Kenmore 25374802408 refrigerator Parts

Your Kenmore refrigerator model number is printed on the serial plate inside the fresh food (refrigerator) compartment. On model 25374802408, the owner’s guide notes the serial plate is located inside the refrigerator compartment; write down the full model number exactly as shown. See the owner's manual for the exact label location and examples.

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

• Inside the refrigerator compartment on a side wall (most common)
• On the ceiling of the fresh food compartment near the light
• On the inside wall near the crisper area (sometimes behind or beside drawers)
• Along the door frame when you open the refrigerator door
• Behind the lower front kickplate or grille (less common)

Record the information exactly as it appears on the serial plate.

• Model number (for example, 25374802408)
• Serial number
• Purchase date (helpful for service history and correct revisions)

Kenmore refrigerators often have multiple versions that look similar. Using the exact model number prevents ordering the wrong door gasket, shelf trim, or ice maker components.

Once you have the model number, you can order parts from the list for 25374802408 on this page, or search by model on Sears PartsDirect.

• Compare the cabinet style (top-mount/top-freezer) and exterior size to typical capacity ranges (helpful if the label is missing).
• Confirm you are reading the full model number from the plate (not a partial number from a sticker or receipt).

A top-mount refrigerator like Kenmore model 25374802408 puts the freezer on top and the fresh-food section below, so the main drawbacks are more bending to reach everyday items, fewer organization features than many bottom-freezer designs, and fewer built-in dispenser options. For layout and feature details, use the 25374802408 owner's manual.

• More bending for fresh food: the refrigerator compartment is lower, so you reach down more often.
• Less “grab-and-go” organization: many top-mount designs have fewer full-width pullout drawers and fewer door-bin configurations than some bottom-mount styles.
• Fewer dispenser configurations: top-mount models are less likely to include through-the-door ice and water.
• Freezer access can be tighter: upper shelves can be deep, so items can get buried.
• Door swing clearance matters: if the hinge side is near a wall, you may need extra space to open the door wider.

We see these simple adjustments help top-mount owners get better day-to-day usability:

• Keep everyday items at waist-to-eye level in the refrigerator; store rarely used items lower.
• Use bins to group foods (snacks, lunch items, condiments) so you pull one bin instead of searching.
• Adjust door bins and racks to fit your most-used containers (many models allow repositioning).
• Confirm you have proper installation clearances (sides/top and back) so airflow and door access are not restricted.
• If you have an ice maker, keep the freezer organized so the ice bucket area stays clear.

Most refrigerator use happens in the fresh-food section. With a top-mount layout, convenience depends heavily on how you organize shelves, door racks, and drawers, plus making sure the unit is positioned for good door opening and airflow.

Most Kenmore refrigerators, including model 25374802408, typically last 10 to 15 years with normal household use. Regular maintenance (cleaning condenser coils, keeping door gaskets sealing, and fixing cooling issues early) is what most often determines whether you land closer to 10 years or closer to 15.

A refrigerator’s life is mainly driven by compressor run time, airflow, and how hard the sealed system has to work.

• Maintenance habits: clean condenser coils, keep vents clear, and defrost issues addressed quickly
• Door seal condition: a leaking gasket forces longer run times and temperature swings
• Room conditions: hot garages, tight cabinetry, and dusty areas shorten life
• Usage patterns: frequent door openings and overpacking reduce airflow
• Timely repairs: replacing small parts early can prevent bigger failures

We recommend these routine steps for a Kenmore top-mount refrigerator like 25374802408:

• Vacuum condenser coils and the toe-kick area every 6 to 12 months
• Confirm the doors close on their own and sit level; adjust leveling feet if needed
• Keep food from blocking return vents in the fresh food section and freezer
• Inspect the door seal for gaps, tears, or hardened sections
• Replace broken storage parts so drawers and doors close fully

If wear items are preventing proper sealing or normal use, replacing them can reduce compressor strain.

A refrigerator that seals well and breathes properly runs fewer hours per day. That reduces wear on the compressor and evaporator fan, helps temperatures stay stable, and typically extends overall service life.

For model-specific care and safety guidance (including proper electrical supply and shutdown steps), follow the owner's manual. If you need replacement parts for 25374802408, you can use the parts list for this model or search by model number on Sears PartsDirect.
