KitchenAid KFIV29PCMS

Model # KFIV29PCMS

The KFIV29PCMS is a KitchenAid refrigerator. It was on KitchenAid’s US product site from July 2014 to July 2015 and gone after that. That places the machine inside that window: discontinued, and now about a decade into service. 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 KFIV29PCMS03. A plate reading one of those is still a KFIV29PCMS; 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 KFIV29PCMS is called out for. Since the model is discontinued, we settle what can still be supplied for it before the work is quoted.

FAQ

KitchenAid KFIV29PCMS FAQ

KitchenAid places the refrigerator plate inside the refrigerator, on the left wall, so that is where the KFIV29PCMS label will be. It lists the model and the serial on the same silver sticker. Getting the KFIV29PCMS number exactly right matters more on an older cabinet, where parts diverged between otherwise identical-looking siblings.

It is discontinued, so parts availability is the question that decides everything else. We look up what can still be supplied for a KFIV29PCMS 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 condenser coils and condenser fan on a KFIV29PCMS are the first place to look, because a coil packed with dust makes the compressor work far longer to shed the same heat. A perished door seal on a KFIV29PCMS produces exactly the same symptom, so both are checked together.
