Kenmore 25328042805 freezer Parts

On the Kenmore upright freezer model 25328042805, the model and serial number plate is typically on the upper left wall inside the freezer compartment. This is the fastest place to check before ordering parts or looking up troubleshooting steps in the 25328042805 owner's manual.

Look for a sticker or metal plate with Model and Serial information in these common spots:

• Upper left interior wall (most common for upright models)
• Inside the cabinet near the top (sometimes near the ceiling area)
• Along an interior side wall behind a shelf or bin
• On the exterior back of the cabinet (less common)
• Behind the lower front kick plate or base panel (on some designs)

The plate usually includes a model number and serial number. Record both so we can match the correct Kenmore parts list.

Kenmore model numbers in the 253 series can look similar, but small differences change which door gasket, control parts, or shelves fit. Using the exact model number helps prevent ordering the wrong part and avoids installation issues.

Most Kenmore upright freezers, including model 25328042805, do not use a single dedicated “reset” button for normal operation. Instead, you typically restore operation by correcting the cause (power loss, warm temperature alarm) and then using the temperature control or alarm controls described in the 25328042805 owner's manual.

A “reset” usually means one of these actions:

• Clear a temperature alarm: press ALARM OFF (on models with a deluxe electronic control) to silence the buzzer; the light can keep blinking until safe temperature returns.
• Reboot the control: unplug the freezer for 5 minutes, then plug it back in.
• Reset the temperature setting: adjust the UP or DOWN buttons (electronic control) or turn the control knob (electromechanical control).
• Reset after a power failure: confirm the outlet has power, then allow time for temperatures to recover.

1. Check power first: make sure the cord is firmly plugged in and the breaker is not tripped.
2. Power-cycle the freezer: unplug for 5 minutes, plug back in.
3. Set the control to a normal setting and wait several hours for temperature to stabilize.
4. If you have a Temp Alarm light/buzzer, press ALARM OFF to silence it.
5. If the freezer still will not cool, focus on airflow and sealing issues (door not closing, heavy frost, blocked vents).

A freezer that seems like it “needs a reset” is often reacting to warm temperatures from a power interruption, frequent door openings, or a door seal leak. Restoring proper temperature control and door sealing prevents food thawing and reduces compressor run time.

The exact cubic-foot capacity for Kenmore upright freezer model 25328042805 is listed on the model’s rating information (typically on the serial plate inside the cabinet) and in the specifications section of the 25328042805 owner's manual. Use that spec to confirm capacity before comparing replacement shelves, door bins, or storage layout.

Check these common places first:

• The serial plate inside the freezer (often on the upper left interior wall on upright models)
• The specifications section of the 25328042805 owner's manual
• Product listing paperwork that came with the freezer

Kenmore model numbers that look close can still have different cabinet sizes and usable storage volume. Capacity can change with:

• Shelf and basket configuration
• Evaporator cover and air channel design
• Door liner and bin depth
• Insulation thickness (affects usable interior space)

Cubic feet is the freezer’s interior storage volume, not the outside dimensions.

Knowing the correct cubic-foot capacity helps you compare energy use, plan food storage, and choose compatible organization parts (like a door bin or shelf trim) that match the interior layout for your exact Kenmore freezer model.
