KitchenAid KSRS27IKSS

Model # KSRS27IKSS

The KSRS27IKSS belongs to KitchenAid’s US refrigerator catalogue. It was on KitchenAid’s US product site from April 2001 to February 2002 and gone after that. That places the machine inside that window: 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.

At this age the work on a KSRS27IKSS 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.

Door switch and interior lighting faults, including a lamp that stays lit with the door shut

03

Broken crisper runners and door bin lugs - cosmetic, but worth sourcing while parts last

FAQ

KitchenAid KSRS27IKSS FAQ

Inside the refrigerator, on the left wall is where KitchenAid says the label is, and that holds for the KSRS27IKSS. The adhesive label there gives model and serial. Copying the KSRS27IKSS string character by character is worth the extra minute, since one letter separates several different cabinets.

The KSRS27IKSS is discontinued, but age alone does not decide it. Most of what fails on a KSRS27IKSS is a wear component priced in tens of dollars rather than hundreds, and those repairs stay worthwhile. The exception is the sealed system, where the cost sits close to what the cabinet is worth, and we check the parts position before quoting either way.

With the refrigerator switched off at its supply, leaving the KSRS27IKSS propped open to the air is sensible if it is no longer holding temperature, because a closed cabinet that is not cooling grows mould quickly. Food safety comes first on a KSRS27IKSS as on anything else, and anything that has sat above a safe temperature for hours should go in the bin.
