KitchenAid KSSS48FM

Model # KSSS48FM

The KSSS48FM is a KitchenAid refrigerator. It appears on KitchenAid’s US product site in January 2006 and nowhere after that. That dates the machine to around then: discontinued, and now roughly twenty years 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 KSSS48FM 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 KSSS48FM FAQ

The KSSS48FM 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 KSSS48FM 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 KSSS48FM 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 KSSS48FM are checked in that order, because a fill tube frozen shut imitates a dead module exactly. The sealed system on a KSSS48FM is very rarely the reason ice production stops.
