Kenmore Refrigerator 253.44353404 (25344353404, 253 44353404) Parts

This spring solenoid is the actuator spring assembly that helps move and return a solenoid-driven mechanism, restoring reliable part movement and engagement in affected appliance systems. What it does:

• Provides return tension and controlled movement for a solenoid actuator
• Helps the solenoid plunger snap back after activation so linked components reset
• Commonly replaced when the actuator fails to move, sticks, or does not fully return
• Corrects symptoms such as intermittent engagement, sticking, or loss of actuator motion

• Disconnect power to the appliance before attempting service to avoid shock or injury
• Handle small components carefully; keep track of retaining clips, pins, or fasteners
• Replace with the exact part number to ensure fit and function
• Refer to OEM instructions for step-by-step removal and reassembly

This ice auger drives and feeds ice from the ice maker/bin toward the dispenser so your refrigerator can deliver ice reliably. It replaces a worn or damaged auger to restore proper ice movement and help prevent jams. What it does:

• Rotates inside the ice bin or dispenser housing to move ice toward the outlet.
• Works with the auger motor and drive components to enable ice dispensing.
• Common symptom: ice dispenser motor runs but little or no ice is delivered.
• Common symptom: ice jams or broken fins on the auger that prevent smooth feeding.

• Disconnect power to the refrigerator before beginning any work.
• Remove ice bin and any surrounding trim to access the auger; follow your model's service instructions.
• Inspect mating gears and the auger motor for wear; replace damaged components as needed.
• Reassemble carefully, restoring power and testing the dispenser with small amounts of ice.

This stainless steel cleaner restores and protects stainless surfaces, removing fingerprints, smudges and light soils to improve appearance and make routine cleaning easier. Safe for finished stainless when used as directed. What it does:

• Cleans away fingerprints, grease, and light residue from stainless surfaces
• Restores a streak-free shine and improves overall appearance
• Helps reduce visible smudges for easier routine maintenance
• Leaves a light protective finish that helps resist fingerprints between applications

• Read and follow the product label before use; test on an inconspicuous area first
• Apply to a soft cloth and wipe with the grain of the stainless; avoid abrasive pads
• Do not use on hot surfaces, painted finishes, or unsealed metals unless manufacturer approves
• Keep out of reach of children and avoid contact with eyes; if contact occurs, rinse thoroughly

This switch kit is an electrical switch assembly used to restore reliable control of affected appliance functions. It replaces a worn or failed switch so the unit responds correctly to user inputs and power commands. What it does:

• Replaces a faulty or unresponsive control switch that can prevent operation or cause intermittent power/command issues
• Restores proper opening/closing or on/off signaling for the associated control circuit
• Helps eliminate symptoms like no response to button presses, intermittent operation, or a stuck switch
• Matches OEM fit and mounting points for a direct replacement when the original switch has failed

• One switch kit assembly

• Turn off and unplug the appliance or disconnect power at the breaker before beginning work
• Follow the appliance manufacturer's disassembly steps to access the switch; avoid damaging nearby wiring or components
• Verify electrical connections are secure and oriented as original; test function before fully reassembling
