KitchenAid KEBS279BBL

Model # KEBS279BBL

KitchenAid sold the KEBS279BBL as part of its US wall oven range. No published specification for this model was recovered. What survives is the model number and a dated record of when KitchenAid was showing it, and that is what is set out here. KitchenAid’s US product site carried it from February 2014 to July 2014, and nothing was captured for it afterwards.

KitchenAid appends a two-digit production-revision code to the base number on the rating plate, and the codes actually observed for this model are KEBS279BBL00. A plate reading one of those is still a KEBS279BBL; the suffix identifies which production revision you have, and it occasionally decides which version of a part fits. A KEBS279BBL in use today is about a decade old, and the door seal, the hinges and the heating elements account for most of what it gets called out for. Discontinued does not mean unrepairable, but it does mean availability of the specific part for a KEBS279BBL is established before any figure is put on the job.

FAQ

KitchenAid KEBS279BBL FAQ

No - front badging is a series name, not a model number. The KEBS279BBL number comes off the plate inside the door, and that is the string to work from. Two machines wearing the same front badge can differ in parts, so the KEBS279BBL plate is what settles it.

Often yes, and where they cannot we say so at the point we find out, so you are not billed for work that cannot be completed. That check comes first on a discontinued model like the KEBS279BBL, not last.

With the oven switched off at its supply, the dead element on a KEBS279BBL is tested for continuity and its relay on the control board is checked. On a KEBS279BBL a single dead element far more often means the element or its relay than the whole control.
