Kenmore Refrigerator 253.51392106 (25351392106, 253 51392106) Parts

Specs: Hex head ,1/4-20 x 5/8

This drive cam is the rotating plastic cam used in the refrigerator's ice system. It transfers the motor's motion to linked parts to advance the cycle so ice can be produced and dispensed smoothly.

• Transfers rotation from the motor to move internal levers/gears in the ice assembly
• Advances the ice-making/dispensing cycle
• Wear or cracks can cause stalling, clicking/grinding, or no/weak ice dispensing
• May lead to ice not ejecting or jamming mid-cycle

• Disconnect power and shut off water before servicing
• Remove the ice bin; access the ice maker or dispenser mechanism as your model requires
• Note the cam's orientation and alignment marks; seat the new cam fully on the shaft
• Reassemble, restore power, and run a test cycle to confirm operation

This replacement ice container front is the front cover for the freezer's ice bucket. It restores a secure front wall so cubes stay contained and the bucket seats and dispenses correctly. What it does:

• Forms the front face of the ice container to keep ice contained
• Helps the bucket fit and align for proper dispensing
• Replaces a cracked, broken, loose, or missing front panel
• May help if ice spills from the bin or the bucket won't slide in or latch properly

• 1 ice container front (front cover only)

• Unplug the refrigerator and remove the ice bucket from the freezer
• Empty the bucket; transfer any screws, clips, or labels from the old front to the new part
• Align tabs and snap/fasten the new front to the bucket; do not overtighten screws
• Reinstall the bucket and check seating and dispenser operation

This is not a filter. Use this bypasss if don't want to use the PureSource 2 Water Filter WF2CB or the Pure Advantage Water Filter EWF2CBPA.

This ice container deflector attaches to the ice bucket assembly and guides cubes toward the dispenser chute. Replacing a cracked or missing deflector restores proper ice flow and helps keep ice from spilling inside the freezer during dispensing.

• Directs ice from the bucket into the dispenser chute/crusher path
• Helps maintain consistent dispensing and minimizes stray ice inside the freezer
• Replace if cracked, warped, or missing
• Symptoms include erratic dispensing, ice spilling or jamming, or a visibly damaged/missing guide on the ice bin

• Disconnect power before servicing; remove the ice bucket
• Position the new deflector in the original location; reuse existing screws/clips if applicable
• Ensure the curved face points toward the dispenser chute
• Reinstall the ice bucket, restore power, and test ice dispense

This refrigerator shelf restores a flat, sturdy surface for storing food and containers. Replace a broken or missing shelf to regain capacity, keep items organized, and help prevent spills inside your appliance.

• Provides a level platform to hold groceries and containers
• Helps organize contents and maximize usable space
• Replaces damaged, bent, or missing shelves
• Common symptoms: cracked/broken shelf, wobbling, items tipping, reduced storage capacity

• Empty the area and wear gloves; handle carefully to avoid injury or damage
• Align the shelf with the side supports and slide or lower it into place
• Ensure it's fully seated before loading; distribute weight evenly

This is a factory replacement screw fastener used to secure components in your appliance. It restores a tight, rattle-free fit for panels, brackets, and trim when an original screw is missing, stripped, or corroded.

• Secures panels, brackets, and trim to the appliance cabinet or liner
• Replaces a missing, stripped, or rusty screw
• Helps eliminate looseness, vibration, or rattling components
• Maintains proper alignment and a clean, factory fit

• Unplug the appliance before servicing; if near water lines, shut off the supply
• Match to the original and install in the same location/orientation
• Start threads by hand to avoid cross-threading; do not overtighten, especially into plastic
• Keep and reuse any original washers or spacers if present

This refrigerator bracket and bushing assembly secures a moving component and provides a stable wear/pivot surface for smooth operation. Replace it when the original parts are worn or broken and causing looseness, scraping noises, or poor alignment.

• Provides a mounting point and bearing surface for rotational or sliding movement
• Helps maintain alignment and smooth, quiet operation
• Can help address wobble, scraping/binding, or a component that sags or sits out of position
• Replace if the bracket is bent/cracked or the bushing is worn/missing

• Disconnect power before servicing; turn off water supply if working near dispenser lines
• Support the attached component while removing fasteners; note the original orientation
• Transfer any spacers/clips from the old parts if present and tighten fasteners evenly
• After installation, verify smooth movement and proper alignment

This aluminum strap secures the defrost heater firmly against the evaporator coil to maintain proper contact during defrost. Correct contact improves heat transfer so frost melts evenly and helps prevent recurring ice buildup on the evaporator.

• Secures the defrost heater to the evaporator for proper contact and heat transfer
• Promotes complete, even defrosting across the evaporator coil
• Helps reduce repeat frost/ice accumulation caused by a shifted or loose heater
• Typical clues include a loose heater, uneven frost pattern, or rattling near the evaporator

• Disconnect power and allow ice to melt before accessing the evaporator
• Use care around sharp fins and fragile refrigerant tubing; do not puncture or deform the coil
• Position the heater per your model's parts diagram and tighten the strap for firm, even contact
• Verify wiring is routed clear of the fan and moving parts before reassembly

Inlet valve to icemaker

This fixed blade sits inside the refrigerator's ice bucket/crusher assembly. It provides a stationary cutting edge that works with the auger and rotating blades to break up cubes, helping your dispenser deliver consistent crushed ice.

• Stationary crusher blade that works with the auger and rotating blades to crush ice
• Helps prevent whole cubes from passing through on the "crushed" setting
• Worn, bent, or missing blades can cause poor crushing, jams, or uneven ice size
• May help address symptoms like dispenser jamming, irregular crushed ice, or increased grinding noises

• Unplug the refrigerator before servicing; remove and empty the ice bucket
• Note the order and orientation of blades, spacers, and fasteners; take reference photos
• Handle sharp metal edges; wear cut-resistant gloves
• Reassemble in the original sequence and tighten hardware snugly; ensure the auger turns freely before reinstalling

This small but critical actuator spring restores return tension in a refrigerator's actuator mechanism, helping the lever reset to neutral after use so controls feel responsive and operation stops cleanly. What it does:

• Provides the return force for an actuator or lever so it moves back to its neutral position
• Helps the mechanism engage/disengage a switch cleanly
• Common symptoms of a weak or broken spring: lever sticks, feels loose, or doesn't spring back
• Contribute to intermittent activation or failure to stop when released

• 1 actuator spring

• Disconnect power; if working near the dispenser/water system, shut off the water supply
• Access the actuator mechanism and note the spring's exact orientation (take a photo before removal)
• Use needle-nose pliers to transfer the spring; do not over-stretch or deform it
• Wear cut-resistant gloves and eye protection; test lever return action before reassembly
