KitchenAid KSSC48FKB

Model # KSSC48FKB

The KSSC48FKB is a US-market KitchenAid refrigerator. It was on KitchenAid’s US product site from April 2003 to August 2003 and gone after that. That places the machine inside that window: discontinued, and now roughly twenty years old. No published specification for this model was recovered. What survives is the model number and a dated record of when KitchenAid was showing it, and that is what is set out here.

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 KSSC48FKB00, KSSC48FKB01, KSSC48FKB02. A plate reading one of those is still a KSSC48FKB; 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 KSSC48FKB 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.

Most Common Issues on This Model

01

Ice maker fill or harvest faults, where an ice maker is fitted

02

An interior lamp that has failed, or a door switch that no longer tells the control the door is closed

03

Shelf and bin breakages, which on a discontinued model are worth chasing early

04

Door gasket hardened with age, so the seal no longer pulls the door tight against the cabinet

FAQ

KitchenAid KSSC48FKB FAQ

KitchenAid places the refrigerator plate inside the refrigerator, on the left wall, so that is where the KSSC48FKB label will be. It lists the model and the serial on the same silver sticker. Getting the KSSC48FKB number exactly right matters more on an older cabinet, where parts diverged between otherwise identical-looking siblings.

It is discontinued, so parts availability is the question that decides everything else. We look up what can still be supplied for a KSSC48FKB at the outset, and if the part that has failed cannot be had we say so plainly instead of charging for a diagnosis that leads nowhere.

With the refrigerator switched off at its supply, the condenser coils and condenser fan on a KSSC48FKB are the first place to look, because a coil packed with dust makes the compressor work far longer to shed the same heat. A perished door seal on a KSSC48FKB produces exactly the same symptom, so both are checked together.
