Kenmore Refrigerator 253.44512601 (25344512601, 253 44512601) Parts

A replacement sliding basket that restores smooth, stable drawer movement in refrigerator or freezer compartments so stored items slide out easily for access. Replaces a worn or damaged basket assembly to keep storage organized. What it does:

• Provides a rolling/sliding drawer surface so you can pull stored items out without tipping or spilling
• Restores proper track engagement when original basket binds, jams, or comes off the rails
• Helps stop excessive wobble, scraping, or uneven travel caused by worn parts
• Supports normal item storage and retrieval without altering fridge function

• High-level replacement: remove contents and existing basket, align onto tracks, and slide into place until it clicks/locks
• Use basic hand tools only; do not force parts—inspect tracks and rollers for damage before installing
• Disconnect power only if service requires working near electrical components; otherwise power-down not typically required for interior basket swaps
• If any mounting hardware or clips are missing/damaged, replace them to ensure secure operation

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.

The Can Rack is an OEM part for Frigidaire refrigerators. It provides shelving located internally for organized storage of canned drinks. The can rack creates additional capacity within the refrigerator compartment above other sliding shelves and drawers.

Causes of a bad can rack can include being damaged from accidental impacts if heavy items are dropped onto it from above over time.

Symptoms of a bad can rack include:

• Bent or misshapen wires that no longer securely hold cans
• Broken off sections that reduce usable shelf space
• Loose assembly unable to be positioned properly on refrigerator walls

This OEM Frigidaire part is also compatible with Electrolux, Gibson, Kelvinator and some Kenmore models. 

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 water inlet tube supplies water from the refrigerator's supply to the dispenser and ice maker, restoring proper flow and preventing routing issues. It's a direct-fit replacement that helps stop leaks and restore water delivery. What it does:

• Directs water from the house supply to the refrigerator's internal water system.
• Restores water flow to the dispenser and ice maker when a damaged tube is blocking supply.
• Prevents leaks and water pooling caused by cracked, pinched, or corroded inlet tubing.
• Works with other inlet fittings and valves to maintain proper water routing.

• Shut off the refrigerator power and water supply before starting any work.
• Remove access panels as needed and relieve any residual water pressure in the line.
• Use proper tubing connectors and tighten fittings to manufacturer torque—inspect for leaks after restoring water.
• If you find additional damaged fittings or clamps, replace them to ensure a leak-free install.
