KitchenAid KBRC36FTS

Model # KBRC36FTS

Call (844) 405-1464 Schedule a Visit

The KBRC36FTS belongs to KitchenAid’s US refrigerator catalogue. It was on KitchenAid’s US product site from May 2011 to July 2015 and gone after that. That places the machine inside that window: discontinued, and now getting on for fifteen 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 KBRC36FTS00, KBRC36FTS02, KBRC36FTS03, KBRC36FTS04, KBRC36FTS05, KBRC36FTS06, KBRC36FTS08. A plate reading one of those is still a KBRC36FTS; the suffix identifies which production revision you have, and it occasionally decides which version of a part fits. A cabinet of this vintage is past the point where the door seal, the evaporator fan and the defrost components are as-new, and those account for most of what a KBRC36FTS is called out for. Since the model is discontinued, we settle what can still be supplied for it before the work is quoted.

Most Common Issues on This Model

01

Control board faults after many years of service, showing as a cabinet that ignores its settings

A failing evaporator fan, heard as a rising whine or a rattle that changes when the door is held shut

A condenser fan that has seized or slowed, which shows first as poor cooling in warm weather

FAQ

KitchenAid KBRC36FTS 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 KBRC36FTS is no exception. Having the full KBRC36FTS number and the serial to hand is what lets a part be identified before anyone travels out.

The KBRC36FTS 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 KBRC36FTS first and quote second.

With the refrigerator switched off at its supply, a door on a KBRC36FTS 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 KBRC36FTS it turns into a cooling complaint if it is ignored.
