Kenmore 53612 / 53614 Side by Side Refrigerator Questions & Answers
I have a 363.58275890 side by side refridgerator,
Your problem could be one of the following:
* compressor
* refrigerant-related issue (e.g.: a restriction or insufficient refrigerant)
* attachments to compressor (e.g.: relay, capacitor (if applicable), thermal overload)
*defrost timer
* defrost thermostat
Contact an appliance service company.
Kenmore Side by Side not cooling. New ADC board.
Good day,
It is possible the defrost control failed. If so, it would still be in warranty.
However, the most common part to fail, is the defrost thermostat which is located behind the rear panel, in the freezer compartment.
It is a small round disc about 1" in diameter, mounted to the top of the cooling coil.
It can be tested, with an ohm meter, but must be tested before it can warm to above 30 degrees. It should read zero ohms of resistance.
Rarely, as well, the main heater which is mounted to the bottom of the coil can fail. It's a calrod unit somewhat like the bake element of an electric range. Unplug it, and check the continuity with an ohm meter. It should test out in the 25 to 50 ohms range.
If both check O.K. then the timer has failed, and needs replaced.
Thank you for using FixYa
COILS IN FREEZER FROSTED/TEMP WON'T GET BELOW 45 '
can you feel air blowing out of the vents in the freezer comparment.sounds like the evaporator fan is not running. this is common with refrig's that have been stored for a long period of time. the fan motor bearings will seize.the motor is easy to replace your self. remove the screws in the rear panel of freezer compartment you will see the fan at the top of the coils. the fan can be purchased thru sears or any appliane parts distributor. you will need a omplete model number off of the unit it is loated near the ceiling on the right hand wall of the refrig section. good luck peyton
Freezer temp
Hello I can help with this problem , You can set it to the factory setting thats normaly in the middle , wait 24 hours for temps to equalize and check temp in freezer with an accurate thermometer it should be -10 to +10 deg. Far. to adjust temp move dial up or down only one digit at a time and wait 24 hours on each adjustment until its at a correct temp.
Is my fridge energy star rated?
ALL ENERGY STAR APPLIANCES HAVE A "ENERGY-STAR LABEL" USUALLY LOCATED ON OR NEAR THE MODEL AND SER. NUMBER TAG OR LABEL. CHECK ON THE BACK OR INSIDE THE REFRIGERATOR WHERE THE COLD CONTROLS ARE LOCATED.
I can't get my ice maker water filter to turn and lock in place
Put some Vaseline on the O-Ring to help it slide into place. Make sure it is properly inserted at the beginning.
If the filter is located inside the refrigerator:
- Turn off the ice maker.
- Push the eject button.
- Pull the filter out of the housing.
- Push the new filter into the housing until it clicks.
- Turn on the ice maker.
- Run 2 gallons of water through the water dispenser to purge air and residue.

My Kenmore Trio refrigerator (#596.76502500)
The fan that blows cold air from the freezer to cool the refrigerator is not working. If your a little handy with tools its an easy fix. Its located in the freezer. Open your freezer door take off the steel panel at the back of the inside of the freezer. After you remove the panel you will see the fan the blows the cold air up to the Frig. A quick trip to a local appliance store for a new fan with do the trick. Put in the new fan 100% fixed even better than new because the orginal part is defective Kenmore should have recalled them. I have the same frig and its been perfect since I repaced my failed fan.
