Kenmore 46-71352 Garage Refrigerator Repair

Most common issues on this model
- Icemaker stopping or producing little ice
- Freezer cold but fresh food section warm
- Compressor running long when the room is warm
- Gasket not sealing along the bottom
The Kenmore 46-71352 appears in the current lineup as a 20.2 cu ft top-freezer refrigerator with an icemaker. It is garage-ready, built to work across a wider ambient temperature range than a standard indoor refrigerator, and it is ENERGY STAR rated. White and black are the finishes.
Kenmore does not say who built this model, and we do not assume. The prefix on the model label points to the manufacturer, and we use that to match parts and tests. Model and serial are noted from the label before ordering.
Because it may sit in a garage, we check the condenser coils and fan first, then the damper, the evaporator fan and the defrost system. The icemaker gets its own look at the valve and the tray. We also press the door gasket against the cabinet to find gaps. A written price comes first, and each repair has a 30-day workmanship warranty.

Error codes this model can show
The freezer is cold but the fridge is warm. Why?
Cold air moves from the freezer to the fresh food side through a damper and fan. A frosted evaporator or a stuck damper stops it, and we check both.
Is the 46-71352 different from the 18.1 cu ft garage models?
Its listing gives 20.2 cu ft, white or black. The 18.1 cu ft model is listed separately. We confirm size from your label before we order anything.
What breaks the door seal on a refrigerator in a garage?
Heat, cold and dust all wear gaskets. We test the seal with a strip of paper and replace the gasket if it slides out easily.
