Kenmore 25371112103 top-mount refrigerator Parts

Most Kenmore refrigerators last 12 to 15 years. For the Kenmore 25371112103 top-mount refrigerator, regular care like keeping airflow clear, cleaning, and maintaining good door sealing helps you reach that typical lifespan and often go beyond it (especially with consistent upkeep).

• Condenser coil cleanliness (dust buildup makes the compressor work harder)
• Door gasket condition (air leaks cause longer run times and frost issues)
• Stable power supply (voltage drops can stress the compressor)
• Good ventilation around the cabinet (blocked airflow raises operating temps)
• Correct temperature settings (over-cooling increases wear)

• Vacuum and brush condenser coils and the condenser fan area every 6 to 12 months.
• Keep door gaskets clean; wipe with mild soap and water, then dry.
• Confirm doors close fully and do not pop open after loading.
• Replace burned-out bulbs only with the correct type and unplug the refrigerator first.
• Avoid extension cords and outlets controlled by a wall switch.

A refrigerator that runs longer and hotter than it should wears out the sealed system faster. The owner guidance for this model emphasizes safe power practices and proper use and care, which directly supports longer compressor and cooling-system life.

For model-specific operating and care details, use the 25371112103 owner's manual.

Kenmore is a brand name sold by Sears, and model 25371112103 is part of the Kenmore 253 model prefix family shown in the model number format in the 25371112103 owner’s manual. In this series, the 253 prefix is commonly associated with refrigerators built for Kenmore by Frigidaire (Electrolux).

The most reliable way is to use the identification label inside the fresh food compartment (the manual notes the serial plate is located inside the refrigerator compartment).

• Look for the model and serial tag inside the refrigerator section
• Check for a manufacturer name such as Frigidaire or Electrolux on the label
• Write down the full model number and serial number before ordering parts
• Match parts by model number 25371112103 (not just “Kenmore 253”) to avoid fit issues

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

Knowing who built the refrigerator helps you choose the right replacement parts and troubleshooting steps, especially for sealed system components and common wear items like a refrigerator light bulb or door gasket.

If you are replacing a common item, match by model first, then verify the part ID. For example, the refrigerator light bulb 316538904 is a model-matched part option for this refrigerator.

Kenmore model 25371112103 is a top-mount refrigerator, not an upright freezer; its cubic-foot capacity is listed in the product specifications section of the 25371112103 owner's manual. Use that spec (not an upright-freezer rating) when planning food storage or measuring fit.

We recommend using the manual because it’s the model-specific source for capacity and other key specs.

• Open the 25371112103 owner's manual
• Look for “Product specifications” or “Capacity” (often shown as total, refrigerator, and freezer)
• Record the total cubic feet and the freezer vs. fresh food breakdown
• If you’re comparing models, also note the exterior width and height listed near the capacity

Capacity numbers are only meaningful when they match the appliance type. A top-mount refrigerator’s cubic feet includes both compartments, so it will not compare 1:1 with an upright freezer’s all-freezer storage.
