Kenmore 2537034241A refrigerator Parts

Kenmore refrigerator model 2537034241A is a bottom-mount style, but the exact cubic-foot capacity is not listed in the installation excerpts provided for this model. The most reliable way to confirm capacity is to check the model and serial plate inside the fresh food compartment and compare it to the specifications in the 2537034241A owner's manual.

How to find the exact capacity on your refrigerator

Use these quick checks to get the correct cubic feet for your specific unit:

• Look for the serial plate inside the refrigerator compartment (fresh food section), as described in the Use & Care Guide.
• Record the model number and serial number exactly as shown.
• Check the specifications section in the manual for capacity and dimensions.
• If you still need confirmation, use the recorded model and serial details when contacting support or ordering parts.

Typical capacity range for this style (helpful benchmark)

Most Kenmore bottom-mount refrigerators in this general family fall into a mid-to-large capacity range. Use this as a planning estimate until you confirm the exact spec:

Refrigerator type	Typical capacity range
Bottom-mount (freezer drawer)	18 to 26 cu. ft.
Larger bottom-mount / French door variants	22 to 28 cu. ft.

Why it matters

Capacity affects more than storage space. It also helps you choose correctly sized shelves and bins, plan kitchen fit, and compare energy use and cooling performance expectations across similar Kenmore refrigerator models.

Related tip: if you are troubleshooting instead of measuring

If the reason you are asking about capacity is tied to performance concerns (warm temps, odd display behavior, beeping), start with the Kenmore 253 series french door refrigerator error codes guide to narrow down what the refrigerator is reporting.

On Kenmore refrigerator model 2537034241A, the model and serial information is printed on a serial plate inside the fresh food (refrigerator) compartment. We use that exact model number to match the correct parts, diagrams, and Use and Care instructions.

Where to find the model number on your refrigerator

Check these common locations first:

• Inside the refrigerator compartment on a serial plate (most common)
• On an inside wall near the crisper area
• Along the door opening (hinge side) where the door seals
• Behind the toe grille or lower kick plate (some installations)

For the exact location and what the label looks like for this design, use the 2537034241A owner's manual.

How to read the model number (what each part tells us)

Kenmore model numbers are typically a prefix plus a longer identifier. Here is how we interpret it for parts lookup:

What you see	What it means	Why it matters
Brand name (Kenmore)	Retail brand	Helps narrow the product family
Model number (2537034241A)	Exact configuration	Ensures correct fit and compatibility
Serial number	Unique unit ID	Useful for service history and production run

Tips to avoid ordering the wrong part

• Copy the model number exactly, including any letters at the end (the A matters)
• Take a clear photo of the serial plate before it wears or gets cleaned off
• Use the model number when choosing parts like a door gasket, ice maker, or control board
• If you are replacing a part tied to the water system, confirm your refrigerator has the same features (ice maker, dispenser)

Why it matters

Even small model number differences can change door style, hinge design, wiring harness connections, and ice maker or dispenser components. Using the full model number helps us match the correct Kenmore refrigerator parts the first time.

Water under a Kenmore 2537034241A bottom-mount refrigerator is usually caused by a defrost drain that is clogged or frozen, or by a water connection that is seeping and dripping into the drain pan. We recommend checking for leaks at the water line connections and clearing the drain path.

Quick checks we recommend first

• Look for water at the back of the fresh food compartment; a clogged defrost drain often leaves water pooling inside before it shows up underneath.
• Check the drain pan underneath for cracks, misalignment, or overflow.
• Inspect the house water supply connection and the refrigerator inlet connection for slow drips.
• If you recently moved the refrigerator or it was stored in freezing temperatures, drain and refill the water system before normal use.
• Confirm the refrigerator is level and slightly tilted back (front higher than back) so water flows to the drain correctly.

Step-by-step: clear a clogged or frozen defrost drain

1. Unplug the refrigerator.
2. Remove items and shelves as needed to access the drain area at the back bottom inside the fresh food section.
3. Flush the drain hole with warm water (a turkey baster works well) and clear debris with a pipe cleaner.
4. If the drain is frozen, gently melt ice with warm water; avoid sharp tools that can puncture plastic.
5. Recheck for water under the unit over the next 24 hours.

If the leak is related to the water supply or ice maker

A slow seep at a fitting can run down the cabinet and look like a “mystery” leak.

Symptom	Most likely source	What to do
Water only when dispensing or making ice	Water line or inlet valve area	Tighten fittings, inspect tubing for cracks
Constant small puddle	Slow drip into drain pan	Dry pan, watch for fresh drips
Ice maker not filling correctly plus leaking	Inlet valve not sealing	Test and replace if needed

If you suspect the valve, the correct replacement for this model is the refrigerator water inlet valve assembly 242253002.

Why it matters

Leaks can damage flooring and can also lead to ice buildup, poor cooling, and door gasket sealing problems over time. The installation checklist also calls for verifying there are no water leaks at connections and rechecking in 24 hours.
