Kenmore 25360604413 refrigerator Parts

Your Kenmore refrigerator’s model number is printed on the appliance ID label. On Kenmore model 25360604413, you will typically find that label inside the fresh food compartment, inside the freezer, or behind the lower kickplate. Confirm the exact location in the 25360604413 owner's manual.

Where to look first (most common spots)

Check these locations in order; use a flashlight and look for a sticker or metal plate with MODEL and SERIAL:

• Inside the refrigerator compartment on a side wall (often near the crisper area)
• Inside the freezer compartment on a side wall or back wall
• On the frame just inside the door opening (door jamb area)
• Behind the lower toe grille or kickplate at the front
• Behind or underneath the crisper drawers (on the liner wall)

What the model number looks like for Kenmore

Kenmore model numbers are usually a long number string. For this unit, the model format looks like:

Item on label	Example	What it’s used for
Model number	25360604413	Matching parts and diagrams
Serial number	(varies)	Manufacturing info and service history

Tips to read the label correctly

If the label is hard to read, these quick steps help:

• Wipe the label gently with a damp cloth, then dry it
• Take a close-up photo and zoom in
• Copy the full model number exactly (all digits, no spaces)
• If a digit is unclear, compare it to other digits on the same label

Why it matters

We use the model number to match the correct Kenmore refrigerator parts (like a door gasket, evaporator fan motor, or crisper drawer) because similar-looking refrigerators can use different shelves, bins, and electrical components.

Most Kenmore refrigerators last 10 to 15 years with normal household use. For Kenmore model 25360604413, steady temperatures, good airflow, and tight door seals are the biggest factors that help you reach (and often exceed) that average; see the 25360604413 owner's manual for model-specific care steps.

Typical lifespan and what changes it

A refrigerator’s life is usually limited by wear on the sealed system, fans, and controls, plus how hard the unit has to work in your kitchen.

• 10 to 15 years is the typical range for most refrigerators
• Hot kitchens and poor ventilation shorten life
• Dirty condenser area increases run time and stress
• Weak door sealing causes longer run times and moisture issues
• Power surges and frequent outages can damage electronics

Quick maintenance that extends life

Use these habits to reduce compressor run time and prevent common failures.

• Keep the toe grille and airflow paths clear (do not block the lower front intake)
• Maintain proper installation clearances for airflow (sides/top and rear)
• Keep doors closing easily; avoid overloading door bins and shelves
• Confirm the refrigerator sits level so doors seal consistently
• If you have an ice maker, keep the water supply stable and check for slow leaks

Installation conditions that matter (from the guide)

The installation guidance for this model calls out conditions that directly affect longevity.

Item	Recommended guideline	Why it helps lifespan
Side/top clearance	About 3/8 in.	Better air circulation, less run time
Rear clearance	About 1 in.	Reduces heat buildup behind unit
Room temperature	55°F to 110°F	Prevents poor cooling performance

Why it matters

When a refrigerator runs longer to maintain temperature (because of heat, restricted airflow, or air leaks), the compressor and fan motors cycle harder and wear faster. Good clearances and a solid door seal are simple ways to protect the most expensive components.

For Kenmore refrigerator model 25360604413, the most commonly replaced parts are the ones that wear, crack, or affect cooling and door sealing: door gaskets, bins and drawers, and key cooling-system components like fan motors and defrost parts. Use the 25360604413 owner's manual to confirm your exact configuration.

Commonly replaced parts for this model

These are frequent replacement items we see for everyday use, door wear, and cooling complaints:

• Door gaskets: frigidaire refrigerator door gasket (white) 242193206 and frigidaire refrigerator door gasket (black) 242193212
• Freezer door gasket: frigidaire refrigerator freezer door gasket (black) 242193209 or refrigerator freezer door gasket 242193218
• Door storage: frigidaire refrigerator door bin 240337901 and frigidaire refrigerator door gallon bin 240338001
• Crisper area: crisper drawer - refrigerator storage component by frigidaire 240337103 and refrigerator crisper drawer cover insert 240350608
• Cooling and airflow: refrigerator condenser fan motor 242018301 and refrigerator motor 242077705
• Defrost system: refrigerator defrost heater 242044008

Quick symptom-to-part guide

Symptom	Most common part areas	Example parts on this model
Door not sealing, frost, sweating	Door gasket, door alignment	242193206, 242193212, 242193209, 242193218
Warm fridge or freezer, weak airflow	Fan motor, condenser area	242018301, 242077705
Frost buildup on back wall, poor cooling	Defrost heater and related defrost components	242044008
Broken shelves, bins, drawers	Storage components	240337901, 240338001, 240337103

Why it matters

A leaking door seal or weak fan airflow makes the compressor run longer, causes temperature swings, and can lead to frost and moisture problems. Replacing the correct gasket, bin, or cooling component restores performance and helps protect food.

Before you order

We recommend these checks so you get the right part the first time:

• Match the part by model 25360604413 and the diagram location
• Verify color and placement (refrigerator door vs freezer door)
• Inspect for the root cause (warped door, torn gasket, ice blockage)
• If you are addressing cooling, clean dust from the condenser area before replacing parts
• After any control change or major service, allow temperature to stabilize (typically 24 hours)
