Kenmore 25354623408 refrigerator Parts

On Kenmore side-by-side refrigerator model 25354623408, the model number is printed on the serial plate located inside the refrigerator (fresh food) compartment. Open the refrigerator door and look along the interior walls for the label that lists both the model and serial numbers.

Where to look (quick checklist)

• Open the refrigerator door (not the freezer door)
• Look inside the fresh food compartment for the serial plate
• Check the side walls near the front opening
• Also check near the top interior area where labels are commonly placed
• The label typically shows Model Number and Serial Number together

What the label looks like and what you will see

The serial plate is a printed label. For this Kenmore 253 model series, the model number format commonly begins with 253.

Model number	Matching parts and diagrams	25354623408
Serial number	Identifying production details	Varies by unit
Purchase date (sometimes recorded by owner)	Service records	Varies

Tips for reading and preserving the serial plate

• Use a flashlight and take a photo so you can zoom in
• Write the model number exactly as shown (all digits)
• Clean the label gently with soap and water only
• Avoid abrasive cleaners that can erase the printing

Why it matters

We use the model number to pull the correct Kenmore parts list, diagrams, and compatible replacements (for example, the correct water filter, door bins, gaskets, or ice maker components) for your exact refrigerator configuration.

For more model-specific details and label location guidance, check the owner's manual.

Your Kenmore refrigerator model 25354623408 has its exact cubic-foot capacity listed in the specifications section of the owner's manual. If you need a quick confirmation without paperwork, the model and serial plate inside the fresh food compartment is the most reliable place to match the model to its published capacity.

Fast ways to find the capacity for model 25354623408

Use these options in order; they are the quickest and most accurate for this Kenmore side-by-side refrigerator:

• Check the specifications pages in the owner's manual
• Look for the serial plate inside the refrigerator compartment (the manual notes it is inside the fresh food section)
• If you are measuring for fit, use cabinet dimensions and door swing clearance from the installation guide
• If you are comparing models, match the full model number exactly (all digits matter)

What “cubic feet” means (and why it can be confusing)

Cubic feet is the refrigerator’s total internal storage volume (fresh food plus freezer). It is not the same as usable shelf space because bins, the ice system, and air channels reduce what you can actually load.

Typical capacity range (for context)

Most Kenmore side-by-side refrigerators of this style fall into a fairly narrow range:

Refrigerator type	Typical total capacity range	Best use
Side-by-side (common)	20 to 26 cu. ft.	Balanced fridge and freezer access
Compact/apt size	3 to 10 cu. ft.	Small spaces
Large French door	25 to 30+ cu. ft.	Maximum fresh food storage

Why it matters

Knowing the correct cubic-foot capacity helps us choose the right replacement parts and accessories (for example, the correct filter style and service intervals), and it helps you plan kitchen fit, airflow clearance, and food storage expectations.

If your question is really about water and ice performance, the genuine Kenmore refrigerator water filter WFCB is the model-matched filter shown for this refrigerator, and the manual describes the rear filter location and system startup.

The most common issues we see on Kenmore refrigerators like model 25354623408 are warm temperatures from airflow or defrost problems, water leaks from drain or seal issues, ice maker and dispenser troubles, and unusual noises from fans. Many of these are fixed with cleaning, simple adjustments, or replacing a worn part.

Most common symptoms and what usually causes them

• Not cooling or too warm: dirty condenser coils, evaporator fan problems, or a defrost issue causing ice buildup
• Freezer cold but fresh food warm: restricted airflow or a damper/airflow control problem
• Water leaking or puddles: clogged defrost drain, loose water line, or a door not sealing
• Ice maker not making ice: water supply issue, frozen fill path, or ice maker component failure
• Noises (buzzing, rattling, squealing): fan blade rubbing ice, worn fan motor, or items vibrating against the cabinet

Quick checks we recommend first (safe, no tools)

1. Confirm controls are set correctly; allow 24 hours after changes for temperatures to stabilize (per the troubleshooting guidance in the owner's manual).
2. Check door closure: a door that is slightly open or opened too often can cause warm temps and moisture.
3. Clean condenser coils (common cause of warm temps).
4. Look for frost buildup on the freezer back wall; heavy frost often points to a defrost problem.
5. Inspect the ice bin: if cubes clump and jam, remove the bin and shake to loosen; do not use sharp tools (covered in the owner's manual).

Parts that commonly solve these problems on 25354623408

Problem area	Common fix	Example part for this model
Warm temps, poor airflow	Replace failed defrost thermostat	Refrigerator defrost bi-metal thermostat 5303918214
Fan noise or weak airflow	Replace damaged fan blade	Refrigerator evaporator fan blade 5308000010
Leaks, sweating, warm temps	Replace torn door gasket	Refrigerator freezer door gasket 241786014
Bad taste, slow water, dispenser issues	Replace water filter	Genuine Kenmore refrigerator water filter WFCB

Why it matters

Cooling and ice maker complaints usually trace back to airflow, door sealing, or water flow. Fixing those early helps protect food temperatures, reduces frost and moisture, and prevents dispenser and ice bin jams.

For Kenmore model 25354623408, we read the model number as a prefix plus a full model identifier; the 253 prefix is the key clue because it identifies the manufacturing source family, and the remaining digits narrow down the exact refrigerator design and parts match. Your model and serial tag is located inside the fresh food (refrigerator) compartment.

Where to find the model number on this refrigerator

We use the model number from the serial plate to match the correct Kenmore refrigerator parts and documentation.

• Open the fresh food (refrigerator) door
• Look along the inside walls for the serial plate (model and serial information)
• Write down the full model number exactly as shown (all digits)
• Record the serial number too (helps with production variations)
• Clean the serial plate only with soap and water

For the exact location and how Kenmore labels the plate on this unit, use the owner's manual.

How Kenmore model numbers are typically structured

Kenmore model numbers are usually easiest to read in two chunks: the prefix and the remainder.

Model number section	Example from your model	What it tells us	Why it matters
Prefix (first 3 digits)	253	Manufacturer source family	Helps route you to the right parts diagrams and part styles
Remainder (next digits)	54623408	Exact design and feature set	Ensures the right fit for items like door bins, gaskets, and filters

Why the prefix matters when ordering parts

The prefix is the fastest way to avoid ordering the wrong part for a Kenmore refrigerator because Kenmore-branded appliances can be built by different manufacturers.

• Parts like door gaskets and shelves can look similar but mount differently
• Water filter styles vary by housing and line routing
• Ice maker and dispenser components can change across design revisions
• Even light bulbs can differ by base type and wattage

Quick example for this model page

If you are matching parts for water and ice, we use the full model number 25354623408 and then confirm the part by description and ID. For example, the water filter listed for this model is genuine Kenmore refrigerator water filter WFCB.

Why it matters

Using the complete model number (not just “Kenmore side-by-side”) prevents fit issues and repeat repairs; it is the foundation for correct troubleshooting, correct parts diagrams, and correct replacement parts.
