Kenmore Refrigerator 253.78979802 (25378979802, 253 78979802) Parts

This foam insulation block helps fill gaps and reduce heat transfer inside the refrigerator cabinet to maintain proper cooling and reduce frost/condensation. It restores the designed insulation barrier where the original piece is damaged or missing. What it does:

• Replaces a damaged or missing foam block that seals internal gaps in the cabinet or behind panels
• Helps prevent warm air infiltration that can cause poor cooling or excess frost
• Reduces condensation and moisture buildup around the evaporator area or panel seams
• Supports consistent temperature performance by restoring insulation continuity

• One foam insulation block

• Disconnect power to the appliance before beginning any repair
• Access location may require removing interior panels or shelves; handle panels and clips carefully
• Install in the exact position and orientation of the original part; use any existing adhesive or fasteners as required
• If adhesive is needed, use only appliance-safe adhesives compatible with foam and follow manufacturer guidance

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

A small replacement mounting clip that secures interior trim and panels to restore proper fit and reduce rattling. Use when a broken or missing clip leaves gaps or lets panels or trim sit loose on the appliance. What it does:

• Secures trim, access panels or small plastic covers to the appliance frame
• Restores proper alignment and helps eliminate panel vibration or rattling
• Replaces cracked, worn or missing clips that allow gaps or loose parts
• Works as a simple fastener where the original clip has failed

• Always disconnect power to the appliance before beginning any repair
• Clip typically installs with a push-fit or snap-in motion; a flat tool may help remove the old clip
• Handle surrounding trim gently to avoid cracking brittle plastic
• Verify correct clip orientation before snapping into place
