Kenmore 25360509413 refrigerator Parts

You can identify your Kenmore refrigerator model by finding the model and serial tag on the cabinet liner; on Kenmore top-mount units like model 25360509413, it is commonly on an inside wall of the fresh food section or freezer, sometimes behind the lower crisper drawers or near the toe grille area. Use the 25360509413 owner's manual to confirm the exact label location and how the number is formatted.

Check these common spots first (use a flashlight and look for a sticker or metal plate):

• Inside the refrigerator compartment on a side wall
• Inside the freezer compartment on a side wall
• On the cabinet wall behind or just above the lower crisper drawers
• Along the door opening (hinge side) on the cabinet frame
• Near the bottom front area behind the toe grille (kick plate)

Record the full model number and serial number exactly as shown; this ensures we match the correct Kenmore parts list, diagrams, and installation details.

• Model number (example format: 25360509413)
• Serial number
• Any revision letters or extra digits (if shown)
• Color code or finish code (if listed)

The model number identifies the refrigerator; part numbers and part IDs identify replacement parts.

Kenmore model numbers can look similar across different series; using the exact model number prevents ordering the wrong door gasket, shelf rail, or electrical part and helps troubleshooting steps match your refrigerator’s configuration.

Your Kenmore refrigerator model 25360509413 has a specific cubic-foot capacity listed on its rating plate (model and serial tag) and in the specifications section of the owner's manual. That is the most accurate way to match capacity to your exact configuration.

• Check the rating plate inside the fresh food compartment (commonly on a side wall or near the crisper area); capacity is often shown as “Total capacity” or “Cu. Ft.”
• Look in the specs section of the owner's manual for “capacity” or “volume.”
• Use the model number exactly as shown (25360509413) when searching parts and documentation; one missing digit can point to a different size cabinet.
• Do not estimate by exterior size; two top-mount refrigerators with the same width can have different insulation thickness and usable volume.

Cubic feet is the total internal storage volume. Some documents list:

• Total capacity
• Refrigerator (fresh food) capacity
• Freezer capacity

Knowing the correct cubic-foot capacity helps when comparing models, planning kitchen space, and choosing storage components that fit your layout (for example, a replacement crisper drawer - refrigerator storage component by frigidaire 240337103 must match the interior design used in your model).

If you are ordering parts, we recommend using the model number 25360509413 and shopping from the parts list for your refrigerator, or searching by model on Sears PartsDirect.

Kenmore model numbers are read left to right; the first 3 digits identify the manufacturer code, and the remaining digits identify the specific product design and version. For your Kenmore refrigerator model 25360509413, the full number is what we use to match the correct parts list and documentation in the 25360509413 owner's manual.

Most Kenmore top-mount refrigerators list the model and serial number on a rating label. Common locations include:

• Inside the fresh food compartment on a side wall
• On the ceiling of the fresh food compartment near the controls
• Behind the crisper drawers on the cabinet wall
• On the hinge-side door frame (open the refrigerator door and look along the frame)
• On the back of the cabinet near the lower area

Kenmore model numbers typically follow this pattern:

• Prefix (first 3 digits): manufacturer code used by Kenmore
• Middle digits: product platform or series
• Ending digits: feature set, color, and production variation

Using the complete model number prevents mismatches, especially for parts that look similar but fit differently. On model 25360509413, common fit-sensitive items include:

• Door gaskets (color and door style must match)
• Shelves and door bins
• Temperature sensors and control components
• Fan parts and defrost system parts

If you are ordering, start with the parts list for model 25360509413 on this page; for broader model searches, use Sears PartsDirect.

• Copy the model number exactly as shown on the label (all digits)
• Use the full model number, not just the first 3 digits
• If a label is hard to read, take a clear photo and zoom in
• Match the appliance type (top-mount refrigerator vs. other styles)

Why it matters: Kenmore used multiple manufacturers over the years, so the prefix alone is not enough. The full model number is the fastest way to get the right Kenmore parts, diagrams, and installation details.

Most Kenmore refrigerators, including model 25360509413, last 10 to 15 years with normal use. Keeping airflow clear, maintaining good door seals, and installing the refrigerator with proper clearances helps the sealed system and fans run efficiently and can extend service life (see the 25360509413 installation guide).

A refrigerator’s life is mostly driven by compressor run time, heat removal, and how hard the unit has to work to hold temperature.

• 10 to 15 years is the normal lifespan range for household refrigerators
• Dirty condenser area makes the compressor run hotter and longer
• Warm room temperatures increase run time and wear
• Poor door sealing causes constant cycling and frost issues
• Blocked airflow (toe grille, vents, overpacked shelves) reduces cooling efficiency

Your installation setup matters because it directly affects airflow and operating conditions.

These steps reduce strain on the compressor, evaporator fan, and defrost system.

• Keep the toe grille clear for airflow
• Confirm doors close fully; clean and inspect gaskets regularly
• Avoid overloading shelves so air can circulate
• Keep temperatures steady (avoid frequent warm-load dumping)
• If you see heavy frost or warm temps, address it early; common culprits include the refrigerator defrost heater 242044008 and the refrigerator motor 242077705

A refrigerator that runs longer cycles to maintain safe food temperatures uses more energy and wears out key components faster. Good clearances and airflow reduce heat buildup, which is one of the biggest drivers of compressor and fan wear.
