KitchenAid KSSS36QDW03

Model # KSSS36QDW03

Call (844) 405-1464 Schedule a Visit

The KSSS36QDW03 is one of the KitchenAid refrigerators, recorded by its source as a 36″ built-in side-by-side refrigerator in the Superba series. KitchenAid’s own US product site was showing it in March 2000, and no later listing for it was recovered. That makes it a long-discontinued cabinet, 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.

KSSS36QDW03 is published here exactly as KitchenAid printed it, with the two-digit production-revision code on the end. The bare base KSSS36QDW was never itself observed in any source, so it is not offered as a model number — the form on your rating plate will be the full KSSS36QDW03 string. At this age the work on a KSSS36QDW03 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 KSSS36QDW03 FAQ

KitchenAid gives the location for its refrigerators as inside the refrigerator, on the left wall, and that is where the KSSS36QDW03 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 KSSS36QDW03 sits in a family of very similar numbers.

If a part for the KSSS36QDW03 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 KSSS36QDW03, not last.

With the refrigerator switched off at its supply, a sudden and total loss of cooling on a KSSS36QDW03 points at the compressor start device or the control rather than gradual wear, since wear-related faults arrive slowly. The distinction matters on a KSSS36QDW03, because one is an inexpensive component and the other decides whether the cabinet is worth keeping.
