Kenmore Refrigerator 253.56974602 (25356974602, 253 56974602) Parts

This micro switch detects door or lid position and tells the appliance when the door is closed so cycles can start or safety interlocks stay engaged. It restores reliable door sensing and helps prevent operation with the door open. What it does:

• Acts as a position sensor that completes or breaks the control circuit when the door/lid is closed or opened
• Keeps the appliance from starting or continuing a cycle if the door is open (safety interlock)
• Common symptom fix: appliance won't start, stops mid-cycle, or shows door-related error codes
• Small electrical switch designed to mount at the door latch or frame and connect to the appliance wiring harness

• Disconnect power (unplug or shut off breaker) before attempting service
• Access may require removing panels, trim, or the door latch assembly; keep track of screws and fasteners
• Observe wiring orientation and connector positions; replace exactly as removed or tag wires

• Commonly used where a timed or motor-driven movement is needed during a cycle
• Symptoms this part can cause: appliance fails to actuate a door, latch, dispenser or similar mechanism when called for
• Replacing a worn or failed actuator restores proper mechanical response to control signals

• One solenoid actuator

• Disconnect power to the appliance before beginning work to avoid shock or unintended actuation
• Remove any panels or trim as needed to access the actuator; note wire and mounting locations for reassembly
• Reconnect wiring and test the function on a short cycle after installation
