Kenmore 61369 Large Top Freezer Fridge Repair

Most common issues on this model
- Food spoiling on the lower shelves
- Compressor running almost constantly
- Frost on the freezer ceiling
- Condenser fan stopped or dragging
The Kenmore 61369 is a 33-inch electric top-freezer holding 25 cu ft, finished in stainless and black. Refrigerators of this size are usually the main unit in a household and run all day, so heat from the condenser matters.
Without the plate, the Kenmore name leaves the builder unknown. Its prefix reveals who made the refrigerator, which in turn sets our parts source and test routine. Model and serial numbers are copied from the plate before ordering.
When a big top-freezer runs almost constantly, we start at the condenser coils and fan, since lint and pet hair there force the compressor to work harder. Then we check the evaporator, the freezer fan and the door seal for leaks that make the cabinet work to recover. We put the price in writing before starting. Labor on the repair is warranted for 30 days.

Why does my fridge run all the time?
Dirty coils, a weak condenser fan, a door gap or a frosted evaporator all lengthen the cycle. We check them in order, because cleaning coils or replacing a fan costs far less than a sealed-system job.
Is frost on the freezer ceiling a sign of a leak?
Often it is. Humid air entering through a gasket gap freezes at the coldest spot. We test the door seal and the defrost heater so frost stops forming, rather than just scraping it off.
How do you decide between a repair and a replacement unit?
We diagnose the cause, give you a written price and say plainly what the repair covers. If the cost is close to a replacement or the sealed system has failed, we tell you before any work begins.
