If your refrigerator temperature is closer to 35 degrees, try turning the temperature up slightly. This is a common problem that often doesn't have a clear, permanent solution. The first thing to check is the overall internal refrigerator temperature. The proper temperature should be between 35 and 42 degrees. Here are some things to try: If you find that the temperature varies a lot from the top shelf to the bottom (where it is coldest), try putting produce and other sensitive products on a higher shelf. If the temperature is too low and you can't make it warmer by adjusting the thermostat, you probably have a defective thermostat. If so, you need to replace it, because they cannot be repaired. Other possible problems are a leak in the sealed (refrigerant) system, cold air migration (in side-by-side models) or a defective air damper.

How many cubic feet does Kenmore refrigerator model 1317301WW have?

You model appears to be difficult to find. The Elite is 24.1. I also read it is based on the 3rd and 4th digit on the model number, which would mean yours is 17 cu. ft. You can always do a rough measurement, depth x width x height in feet and rough tenths of a foot.

What is the cubic feet of Kenmore refrigerator 253.77872509?

The fourth digit after the prefix usually indicates the refrigerator capacity. It probably has 27 cu. ft. capacity. (If it is a small apartment size fridge would be a 17 cu. ft. model.)

I hope this helps.

Refrigerator and freezer is freezing everything

Its either a bad defrost timer not kicking on, bad main control board or the temp switch. Sorry not much help but the only way to really tell is check with a ohlm meteor and eliminate each part.

Refigirator is freezing my liquids on top shelf only

If its anything like a GE refrigerator, there is a flapper valve between the freezer and refrigerator that controls the temp of the refrigerator compartment. There should be a plastic shroud at the top refrigerator compartment against the freezer wall. Remove it and see if the flapper is broken. Usually you can epoxy the flapper or if not, buy a new part.
Keep in mind my experience is with a GE, but I think its pretty much the same machine.
