Kenmore Refrigerator Service for Houses, Condos and Rentals
Kenmore has no connection to us, and we aren't one of its authorized repair centers. If your refrigerator is still under Kenmore's factory warranty, start with Kenmore. After that coverage ends, send us the model number and what it's doing when you book; that lets us research parts before the visit.
How a Refrigerator Repair Visit Works
Tell Us the Symptom
Note the temperatures if you have a thermometer, any frost or puddles, and the model number from inside the door.
In-Home Testing
We read coil and cabinet temperatures, check both fans and test the defrost parts before naming the fault.
A Price You Approve
We show you the failed part and give a price for the fix; the work waits for your yes.
Fix and Check
After the repair we test a full cycle and check for leaks, noise or codes before we leave.
Inside a Kenmore refrigerator
With a Kenmore refrigerator, the prefix decides the whole approach. A 106 unit is Whirlpool-built, so the usual suspects are the defrost heater, its bimetal, the fan behind the freezer panel and the ice module. A 253 unit comes from the Frigidaire family, with a different ice maker, an air damper on many models and evaporator fans that turn noisy as frost reaches the blade. A 795 unit is LG engineering, some with a linear compressor and a door-mounted ice maker that can frost over. The symptoms look alike, often a warm top shelf above a hard-frozen freezer, but the parts and procedures differ. A refrigerator living in a hot garage carries extra strain, so we note where it sits as well as what the label says.
Common Kenmore refrigerator failures
- Defrost heater or thermostat open

Didn't see your question?
Tell us the brand, model number and the symptom. A few things can be ruled out from a description; most faults need testing on site.
Unlikely. A freezer that stays cold means the sealed system is doing its job. Far more often the evaporator has iced over after a defrost failure, the evaporator fan has stopped or a damper is stuck, and the model prefix tells us which design we are testing.
Yes. A 795 Kenmore is an LG refrigerator under the badge, with LG parts and test routines. Certain models run LG's linear compressor; if that sealed system fails, the repair is a bigger decision, and we explain it before quoting.
