SOURCE: Kenmore coffee Maker
I have the Kenmore 00881666000 Mfg Model 238002WH Programmable 12 cup coffee maker. I could not find the filters and when I tried to order them online thru Sears, there was no match. I ended up finding out that you can get Cuisinart charcoal filters at Sears that are the same size and fit perfectly.
SOURCE: stopped working?
All coffee-makers are provided with a thermal fuse located near the heating element and in series with the element itself.
This device is bullet-shaped with one lead connected to the case, the other insulated from it.
If there was no protection of this kind, it could lead to a fire if the heating element fails to get turned off when reaching its design temperature and nearly impossible to buy as replacement parts.
These are not user replaceable and both the thermal fuse and the bimetal switch that controls the current for the heating element have become increasingly less reliable as they are made in China and since we have little alternative, we have to either keep track of our warranty or just throw it away when it fails.
The fuses can fail at any time and I have brought back three coffee-makers in a five day period, all with the same failure, before giving up and getting a refund.
Another type of failure, namely of the bimetal switch occurs over time and reveals itself by the ever-longer brew time that is unaffected by dissolving the lime in the system.
The heat sensitive metal switch part becomes gradually less responsive causing the machine to just cough instead of pump as when new.
The last one I tossed had reached 40+ minutes per pot.

had the same thing happen when my carafe broke. Mine is 238.69328 which is the black coffee maker. The simple solution is to head to Walmart and buy the GE replacement carafe. It's the 12 cup capacity one #169164. The box has 169180 on the bottom and it works like the old one and looks just as good no matter what color your coffee pot is. The cost-about $10.

Water Level Measure of Ground Coffee
100 cups 6 ¼ cups
80 cups 5 cups
60 cups 4 cups
40 cups 2½ cups
Do not make less than 40 or more than 100 cups of coffee at one time. Use electric perk or regular grind coffee; a filter liner is not necessary.
If anyone is looking for the Kenmore Coffee Water Filter model 69768 - Sears / Kmart re-branded the filter under the Cuisinart name making them near impossible to find under the Kenmore name. HERE is the link to order them under the Cuisinart name at SEARS (its the EXACT same filter and they come 2 to a pack)
