry. YOu can continue to use it, but eventually it will run across the cook top, and then shatter the glass... Better be safe than sorry.

Hi. Yes you can buy a new glass. Most of the come with frame top now. If you get me the model # I can look this up for you and get you an idea on cost.

HI
You should be able to replace the top only.
Normally if this is your fault, it is not covered by warranty. Normally this would be if you dropped something onto it. This would leave like a star shap series of cracks.
If its down to manufacture, this should be covered under warranty. This damage normally looks like just one long crack, no impact mark.
Check with the manufacturer

when ordering you would have to know the color also
