Types of Kenmore Freezers We Repair

Our team routinely repairs major Kenmore residential freezer styles:

  • Frost‑free upright freezers
  • Manual‑defrost chest units in 10–25 cu ft sizes
  • Garage‑rated convertible refrigerators/freezers
  • Under‑counter compact freezer draws and drawer systems

Many models are built under Frigidaire or GE platforms (e.g., 795.x, 253.x series), so our training covers them all—especially common units found in Southern California homes.

Common Kenmore Freezer Problems We Fix

Our technicians identify and correct these frequent issues:

  • No freezing or warm cabinet—common causes include failed control board (≈23% of cases), weak compressor, or clogged condensing fan airflow.
  • Runs nonstop but won't cool—typically due to a bad relay kit, faulty starting capacitor, or sealed‑system refrigerant leak.
  • Heavy ice or frost buildup—often caused by a torn door gasket or a broken defrost timer/heater cycle.
  • Audible clicking or buzzing during startup—usually a start relay or compressor electrical fault, both of which we replace the same day.
  • Ice tray overflow or leaks—often due to a defective inlet valve or blockages in fill tubes common in Kenmore upright freezers.

OEM Kenmore Parts We Keep In Stock

To resolve breakdowns faster, our tech vans carry:

  • Control board model 297370602 or 216979700 to tackle major logic and temperature control failures.
  • Evaporator fan motors used in upright/chest Kenmore models to restore proper airflow.
  • Defrost timer boards (e.g. part 5304518034 or W10822278) to reset frost‑cycle faults.
  • Start relay kits and PTC overload assemblies to stop clicking and compressor start issues
  • Genuine door gaskets, thermostats, fill-valves, and other brushed‑seal components

Over 90 percent of refrigerator and freezer repairs in LA are completed in one trip thanks to these onboard parts.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) — Kenmore Freezer Repair

Why is my Kenmore freezer running but not freezing anymore?

If air circulation is blocked or the condenser fan isn't working, airflow stops and freezing fails. It might also be a faulty thermostat or control board.

Why is frost piling up all over my freezer walls?

This usually shows a defrost-component failure or a door gasket leak that allows warm air to condense inside the freezer.

What causes deafening clicking or humming from the unit?

Your freezer's compressor may struggle to start due to relay or motor failure. We diagnose and replace these motor-start kits to restore operation—often in under one hour.

My ice tray keeps overflowing—what's wrong?

In upright Kenmore freezers, a clogged fill tube or a noisy inlet valve is commonly to blame. Clearing or replacing these components can stop the mess.

Will using OEM parts maintain my warranty?

Yes. We use genuine Kenmore‑approved parts and EPA-certified tools—so every repair keeps factory compliance intact.
