KitchenAid KSSC36MFS

Model # KSSC36MFS

The KSSC36MFS is a US-market KitchenAid refrigerator, recorded by its source as a 36″ built-in side-by-side refrigerator in the Superba series. It appears on KitchenAid’s US product site in January 2000 and nowhere after that. That dates the machine to around then: discontinued, and now around a quarter of a century old. Nothing beyond what that source states is claimed here, and no figure has been carried across from a neighbouring model number.

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 KSSC36MFS05. A plate reading one of those is still a KSSC36MFS; the suffix identifies which production revision you have, and it occasionally decides which version of a part fits. At this age the work on a KSSC36MFS is mostly mechanical and electrical rather than electronic — seals, fans, defrost components, switches and the start device. Those are the parts still in circulation for cabinets of this generation, and they are what we check availability on before any figure is put on a repair.

FAQ

KitchenAid KSSC36MFS FAQ

Open the fresh food door and look at the left wall - KitchenAid puts the refrigerator model and serial plate inside the refrigerator, on the left wall, and the KSSC36MFS is no exception. Having the full KSSC36MFS number and the serial to hand is what lets a part be identified before anyone travels out.

Production of the KSSC36MFS ended long ago. That does not rule out a repair - the wear items on a refrigerator are largely shared across a generation - but it does mean the parts question on a KSSC36MFS is settled before any figure is put on the work.

With the refrigerator switched off at its supply, the first things checked on a KSSC36MFS are the airflow path from the freezer and the evaporator fan that drives it. A fan that has stopped, or an evaporator frosted over, starves the fresh food side while the freezer carries on as normal. On a KSSC36MFS that is component-level work rather than anything to do with the sealed system.
