KitchenAid KBRC36MHW

Model # KBRC36MHW

Call (844) 405-1464 Schedule a Visit

The KBRC36MHW is one of the KitchenAid refrigerators. It appears on KitchenAid’s US product site in April 2001 and nowhere after that. That dates the machine to around then: discontinued, and now around a quarter of a century old. No published specification for this model was recovered. What survives is the model number and a dated record of when KitchenAid was showing it, and that is what is set out here.

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 KBRC36MHW01. A plate reading one of those is still a KBRC36MHW; 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 KBRC36MHW 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 KBRC36MHW FAQ

The KBRC36MHW plate is inside the refrigerator, on the left wall, in KitchenAid's own words. It is the adhesive label used across their major appliances, typically silver, and it carries both numbers. A photograph of the KBRC36MHW label is the most reliable thing you can send us.

It is discontinued, so parts availability is the question that decides everything else. We look up what can still be supplied for a KBRC36MHW at the outset, and if the part that has failed cannot be had we say so plainly instead of charging for a diagnosis that leads nowhere.

With the refrigerator switched off at its supply, the fill valve, the fill tube and the ice maker module on a KBRC36MHW are checked in that order, because a fill tube frozen shut imitates a dead module exactly. The sealed system on a KBRC36MHW is very rarely the reason ice production stops.
