Parts for Kenmore 253.44733110 (25344733110, 253 44733110): System Parts

Freezer running constantly or not cooling properly? The condenser coil dissipates heat from the refrigerant system. Moderately difficult repair.

Aluminum strap secures the defrost heater against the evaporator coil. Replace if broken, cracked, or missing to maintain proper heater contact.

Includes service line.

Fixes ice buildup on evaporator coils and restores proper airflow. This defrost heater melts frost during the defrost cycle to maintain cooling performance.

Freezer won't stay cold or runs too cold? A faulty heat exchanger disrupts refrigerant flow. Requires professional brazing and refrigerant recharge.

Freezer not cooling or running constantly? The evaporator may have failed. Professional installation recommended due to refrigerant system work.

The EVAPORATOR INSULATOR is an OEM part for Frigidaire refrigerators. It is a heat-resistant insulating pad or wrap that surrounds the evaporator coils. The insulator works to retain cool air and prevent warmer air from entering the refrigerated compartment.  

Causes of a bad insulator can include deterioration or breakdown of insulating properties over time due to aging materials. Cracks, holes, or compressed sections of the insulator result in reduced insulation performance.

Symptoms of a bad evaporator insulator include:

• Inconsistently cool or warmer fridge temperatures 
• Frost or ice buildup on evaporator coils or surrounding areas
• Higher than normal electric bills from inefficient cooling
• Warm or cold spots inside refrigerator shelves and compartments

This OEM Frigidaire replacement insulator is compatible with some Kitchenaid, Electrolux, Gibson, Kelvinator, and Kenmore side-by-side refrigerator models. 

This evaporator insulator provides thermal protection around the freezer's evaporator coils, helping maintain proper temperatures and preventing ice buildup in unwanted areas. It ensures efficient cooling operation while protecting the surrounding cabinet from condensation damage. Replace this part if you notice excessive frost buildup, temperature fluctuations, or moisture accumulation around the evaporator area.

The Defrost Timer is an OEM replacement part for Frigidaire upright freezers. It serves as a crucial component responsible for regulating automatic defrost cycles.

Causes of a faulty defrost timer relate to 20,000+ hours of constant exposure to freezer temperatures as low as -10 degrees Fahrenheit. Such extremes can compromise electrical switching mechanisms over prolonged usage periods.

Symptoms of a failed defrost timer include:

• Inability to initiate automatic defrost modes  
• Excessive ice and frost accumulation inside cabinet
• Warm areas detected due to impaired fan circulation
• Diagnostic codes indicating defrosting problems

This genuine Frigidaire replacement part is compatible with Kelvinator and some Kenmore units as well.

Freezer not cooling or running constantly? This compressor kit restores proper cooling. Professional installation required by EPA-certified technician.

This electronic controller is the central board that governs your unit's cooling system. It processes temperature inputs and controls key components so the freezer maintains set temperature when the original board fails.

• Regulates temperature by processing sensor/thermostat inputs and issuing commands to cooling components
• Directs compressor and fan operation to maintain the setpoint
• On applicable models, manages defrost timing and cycles
• Common failure symptoms include no cooling or intermittent cooling, unit won't start, runs constantly, unresponsive controls, or erratic temperatures

• Disconnect power before service; observe ESD precautions and handle the board by its edges
• Photograph/label wire connections; transfer any mounting clips/brackets from the original board
• Seat all connectors fully without forcing; avoid touching component pins
• Restore power and allow time for temperatures to stabilize; verify normal operation

Collects defrost water from the evaporator and channels it to the drain system. Replace if cracked, broken, or missing to prevent leaks inside the cabinet.

Replacement mounting clip for freezers and refrigerators. Secures interior panels and trim to prevent rattling. Replaces broken or missing clips.

The Run Capacitor is an OEM part for Frigidaire refrigerators. It helps maintain a consistent electrical current to the compressor, ensuring efficient operation and optimal cooling performance.

Causes of a bad run capacitor can include electrical surges, prolonged use leading to wear and tear, or physical damage. A failing capacitor can lead to the compressor running inefficiently or not at all, affecting the refrigerator's ability to maintain the desired temperature.

Symptoms of a bad run capacitor include:

• The refrigerator not cooling properly
• The compressor not starting or running inconsistently
• Clicking sounds coming from the refrigerator
• The refrigerator cycling on and off frequently

This OEM replacement is also compatible with Electrolux, Gibson, Kelvinator, and Kenmore models.

Refrigerator not cooling or running constantly? A failed condenser fan motor prevents heat dissipation. DIY repair typically takes 30-45 minutes.

Refrigerator not cooling properly? A damaged condenser fan blade prevents airflow over the condenser coils. Quick DIY fix—simply push into place.

Replacement screw that secures brackets, shelves, trim, panels, and covers inside your appliance. Install when the original is missing, stripped, or corroded.

This replacement power cord delivers household electricity from the outlet to your appliance. Installing a new cord restores safe, reliable power when the original is damaged, worn, or causing intermittent operation.

• Supplies AC power from a household outlet to the unit
• Common fix for no power, flickering lights, or power loss when the cord is moved
• Replaces cords with cuts, cracks, burn marks, or melted areas
• Restores a secure electrical connection for safe, consistent operation

• Unplug the appliance and verify the wall outlet is working before replacing parts
• Access the cord routing and internal connections; note wire positions and routing before removal
• Transfer and secure any strain relief/clamp; keep wiring clear of sharp edges and hot surfaces
• After installation, ensure the cord isn't pinched and the plug seats fully in the outlet

This removable panel provides service access to the compressor and related components at the back or bottom of the refrigerator. Replace if the cover is damaged, missing, or doesn't secure properly, which can affect air circulation and safety.

Small mounting bracket that holds shelves or baskets inside your freezer. Replace if cracked, broken, or missing to restore secure, level positioning.

Black rubber mounting grommet that secures tubes and wires in your refrigerator. Replace if cracked, worn, or missing to properly hold components in place.

Interior divider for freestanding freezers. Separates compartments and organizes frozen items. Replace if cracked, broken, or missing to restore storage.

Interior divider for upright freezers. Separates compartments and organizes frozen items. Replace if cracked, broken, or missing to restore organization.

Mounting screw for freezers and refrigerators. Secures internal components, panels, or shelving. Replace if stripped, missing, or damaged during repairs.

Suction line plug seals the refrigerant line connection in your freezer's compressor system. Replace if cracked, damaged, or missing to maintain proper seal.

This #8-32 x 3/8 screw secures appliance panels, brackets, and assemblies. Replace a missing or stripped fastener to keep parts tight and aligned, reduce vibration, and restore proper fit in compatible refrigerators and freezers.
