KitchenAid KSSS36QD

Model # KSSS36QD

Call (844) 405-1464 Schedule a Visit

The KSSS36QD belongs to KitchenAid’s US refrigerator catalogue, 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 March 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.

At this age the work on a KSSS36QD 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.

  • 36" built-in side-by-side refrigerator

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 KSSS36QD FAQ

KitchenAid places the refrigerator plate inside the refrigerator, on the left wall, so that is where the KSSS36QD label will be. It lists the model and the serial on the same silver sticker. Getting the KSSS36QD number exactly right matters more on an older cabinet, where parts diverged between otherwise identical-looking siblings.

The KSSS36QD is out of production, and whether repair beats replacement comes down to which component has gone. A seal, a fan or a control is usually straightforward economics; a sealed-system failure on a KSSS36QD of this age rarely is, and we will tell you so.

With the refrigerator switched off at its supply, and the water line closed where one is fitted, a KSSS36QD comes forward on its rollers once the front levelling feet are wound up clear of the floor. Taking the weight off those feet first is what prevents a scored floor and a strained door frame on a KSSS36QD.
