Kenmore Refrigerator Repair for Owners, Renters and Landlords
We are independent and have no tie to Kenmore. If the refrigerator is still inside its Kenmore warranty, the manufacturer should be your first call. Once that coverage has ended, include the model number and the symptom in your booking so parts can be looked up ahead of the visit.
How a Refrigerator Repair Visit Works
Tell Us What's Wrong
Name the make, add the model number if it is handy, and describe the symptom. A picture of the label inside the door lets us check parts.
Diagnosis at Your Home
The technician tests the appliance along with its power, water, drain, gas or vent connections until the fault is confirmed.
A Price Before Work
We name the failed part and give you the cost of fixing it. Work starts only after you agree.
Repair and Check
The part is installed and the appliance is run through a cycle so you can watch it working.
Inside a Kenmore refrigerator
Diagnosing a Kenmore refrigerator begins at the model label, because a 106 is a Whirlpool design, a 253 is Frigidaire and a 795 is LG, and each has its own defrost system, board layout and ice maker. The complaint that brings most of them in is the same, though: the fresh-food side is too warm while the freezer seems fine. On older Whirlpool and Frigidaire units, that is usually a frosted evaporator from a failed defrost heater, thermostat or timer, or a stopped evaporator fan. LG-built models add a linear compressor and a more electronic defrost, so we read the board's diagnostics too. A top-freezer that clicks and won't start often needs a start relay. Garage refrigerators work hard in a Virginia summer, and a dusty condenser makes it worse.
Common failure points on Kenmore refrigerators
- Warm fresh-food side from a frosted coil
- Evaporator fan quit
- Compressor start relay clicking
- Ice maker or fill valve failure
- Linear compressor fault on LG-built models

Still have a question?
Get in touch with the brand, the symptom and, if you can find it, the model number. Some things we can answer right away; others need a technician in front of the machine.
The click is the overload opening after a failed start attempt. The start relay is the cheap, common culprit, so it's tested before we judge the compressor.
Yes. A 795 is built on LG's platform and a 106 on Whirlpool's, so the defrost parts, fans, boards and test steps are different. We look up the prefix before ordering.
