Kenmore range repair, San Francisco and the Bay Area
If the range will not finish a cleaning cycle and 9d/31 returns, call (415) 825-6393 and ask for a technician visit in San Francisco or nearby. Give the code, the range model number and what you did at the harness. Details are on the Kenmore range repair page.
Model compatibility: Kenmore reuses codes across series and model years, so 9d/31 may mean something different on another appliance or generation. Confirm this against your model’s documentation and record your full model number before acting.
