Parts for Kenmore 253.77080516 (25377080516, 253 77080516): Unit Parts

This front assembly is the replacement outer panel that restores the appliance's front appearance and supports the door and control area. It helps protect internal components and keeps the front of the unit aligned and secure. What it does:

• Replaces a cracked, dented, or warped front panel to restore fit and finish
• Supports the door/hinge area and nearby controls to maintain proper alignment
• Protects internal components from spills, debris, and impact
• Eliminates rattles or loose front trim caused by broken mounting tabs

• One front assembly

• Disconnect power (and water if applicable) before starting any repair
• Basic disassembly of the outer door/console may be required; follow the OEM service manual
• Keep track of screws and mounting clips; some hardware may need reuse from the old panel
• Handle edges carefully—wear gloves to avoid cuts—and check alignment before tightening fasteners

This replacement refrigerator water filter helps restore clear-tasting drinking water and ice by trapping common particulates and reducing chlorine taste and odor. Designed as a direct-fit cartridge for compatible models. What it does:

• Filters out sediment and common particulates that cause cloudy water
• Helps reduce chlorine taste and odor for better-tasting water and ice
• Supports cleaner ice production by filtering refrigerator water supply
• Restores proper flow and filtration when replacing a worn filter

• Turn off the water supply to the refrigerator before removing the old filter.
• Follow the refrigerator manufacturer's instructions for filter removal and insertion.
• Flush several cups of water through the new filter before use.
• Inspect fittings and check for leaks after installation; replace O-rings if damaged.

This electronic control is the user interface and control board that manages oven functions, timers and temperature regulation to restore responsive controls and proper cooking cycles. Fits as the direct replacement control assembly. What it does:

• Replaces a faulty oven control board to restore display, keypad and timed functions.
• Manages temperature setpoints, bake/broil cycles and timed cooking operations.
• Commonly used when the display is blank, buttons are unresponsive, or oven fails to heat properly.
• Interfaces with sensors, switches and relays to coordinate heating elements and fans.

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing to avoid shock risk.
• Handle the board by its edges; avoid touching components and connectors to prevent ESD damage.
• Verify connector orientation and secure all fasteners; ensure wiring harnesses are fully seated.

This temperature sensor (thermistor) monitors fresh food/freezer temperatures and sends readings to the refrigerator control board so the appliance maintains consistent cooling. Replaces a failed or intermittent sensor to restore accurate temperature control. What it does:

• Senses interior temperature and reports it to the control board
• Helps the compressor, fans and defrost system run at the correct times
• Common symptom: fridge or freezer temperatures are too warm or fluctuate
• Common symptom: unit runs constantly or cycles erratically
• Common symptom: inconsistent cooling between compartments

• One temperature sensor (thermistor)

• Disconnect power to the appliance before attempting any repairs
• Handle the sensor and wiring gently; avoid kinking or stretching the lead
• Verify connector pins align and seat fully; some models use a simple plug-in connector

This replacement tube routes water inside the refrigerator to properly direct drainage or supply lines, helping stop leaks and restore normal water flow. It's a direct-fit part used where original tubing has cracked or become clogged. What it does:

• Directs water flow for drainage or internal water lines
• Replaces cracked, split, or hardened tubing that can cause leaks
• Helps stop pooling or dripping inside the cabinet
• Restores proper routing of water to ice/water systems or drain channels

• One replacement tube as shown

• Disconnect power and shut off the water supply before starting
• Inspect fittings and clamps; replace any damaged hardware separately
• Trim tubing squarely and seat fully in fittings to prevent leaks

This blower wheel is the rotating fan impeller that moves cold air through the refrigerator/freezer evaporator and across the cabinet to maintain even cooling. Replaces a worn or damaged fan wheel to restore airflow. What it does:

• Fits onto the evaporator/fan motor to drive airflow through the evaporator and freezer/refrigerator compartments
• Restores proper circulation when a cracked, broken, or unbalanced wheel causes poor cooling
• Reduces unusual fan noise or vibration caused by damaged blades
• Helps maintain consistent cabinet temperatures by enabling efficient air circulation

• One blower wheel

• Disconnect power to the appliance before beginning any repair
• Access may require removing interior panels or the evaporator cover and disconnecting the fan motor
• Handle edges and sheet metal carefully; small fasteners or retaining clips typically secure the wheel to the motor shaft
• After installation, verify the wheel spins freely and the fan motor operates quietly

This printed wiring diagram shows the appliance's electrical schematic and component connections to help identify circuits and troubleshoot electrical issues. Handy reference for service techs and experienced DIYers. What it does:

• Displays component locations, wiring color codes and connector IDs for the appliance's control and power circuits
• Helps trace power to motors, compressors, lights, switches and electronic controls when diagnosing loss of power or intermittent operation
• Clarifies circuit paths for replacement of damaged harnesses, switches or control boards
• Useful for confirming correct wire routing during reassembly after repairs

• One printed wiring diagram sheet

• Disconnect power to the appliance before performing any diagnostics or repairs
• Use the diagram as a reference only; verify wire continuity and voltages with proper test equipment
• Handle the printed diagram carefully to avoid creasing or damage; store with the appliance service information
