Kenmore Refrigerator 253.6072100B (2536072100B, 253 6072100B) Parts

This drain tube insulation cushions and thermally protects the refrigerator's defrost drain tube to help prevent condensation and ice buildup. It keeps the drain line insulated so water flows freely to the drip pan and reduces drip/ice-related issues. What it does:

• Wraps around the defrost drain tube to limit heat transfer and condensation.
• Helps prevent drain freeze-ups that can cause water pooling or slow drainage.
• Reduces the chance of water dripping inside the cabinet or onto the floor.
• Supports reliable defrost water routing to the drain pan.

• Always unplug the appliance or disconnect power before servicing.
• Access may require removing the back or inside panel; keep track of fasteners.
• Slide the insulation over the drain tube so it fully covers the exposed section; ensure it sits flat without kinks.
• If corrosion or heavy buildup is present, clean the drain tube before installing new insulation.

This retainer lead wire secures appliance wiring to keep harnesses organized and away from heat or moving parts, reducing wear and accidental disconnection. It's a simple replacement to restore proper wire routing and protection. What it does:

• Clips or holds the wiring harness in place to prevent chafing and strain
• Helps keep wires away from hot surfaces, vents, or moving components
• Reduces risk of intermittent electrical connections caused by loose wiring
• Restores factory routing after service or component replacement

• Disconnect power to the appliance before installing to avoid shock or injury
• Remove any panels necessary to access the original retainer and wiring route
• Replace like-for-like, seating the retainer securely so the harness cannot shift
• If wires show damage or insulation wear, inspect further and replace damaged wiring before reassembly

This replacement nameplate restores the front identification badge and cosmetic finish on the appliance, helping the unit look complete and factory-original again. It's a direct-fit exterior badge used where the original label has worn or fallen off. What it does:

• Serves as the decorative identification badge that mounts to the appliance surface.
• Helps prevent sharp edges or loose fragments from remaining after the old badge is removed.
• Useful when the original nameplate is cracked, scratched, or no longer adheres.

• One replacement nameplate

• High-level, safety-first: always unplug the appliance or disable power at the breaker before starting work near electrical components.
• Remove the old nameplate and any leftover adhesive or debris; clean and dry the mounting surface before installing the new badge.
• Align the new nameplate carefully and press firmly; handle with gloves to avoid fingerprints or cuts from edges.
• If fasteners or adhesive are required, use the OEM-specified method.
