Kenmore Refrigerator 253.73014302 (25373014302, 253 73014302) Parts

This control box wiring harness routes power and signals between the appliance control board and other components to restore reliable control operation and electrical connectivity. It helps resolve intermittent controls and lost function caused by damaged wiring. What it does:

• Connects the control board to switches, sensors and motors to enable normal control functions.
• Replaces damaged or frayed wiring that can cause intermittent operation or unresponsive controls.
• Addresses symptoms such as control panel not responding, random shutdowns, or error codes tied to wiring faults.
• Restores proper signal and power routing when connector damage or wire breaks interrupt circuits.

• Disconnect all power to the appliance before beginning any service.
• Compare the new harness to the original and follow factory connector positions and routing to avoid pin miswiring or chafing.
• Handle connectors gently and ensure all terminals fully seat; inspect mating connectors for damage before reconnecting.

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

This replacement rear compressor base roller supports the refrigerator compressor on the cabinet rear base, helping keep the compressor properly seated and reducing wear from vibration and movement. What it does

• Provides a rolling support under the compressor to keep it aligned and off the cabinet floor
• Helps reduce vibration and rattling that can occur from a loose or worn compressor mount
• Prevents compressor body from dragging or scraping the cabinet base
• Commonly replaced when the roller is cracked, worn flat, missing, or causing noise

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any work
• Support or secure the compressor and cabinet before removing the old roller to avoid sudden movement
• Basic hand tools usually required; inspect mounting hardware and replace any damaged fasteners
• Do not attempt sealed-system repairs.

This rubber compressor mounting grommet cushions and isolates the compressor to reduce vibration and noise that can transfer to the cabinet. It helps maintain stable compressor positioning for quieter, smoother operation. What it does:

• Absorbs compressor vibration to lower noise and rattling
• Dampens movement that can cause abrasion or wear on mounting hardware
• Helps maintain proper alignment of the compressor assembly
• Common symptom: excessive buzzing, vibration, or rattling from the back of the appliance

• Always disconnect power to the appliance before servicing.
• Support the compressor before removing mounts to prevent shifting or damage.
• Inspect surrounding mounts and hardware; replace any worn or damaged pieces.

This control box houses and protects the appliance's electronic controls and wiring, restoring a secure mounting point for the console and control modules. Replacing a damaged control box helps resolve loose or exposed electronics and supports reliable button and display operation. What it does:

• Provides a secure enclosure for the control board and wiring harness
• Protects electronics from damage, debris, and shorting
• Restores proper mounting and alignment of the control console
• Can stop symptoms like loose or intermittently working buttons, exposed wiring, or a rattling console

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any work
• Replacement typically requires removing the control console or outer panel to access mounting screws and harness connections
• Handle electronics and connectors carefully; avoid forcing or bending housing tabs

Color: Black. Rubber. Holds tube/wire

This condenser tube spacer positions and secures the refrigerator's condenser tubing to maintain proper tube spacing and airflow. Replacing a worn or broken spacer helps reduce vibration, rattling, and rubbing that can damage tubing over time. What it does:

• Holds condenser tubing in the correct position to preserve airflow and cooling efficiency
• Cushions tubing to limit vibration and reduce rattling noises
• Prevents tubing from rubbing against the cabinet or other components, lowering wear risk
• Helps reduce the chance of tubing fatigue that can lead to damage

• Disconnect power to the appliance before accessing rear panels or condenser components.
• Handle condenser tubing gently; avoid kinking, bending, or putting stress on lines during installation.
• Installation may require removing the back or lower access panel to reach the condenser assembly.

This genuine replacement screw secures panels and small components on select appliances, restoring fit and reducing rattles or loose parts. It's a direct-fit fastener where the original #8-18 x 3/8 screw is missing or worn. What it does:

• Fastens trim, panels or brackets to appliance frames and components
• Restores secure fit to stop rattling or misaligned parts
• Replaces stripped, rusted or missing screws that prevent proper assembly
• Matches original thread size and length for correct engagement

• Use the correct driver and engage threads straight to avoid stripping
• Do not overtighten; stop when the part is snug and secure
• Replace any damaged mating hardware for best fit
• Unplug the appliance or shut off power when accessing internal fasteners

This genuine replacement part is an evaporator used in refrigerators. The evaporator is the part that exchanges heat to cool the refrigerator. It is the component of the refrigerator that absorbs the heat from the air inside, turning it cool through absorption. If the refrigerator is no longer cooling properly, this could mean it's time for a new evaporator.This is a genuine replacement evaporator compatible with Frigidaire, Electrolux, Gibson, Kelvinator, and Westinghouse brand refrigerators.

This compressor start relay helps the refrigerator compressor start reliably so the appliance can maintain proper cooling. It replaces a failing start device to restore normal compressor startup behavior. What it does:

• Provides the initial boost to the compressor motor so it can start turning
• Commonly used when the compressor hums or won't start but power is present
• Can reduce repeated clicking or intermittent starts caused by a failed start device
• Works with the compressor's start circuit; does not replace sealed-system components

• One compressor start relay

• Disconnect power to the appliance before accessing electrical components
• Inspect associated start capacitor/overload if present; replace if faulty for reliable operation

This temperature control thermostat regulates refrigerator cooling by cycling the compressor and fans to maintain set temperatures. Replaces a faulty thermostat to restore proper temperature control and more consistent cooling. What it does

• Senses cabinet temperature and closes or opens the electrical circuit to run the compressor and cooling system
• Helps maintain steady temperatures so food stays properly chilled or frozen
• Commonly replaces a thermostat that causes the unit to run constantly, not run at all, or fail to reach set temperatures
• Works with the fridge's control assembly to respond to user temperature adjustments

• One temperature control thermostat

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair
• Locate the thermostat behind the control knob or panel; refer to your model's service manual for exact access
• Handle the capillary tube and sensor bulb carefully to avoid kinks or damage
