Kenmore Refrigerator 253.74522406 (25374522406, 253 74522406) Parts

This is a replacement mounting screw used to secure the defrost timer assembly to the refrigerator control housing, restoring proper fastening and preventing the timer from shifting or vibrating during operation. What it does:

• Secures the defrost timer to the control housing so the timer stays in position.
• Prevents vibration or movement that can cause intermittent contact or noisy operation.
• Helps maintain reliable defrost cycle timing by keeping the timer properly aligned.
• Addresses symptoms such as a loose or missing fastener, rattling behind the control panel, or a timer that shifts when the door is opened.

• Unplug the appliance before starting work to prevent electrical shock.
• Access the control housing or timer bracket per your model's service instructions.
• Use the correct screwdriver or driver bit; do not overtighten—stop when snug to avoid stripping.
• Retain removed hardware for reference and compare screw length/threads before installing.

This refrigerator outer door replaces a damaged or dented door to restore the appliance's appearance, seal and proper closing. It's the exterior panel you see and use to access the fresh-food compartment. What it does:

• Replaces a bent, dented or cosmetically damaged outer refrigerator door
• Restores proper door fit and helps the gasket seal to maintain internal temperature
• Improves appliance appearance by replacing scratched or discolored exterior panels
• Allows hinges, handles and trim to be reattached for normal operation

• Disconnect power and remove all food and loose shelves from the door before starting
• Refrigerator doors are heavy and awkward — have a helper to support the door while removing or installing
• Keep original fasteners and trim for reuse unless replacement hardware is specified
• If door alignment issues persist after installation, hinge adjustment may be required
