Kenmore Refrigerator 253.44493704 (25344493704, 253 44493704) Parts

This shroud assembly is the molded housing that directs airflow and protects internal components. It restores proper airflow routing for efficient operation and helps reduce noise and debris entry around the blower area. What it does:

• Directs and channels airflow from the blower to the vent or drum, improving performance.
• Protects the blower motor and wiring from lint, debris, and incidental contact.
• Helps reduce blower noise by enclosing and stabilizing the blower area.
• Worn, cracked, or damaged shrouds can contribute to reduced airflow, unusual noise, or visible gaps near the blower.

• One shroud assembly

• Disconnect power (and gas if applicable) before beginning work.
• Remove outer panels or access covers to reach the blower housing.
• Support the blower/motor assembly during removal and align mounting tabs carefully; avoid forcing fasteners.

This interior light shield protects and diffuses the refrigerator light, helping produce even illumination while covering the bulb. It restores a finished look and prevents direct contact with the lamp for safer operation. What it does:

• Covers the interior light to diffuse and soften illumination for better visibility
• Protects the bulb from accidental impact and food contact
• Helps prevent direct glare from the lamp
• Replaces cracked, yellowed, missing, or loose light covers that reduce light output

• Disconnect power before servicing the appliance to avoid shock
• Handle the plastic shield carefully to avoid cracking during removal/installation
• Usually snaps or screws into place; align tabs with housing and press gently

This molded water reservoir stores and directs water for the refrigerator's dispenser and ice system, restoring normal water flow and reducing leaks when the original tank is cracked or damaged. Fits specific Frigidaire refrigerator configurations. What it does:

• Holds and routes water from the household supply to the dispenser and ice maker
• Replaces a cracked, warped, or leaking reservoir that causes pooling or loss of water flow
• Restores proper water pressure to downstream valves and components when the tank is compromised
• Helps prevent contaminants from entering the dispenser system when installed intact

• One water tank (reservoir) as shown

• Disconnect power and shut off the water supply before starting work
• Drain any remaining water from lines and the old tank to avoid spills
• Handle the tank carefully to avoid damaging fittings; replace any worn gaskets or clips as needed

This mechanical refrigerator thermostat regulates interior temperature, letting the compressor cycle on and off to maintain your set cooling level. It's a direct replacement for worn or unresponsive temperature controls to restore consistent cooling. What it does:

• Senses cabinet temperature and signals the compressor to run or stop to maintain setpoint
• Replaces a thermostat that won't hold temperature, causes continuous running, or prevents cooling
• Works with manual temperature-control knobs (mechanical sensing and switching)
• Typical failure symptoms: refrigerator too warm, too cold, or compressor that runs constantly or not at all

• Disconnect power before attempting any service to avoid shock or damage
• Access may require removing control panels or shelves; keep track of mounting screws and orientation
• Confirm wiring and terminal placement match the old thermostat before final connection
