Parts for Kenmore 253.8771060 (2538771060, 253 8771060): Unit Parts

This tube connector joins the refrigerator water line to internal tubing, restoring a secure, leak-resistant connection for the ice maker and dispenser. Use when a cracked or loose tube causes leaks or poor water flow. What it does:

• Connects and secures the refrigerator's water tubing to internal fittings.
• Prevents leaks and helps maintain proper water flow to the ice maker and dispenser.
• Commonly replaced for visible cracks, splits, or loose fittings that cause dripping.
• Works with rigid or flexible water tubing depending on the appliance plumbing layout.

• Turn off water supply and unplug the appliance before starting work.
• Verify tubing sizes and seating; push tubing fully into the connector until it locks (or secure per OEM fitting style).
• Inspect nearby tubing and fittings; replace any damaged sections to prevent repeat leaks.
