KitchenAid KRFC302ESS

Model # KRFC302ESS

KitchenAid sold the KRFC302ESS as part of its US refrigerator range. It was on KitchenAid’s US product site from July 2015 to March 2017 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, 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 KRFC302ESS 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 KRFC302ESS FAQ

KitchenAid gives the location for its refrigerators as inside the refrigerator, on the left wall, and that is where the KRFC302ESS 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 KRFC302ESS sits in a family of very similar numbers.

The KRFC302ESS 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 KRFC302ESS first and quote second.

With the refrigerator switched off at its supply, a sudden and total loss of cooling on a KRFC302ESS points at the compressor start device or the control rather than gradual wear, since wear-related faults arrive slowly. The distinction matters on a KRFC302ESS, because one is an inexpensive component and the other decides whether the cabinet is worth keeping.
