Kenmore Refrigerator 253.51399106 (25351399106, 253 51399106) Parts

A small push-fit plastic retainer used to secure interior trim, panels, or lightweight components. Keeps parts held in place without screws for a clean finish and quick replacement. What it does

• Acts as a push-in fastener to hold trim pieces, liners, or lightweight panels.
• Replaces worn, broken, or missing pins that allow interior parts to shift or rattle.
• Helps stop loose trim, sagging panels, or gaps that can collect dirt or cause noise.
• Simple, non-threaded design for a secure press-fit connection.

• Press firmly into the matching hole until fully seated; do not force beyond resistance.
• Inspect mating hole for damage or debris before installing to ensure a proper fit.
• Use basic hand tools (needle-nose pliers) only if needed to remove the old pin; avoid prying against fragile trim.
• If the original hole is stretched or cracked, replace the mating trim or panel to regain proper retention.

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 power control board is the refrigerator's main electronic control that manages power distribution and system functions so the appliance runs reliably and responds to user settings. What it does:

• Supplies and regulates power to compressor, fans, lights and other subsystems
• Processes input from the user interface and sensors to control cooling cycles
• Helps protect against erratic operation by coordinating start/stop functions
• Common symptom fixes: unit won't power on, intermittent operation, lights or fans not running, or failure to start cooling

• Disconnect all power to the appliance before starting work
• Handle the board by its edges and avoid static discharge; wear an anti-static wrist strap if available
• Verify connector alignment and seating; do not force pins or connectors

This ice ejector is the plastic arm that pushes cubes out of the ice maker mold and into the ice bin, restoring proper ice ejection and dispenser function. It's a direct-replacement component for affected ice maker assemblies. What it does:

• Physically strips and pushes formed ice cubes from the mold into the bin or dispenser
• Helps restore normal ice dispensing when cubes remain stuck in the mold
• Works with the ice maker's motor/gear train to time ejection during the harvest cycle
• Commonly replaced when the ejector is broken, cracked, or worn and no longer contacts cubes

• One ice ejector (ejector arm)

• Disconnect power to the refrigerator before starting any repairs
• Remove the ice maker/cover or access panel as required to reach the ejector
• Inspect related components (drive gear, motor, and mounting pins) for wear while replacing the ejector
• After installation, run a test harvest/dispense cycle to correct operation
