Kenmore 25352649301 refrigerator Parts

On Kenmore side-by-side refrigerator model 25352649301, the model number is printed on the serial plate inside the refrigerator (fresh food) compartment. Open the refrigerator door and look along the interior walls near the top front area for the label. See the owner's manual for the exact label location and what the plate looks like.

The serial plate typically includes both identifiers you need:

• Model number (for example, 25352649301) used to match parts like a water filter or door gasket
• Serial number used to identify the production run
• Electrical ratings (voltage/amps)
• Safety and certification markings

• Open the refrigerator door (not the freezer door)
• Check the inside refrigerator compartment first
• Look on the upper side walls and near the front frame area
• Wipe the area with a damp cloth if the label is dusty
• Use your phone flashlight to read small print

We use the exact model number to pull the correct parts list and diagrams for your refrigerator. That prevents ordering the wrong items, especially for model-specific parts like a water filter, water inlet valve, or door gasket.

If your Kenmore 25352649301 isn’t cooling and you hear repeated clicking from the compressor area, the compressor may be failing to start or may be shutting off on overload. Before condemning the compressor, we check power, controls, condenser cleanliness, and whether the unit is simply in a normal defrost cycle (about 30 minutes).

• Make sure the freezer control is not set to “O” (OFF).
• Confirm the refrigerator has power (outlet, breaker, GFI circuit).
• Listen for the compressor: a steady hum is normal; repeated click-then-silence points to a start problem.
• Check condenser coils for heavy dust; dirty coils can cause long run times and poor cooling.
• Allow time after changes: temperature adjustments need about 24 hours to stabilize.

For model-specific control locations and operating notes, use the owner's manual.

A compressor issue usually shows up as warm temperatures even though the refrigerator is running.

• Refrigerator and freezer both warm, and the compressor is not running (or only tries briefly)
• Repeated clicking from the compressor area (overload cycling)
• Loud buzzing or hard-start sounds when it tries to start
• Unit runs “too much or too long” but temperatures never recover
• Evaporator fan may run, but there is little to no cooling

Replacing a compressor is a major repair; ruling out controls, airflow, door sealing, and defrost issues prevents unnecessary parts replacement and gets your side-by-side refrigerator cooling reliably again.

Yes. We still carry replacement parts for Kenmore refrigerators, including model 25352649301. You can match parts by model number and symptoms, then replace common wear items like water filters, door gaskets, light bulbs, and ice maker components to keep your side-by-side running properly.

These are some of the most frequently replaced items for this model:

• Water filter (for taste, odor, and flow issues)
• Door gaskets (for warm temps, frost, and sweating around the doors)
• Water inlet valve (for no water at the dispenser or no ice production)
• Defrost thermostat (for frost buildup and poor airflow)
• Light bulb (for interior lighting)

If you are starting with a water and ice issue, the owner's manual explains filter status and replacement timing.

Using model-matched parts helps restore proper temperatures, airflow, and water flow. On a side-by-side like the Kenmore 25352649301, small issues (a weak door seal or restricted filter) can quickly lead to frost, warm spots, or dispenser problems.

• Confirm the full model number: 25352649301
• Compare the part ID and description to your original part
• Use your symptom (no ice, leaking, warm fridge) to narrow the part category
• Check the diagrams for location and quantity needed
• Follow the replacement steps and safety notes in the installation guide
