Kenmore 25367872506 refrigerator Parts

Kenmore refrigerator model 25367872506 is a top-mount (top-freezer) refrigerator; its exact capacity (cubic feet) is listed on the model’s rating information and in the product literature. For the most accurate “size” details (capacity and cabinet dimensions), use the specifications section in the 25367872506 owner's manual.

What “size” can mean (and what to check)

Refrigerator “size” is usually one of these:

• Capacity (cu. ft.): how much food space the refrigerator and freezer provide
• Exterior dimensions: width, height, depth (important for fit)
• Interior layout: shelf and bin space (important for storage)
• Door swing clearance: space needed to open doors fully

If you are measuring for a replacement, we recommend confirming all four.

How to find the exact capacity and dimensions for 25367872506

Use these quick checks:

• Look in the specifications pages of the 25367872506 owner's manual
• Check the model and serial tag inside the fresh food compartment (the manual notes it is located inside the refrigerator compartment)
• Measure the cabinet with a tape measure (width, height, depth), then compare to your cutout space

Quick measuring tips

• Measure height from floor to top of cabinet (include hinges if they extend above the cabinet)
• Measure depth with and without handles (handles can add noticeable depth)
• Leave airflow clearance (most top-mount refrigerators need some space behind and above for ventilation)

Typical size range for Kenmore top-mount refrigerators

If you need a planning estimate before you confirm the exact spec, most Kenmore top-mount units fall into these common ranges:

Spec	Typical range
Capacity	14 to 21 cu. ft.
Width	28 to 33 inches
Height	61 to 67 inches
Depth	30 to 34 inches

Why it matters

Getting the right “size” prevents installation problems like doors hitting walls, poor airflow that hurts cooling performance, and shelves/bins not matching your storage needs.

For Kenmore model 25367872506 (top-mount), the most common refrigerator problems are not cooling, excess frost/ice buildup, water leaks, door sealing issues, and unusual noises. Many fixes start with basic checks and cleaning; use the 25367872506 owner's manual troubleshooting section to narrow the cause.

Most common symptoms and what usually causes them

• Not cooling or warm temperatures: temperature control set incorrectly (including set to “0”), dirty condenser area, airflow blocked, evaporator fan issue, or a sealed-system problem.
• Frost or ice buildup: door left ajar, weak door seal, or a defrost system issue.
• Noises or vibration: cabinet not level, weak floor, normal operating sounds, or a fan/compressor-related noise.
• Water puddles: clogged/iced drain path, door left open causing excess frost melt, or water supply/ice maker issues (if equipped).
• Light not working: bulb failed or door switch stuck.

Quick checks we recommend first (fast, no parts)

• Confirm the temperature control is not set to “0” (that stops cooling but does not shut off power).
• Make sure the plug is fully seated in the outlet; avoid extension cords.
• If it will not run, check the breaker/fuse (the manual references a 15-amp time-delay fuse) and wait 20 minutes in case it is in a defrost cycle.
• Level the refrigerator to reduce vibration and help doors seal consistently.
• Unplug the refrigerator before cleaning or replacing a light bulb.

Parts that commonly relate to these symptoms

Symptom	Common part area	Example part for this model
Frost buildup, warm temps	Defrost system	Refrigerator defrost bi-metal thermostat 5303918202
Warm fridge/freezer, odd airflow noise	Evaporator fan area	Refrigerator evaporator fan blade 5308000010
Light out	Interior lighting	Refrigerator light bulb 316538904
Door not sealing, moisture/frost	Door gasket	Refrigerator gasket 242193213

Why it matters

Cooling and frost issues often start as airflow or sealing problems. Catching them early helps protect food temperatures, reduces compressor run time, and prevents ice buildup that can block vents and cause bigger performance problems.

Kenmore is a brand name sold by Sears, and model 25367872506 is part of Kenmore’s 253 model prefix family, which is commonly associated with Frigidaire/Electrolux-built refrigerators. For confirmation on your exact unit, match the model and serial information shown in the 25367872506 owner's manual.

How to confirm the manufacturer on your specific refrigerator

Use the model and serial tag inside the fresh food compartment (the manual notes the serial plate is inside the refrigerator compartment). The tag typically lists the full model number and may include additional manufacturing identifiers.

• Open the refrigerator door and look along the interior side walls or ceiling area
• Write down the full model number and serial number exactly as shown
• Confirm the model prefix starts with 253 (as shown in the manual)
• Compare the information to the identification section in the 25367872506 owner's manual
• Use the model number when ordering parts like a door gasket, light bulb, or crisper drawer

What the “253” prefix usually means

Kenmore model numbers often start with a 3-digit prefix that indicates the original manufacturer.

What you see	What it typically indicates	Why it matters
Model starts with 253	Commonly Frigidaire/Electrolux-built platform	Helps match the correct parts diagrams and compatible components
Model starts with 970	Also shown as a possible prefix in the manual	Confirms you are using the correct documentation set

Why it matters when buying parts

The manufacturer platform affects fit and compatibility for common replacement items such as door bins, shelves, gaskets, and cooling system components.

• Door seal and alignment parts must match the door design
• Interior storage parts (bins, shelves, crisper drawers) are model-specific
• Cooling parts (evaporator, condenser fan components) vary by platform

If you are replacing a broken drawer, we recommend matching by model first, then selecting the exact part, such as the crisper drawer - refrigerator storage component by frigidaire 240337103.
