KitchenAid KBRS20ET

Model # KBRS20ET

The KBRS20ET is a KitchenAid refrigerator. It appears on KitchenAid’s US product site in May 2012 and nowhere after that. That dates the machine to around then: discontinued, and now about a decade into service. 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.

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 KBRS20ET 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

Defrost faults - heater, thermostat or timer - leaving the evaporator packed with frost and the cabinet slowly warming

02

An ice maker that fills but will not eject, or a bin that has frozen into one solid block

03

Lighting and door-switch problems, worth ruling out before anything is assumed about the cooling side

04

Cracked door bins and shelf trim, ordinary wear on a cabinet of this age

FAQ

KitchenAid KBRS20ET 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 KBRS20ET is no exception. Having the full KBRS20ET number and the serial to hand is what lets a part be identified before anyone travels out.

If a part for the KBRS20ET 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 KBRS20ET, not last.

With the refrigerator switched off at its supply, a door on a KBRS20ET 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 KBRS20ET it turns into a cooling complaint if it is ignored.
