KitchenAid KSCS23FVMK

Model # KSCS23FVMK

The KSCS23FVMK is a KitchenAid refrigerator. It appears on KitchenAid’s US product site in December 2010 and nowhere after that. That dates the machine to around then: discontinued, and now getting on for fifteen years old. No published specification for this model was recovered, so there is no capacity or dimension quoted on this page. A number lifted from a sibling model would be worse than silence.

KitchenAid appends a two-digit production-revision code to the base number on the rating plate, and the codes actually observed for this model are KSCS23FVMK00, KSCS23FVMK01, KSCS23FVMK02. A plate reading one of those is still a KSCS23FVMK; the suffix identifies which production revision you have, and it occasionally decides which version of a part fits. A cabinet of this vintage is past the point where the door seal, the evaporator fan and the defrost components are as-new, and those account for most of what a KSCS23FVMK is called out for. Since the model is discontinued, we settle what can still be supplied for it before the work is quoted.

FAQ

KitchenAid KSCS23FVMK FAQ

KitchenAid gives the location for its refrigerators as inside the refrigerator, on the left wall, and that is where the KSCS23FVMK plate sits. It is an adhesive label, typically silver on major appliances, carrying the model number and the serial number together. Read the whole string off the label rather than from memory, because a KSCS23FVMK sits in a family of very similar numbers.

The KSCS23FVMK is no longer in production. Fans, thermostats, door seals, switches and drain components are generally still obtainable for a cabinet of this generation; cabinet-specific trim and control boards are the ones that dry up. We check sourcing for the KSCS23FVMK first and quote second.

With the refrigerator switched off at its supply, a sudden and total loss of cooling on a KSCS23FVMK points at the compressor start device or the control rather than gradual wear, since wear-related faults arrive slowly. The distinction matters on a KSCS23FVMK, because one is an inexpensive component and the other decides whether the cabinet is worth keeping.
