KitchenAid KSSC48MFS

Model # KSSC48MFS

Call (844) 405-1464 Schedule a Visit

The KSSC48MFS is one of the KitchenAid refrigerators, recorded by its source as a 48″ 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 KSSC48MFS05. A plate reading one of those is still a KSSC48MFS; 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 KSSC48MFS 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

Water inlet valve or supply line leaks, where a water feed is plumbed in

02

A start device that has failed, so the compressor hums briefly and drops out on overload

03

A control board aged out of service, the part most worth checking availability on first

04

Evaporator fan motor noise, or a fan that stops and lets the fresh food side climb while the freezer stays cold

FAQ

KitchenAid KSSC48MFS 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 KSSC48MFS is no exception. Having the full KSSC48MFS number and the serial to hand is what lets a part be identified before anyone travels out.

If a part for the KSSC48MFS cannot be sourced, we tell you at the point we find out and you are not billed for work that cannot be completed. That check comes first on a discontinued model like the KSSC48MFS, not last.

With the refrigerator switched off at its supply, a door on a KSSC48MFS that will not close itself is usually a worn hinge or closer cam. It matters because a door left fractionally open runs the compressor continuously and frosts the evaporator, so on a KSSC48MFS it turns into a cooling complaint if it is ignored.
