Kenmore 25351399105 side-by-side refrigerator Parts

Your Kenmore model 25351399105 is a side-by-side refrigerator; the exact cubic-foot capacity is listed on the model’s rating label and in the specifications section of the 25351399105 owner's manual. Most Kenmore side-by-side refrigerators of this design fall in the 22 to 26 cu. ft. range.

Use these two reliable places to confirm the official total capacity.

• Check the rating label inside the fresh food compartment (often on a side wall near the crisper area)
• Look for wording like “Total capacity”, “Total volume”, or “cu. ft.”
• In the manual, scan for Specifications, Product data, or Features
• If the manual lists separate volumes, add fresh food + freezer for total capacity
• Match the full model number 25351399105 exactly when comparing any spec sheet

“Kenmore Elite” is a product line name, not a single size. A 30.6 cu. ft. listing is commonly tied to larger French door designs, while 25351399105 is a side-by-side, so its capacity is typically lower than those French door models.

Knowing the correct cubic feet helps when comparing replacement refrigerators, planning kitchen space, and choosing storage accessories that fit your refrigerator and freezer layout.

The most common issues we see with the Kenmore 25351399105 side-by-side refrigerator involve cooling performance, ice and water dispensing, and frost buildup. Many symptoms trace back to airflow problems, defrost-system failures, or worn ice maker and water filter components; the owner's manual helps confirm settings and basic checks.

• Warm refrigerator or freezer: restricted airflow, dirty condenser area, failing condenser fan or evaporator fan, or a start/relay issue.
• Frost buildup on the back wall of the freezer: defrost heater or defrost thermostat problem.
• Ice maker not making ice: ice maker module/mold issue, frozen fill tube, or water supply problem.
• Slow water flow or bad taste/odor: clogged water filter.
• Water leaking inside or under the unit: clogged defrost drain, cracked water line, or dispenser area seepage.

1. Confirm temperature settings and allow 24 hours after changes.
2. Make sure vents inside both compartments are not blocked by food packages.
3. Clean dust from the kick plate and condenser area (unplug first).
4. Check door closing and sealing; gaps cause moisture, frost, and longer run times.
5. If ice or water is affected, verify the household shutoff valve is fully open.

Catching airflow, defrost, and filter issues early prevents food spoilage, reduces compressor run time, and helps avoid secondary problems like ice clumps, leaks, and heavy frost that can block the evaporator cover and vents.

On Kenmore side-by-side refrigerator model 25351399105, ER IF points to a cooling-airflow problem tied to the freezer fan system that feeds the ice maker and dispenser area. We treat it as an “ice fan/airflow” fault and troubleshoot for blocked vents, frost buildup, or a failing fan.

• Power reset: unplug or switch off the breaker for 5 minutes, then restore power.
• Remove the ice bin and clear clumped ice; follow the handling and cleaning steps in the 25351399105 owner’s manual.
• Confirm freezer vents are not blocked by food packages.
• Listen for the evaporator fan: steady airflow sound is normal; grinding, rattling, or silence signals a fan issue.
• Look for heavy frost on the freezer back panel; frost can physically stop the fan and restrict airflow.

If the checks above do not stop ER IF from returning, these model-listed parts are commonly involved:

• Refrigerator evaporator fan blade 5308000010: damaged blade, rubbing, or imbalance.
• Refrigerator defrost bi-metal thermostat 5303918214: defrost temperature sensing issues that can contribute to frost buildup.
• Refrigerator ice maker 5304458371: if airflow is restored but ice production remains inconsistent.

The freezer fan moves cold air through ducts to keep the ice maker and dispenser path cold. When airflow drops, ice partially melts and refreezes, leading to clumping, jams, and reduced ice production.
