KitchenAid KBLC36FKB

Model # KBLC36FKB

The KBLC36FKB 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, so there is no capacity or dimension quoted on this page. A number lifted from a sibling model would be worse than silence.

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 KBLC36FKB00, KBLC36FKB01, KBLC36FKB02. A plate reading one of those is still a KBLC36FKB; 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 KBLC36FKB 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 KBLC36FKB FAQ

KitchenAid gives the location for its refrigerators as inside the refrigerator, on the left wall, and that is where the KBLC36FKB 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 KBLC36FKB sits in a family of very similar numbers.

The KBLC36FKB is no longer in production. Fans, thermostats, door seals, switches and drain components are generally still obtainable for a cabinet of this generation; cabinet-specific trim and control boards are the ones that dry up. We check sourcing for the KBLC36FKB first and quote second.

With the refrigerator switched off at its supply, a sudden and total loss of cooling on a KBLC36FKB points at the compressor start device or the control rather than gradual wear, since wear-related faults arrive slowly. The distinction matters on a KBLC36FKB, because one is an inexpensive component and the other decides whether the cabinet is worth keeping.
