What would cause a kenmore stove to trip a breaker and now will not work?

sounds like a door lock switch going bonkers? seen it b4

Normally if a burner burned out and or shorted, it would burn a fuse rather than kick out the breaker.

The clock runs on 110 volts and the oven at 220 volts. If the cook top is on, the issue is in the stove. Best left to a qualified technician.
If the cooktop is also not functioning, check the breaker.

The safest thing to do would be to turn off the power ( un-plug it or turn off the breaker) or the gas or both to the unit. Turning off the power would probably be easier. There should be a gas shut off valve behind it.

turn the breaker off and check your connections on the element
You obviously have a wire touching the oven

when turning on stove, the current inrush is too great for the breaker. you need to look at the data plate on stove first to see if the current (amp) usage is greater than your breaker. If not, then you may have a faulty element or control

there is a short for sure, sometimes when the heating element burns out and melts, it touches the metal inside the housing causing a short. inspect the heating elements in the oven(top and bottom). the loud buzzing sound is what a shorting out heating element makes as it melts like a weldin rod, usually because of using tin foil(not recommended)

if it is an old stove i would say have it serviced/checked over. if it is a newer stove i am guessing the circuit breaker predates it and is rated for the old stove therefore you will need to have a larger circuit breaker installed (by a licenced electrician)

if your breakers have become week they may trip with a lesser amp draw.sooooo if they trip right when you turn on a switch on the range, then it is a short in the range.if it trips after your using it abit its your breaker.hope it helps God bless ,tom
