Kenmore Refrigerator 363.9738717 (3639738717, 363 9738717) Parts

This refrigerator water line is the plastic tubing that routes pressurized water through the appliance's water system. Replacing a cracked, brittle, or kinked line helps restore proper water flow and prevents leaks inside or around the unit.

• Carries water between the inlet valve and the refrigerator's water system components
• Helps maintain a sealed path for reliable flow to the dispenser and/or ice maker
• Replace if tubing is cracked, kinked, brittle, or leaking
• Common symptoms include puddling, dripping, reduced/No water at the dispenser, or ice maker not filling

• Disconnect power and shut off the water supply before servicing
• Note the original routing and clip locations; avoid sharp bends and kinks during installation
• Fully seat tubing into existing connectors/fittings on your model
• Turn water back on, check all connections for leaks, and purge air by dispensing water

This defrost heater kit warms the evaporator during the automatic defrost cycle to melt frost and keep air moving. Replace it when ice builds up on the freezer coils and temperatures rise or airflow is restricted.

• Heats the evaporator coil during defrost to clear accumulated frost/ice
• Helps maintain proper airflow and stable temperatures in both compartments
• Symptoms can include heavy frost on the back wall/evaporator cover, reduced cooling, or fan noise from ice contact
• A failed heater can leave the defrost system unable to clear ice, restricting airflow

• Disconnect power to the refrigerator before servicing
• Access the heater behind the freezer's rear panel; safely remove heavy ice before replacement
• Move wires and clips one at a time, routing exactly like the original to avoid pinched or exposed conductors
• After replacement, monitor defrost operation; icing persists, also check the defrost thermostat and control

Please note: You may also need to order an adapter. For the adapter to convert the male connector from rectangular to oval use part number WR29X10049. Water valve in kit is part# WR57X10033.

This reversible door plug fills the unused mounting hole when you switch the door swing on your refrigerator. It restores a finished appearance and helps keep air and moisture from entering through the opening.

• Covers the unused door hole created during a door swing reversal
• Helps maintain proper sealing and resists drafts/condensation at the opening
• Restores a clean, finished, factory look to the door
• Common symptoms: missing or cracked plug, exposed hole, cosmetic gap on door edge

• Disconnect power before servicing any door components
• Gently pry out the old plug with a plastic trim tool to avoid scratches
• Align the new plug with the opening and press until fully seated and flush
• Verify the door closes properly and the gasket seals evenly

Nut for 1/4 inch tubing.

This evaporator fan blade mounts on the freezer fan motor and circulates air across the evaporator coils. Replacing a cracked or warped blade restores proper airflow for even cooling and more consistent temperatures throughout the refrigerator.

• Moves chilled air from the evaporator through the ducts to both compartments
• Helps maintain uniform temperatures and overall cooling performance
• Common symptoms of a faulty blade: weak airflow, poor cooling or warm spots, rattling/scraping noises from the freezer, longer run times
• Visual signs include a cracked hub, loose fit on the shaft, or broken/missing vanes

• Disconnect power before servicing
• Remove freezer shelves/ice bin and the rear panel to access the fan assembly
• Pull the old blade straight off the motor shaft; align the hub and press the new blade on until fully seated
• Verify blade orientation and free rotation inside the shroud before reassembly

This cable clamp secures refrigerator wiring to the cabinet, keeping harnesses organized and protected. Replacing a missing or damaged clamp helps prevent chafing and vibration noise while maintaining proper clearance from fans and other moving components.

• Anchors wire harnesses in their designed routing
• Helps prevent insulation wear from rubbing or vibration
• Keeps wires clear of sharp edges and moving parts
• Common signs it's needed: missing/broken clamp, loose or dangling wires, or new rattling/buzzing noises

• Disconnect power before servicing
• Access the clamp location and note original wire routing
• Position the clamp and secure with the existing fastener; do not overtighten
• Ensure wires aren't pinched and have clearance from the fan/compressor before restoring power

This vinyl sleeve fits over a rod, tube, or wire in the refrigerator to protect and cushion contact points. It reduces wear and vibration and helps keep components aligned for smooth, reliable operation.

• Provides a protective barrier at contact points to prevent abrasion or marring
• Helps maintain spacing and alignment for a snug, proper fit
• Cushions to damp vibration and reduce rattles or squeaks
• Replace if the sleeve is missing, cracked, hardened, or if components feel loose or make noise

• Disconnect power; turn off the water supply if working near water lines
• Note the sleeve's original location and orientation; take a photo for reference
• Remove the old sleeve and any debris; slide the new sleeve into the same position
• Check clearance and resecure related parts before restoring power

Size: 10-16 ab.

This defrost thermostat monitors the evaporator coil temperature and controls power to the defrost heater. Replacing a failed thermostat restores proper defrosting, reduces frost buildup, and helps keep fresh food and freezer compartments cooling as designed.

• Senses evaporator temperature to open/close the defrost heater circuit at the correct point in the cycle
• Protects against overheating during defrost by interrupting power when the set temperature is reached
• Helps prevent heavy frost/ice accumulation on the evaporator and loss of airflow
• Common signs it may be bad: ice behind the freezer rear panel, warm refrigerator section, unit never defrosts or refreezes soon after a manual defrost

• Disconnect power before servicing; wear cut-resistant gloves
• Remove the freezer's rear panel to access the evaporator; the thermostat is typically clamped to an evaporator tube
• Match wire positions and mount the new thermostat in the same location with firm contact to the tubing
• Route wires away from the fan and sharp edges; reassemble and verify normal defrost operation

Includes 12 screws. Size: 8-18 ab.

8-18 CA HX 1/2 S

This small hardware clamp is used on select refrigerators to secure tubing or wiring to the cabinet or frame. Replaces a missing or damaged clamp to keep lines stable, reduce vibration, and help prevent rubbing or leaks.

• Secures small water tubing or electrical harnesses along the cabinet/frame
• Helps prevent vibration, rattling, and abrasion of lines
• Maintains correct routing to keep lines clear of moving or hot components
• Common clues: loose or noisy lines, chafing marks, or moisture near tubing connections

• Unplug the appliance and shut off the water supply before servicing
• Note the original location and routing; take a photo for reference
• Reuse the existing mounting screw/fastener if required; tighten only enough to hold without crushing tubing
• Restore power and water, then run and inspect for vibration and leaks

Size: 8-32 t. Includes 12 screws.

Replacement screw that secures panels, trim and internal brackets to keep appliance components stable and rattle-free. Use when originals are missing, stripped, or broken to restore proper fit and safe operation. What it does:

• Secures panels, control housings, trim and small brackets so parts stay aligned and stable.
• Replaces missing or damaged fasteners that cause rattling, vibration, or loose assemblies.
• Keeps electrical and mechanical components properly positioned for reliable operation.
• Intended as a direct replacement where the OEM screw specified for the application is required.

• Disconnect power and unplug the appliance before starting any repair.
• Use the correct screwdriver or bit and seat the screw squarely to avoid stripping the head or threads.
• Do not overtighten—stop when snug to prevent damage to panels or plastic components.
• Keep removed screws organized; replace only with the identical OEM screw for proper fit.
