Find your number below, or read where to find it on the unit. Each page says what that machine is, what tends to go wrong with it, and what the work costs here. 65 — models people ask about by number 3 — counties covered end to end OEM — parts available on order from $95 — diagnostic, credited to the repair ## The numbers people ask us about Each page lists what owners of that model actually search for, what the machine is, and where those symptoms usually lead. No model pages published yet. Call [(305) 680-1018](tel:+13056801018) with the number from the data plate. ## Where the model number is on your unit It depends on the appliance. Inside the fresh food compartment on a refrigerator, usually high on the left or right wall. On the edge of the door on a dishwasher. On the frame inside the door on a wall oven or a range. Behind a filter on a hood. Inside the door frame on a microwave, a washer or a dryer. Behind the grille at the bottom on an undercounter cabinet, and inside the door frame on a wine cellar. Take a photograph rather than writing it down. The full number includes the letters after the digits — those decide which parts fit, and they are the part people misread most often. ## Or start from the symptom If you do not have the number to hand, start from what the unit is doing. Every symptom page says what to check first and when it stops being a five-minute job. ## This is a list of what people ask about, not of what we repair. 65 numbers have pages here because those are the ones people search for by number. We work on the rest of the range as well — the pages simply follow demand rather than the catalog. Tell us the number from the data plate and what the unit is doing, and we will tell you what the machine is, what the symptom usually points at, and what the work involves. **Call [(305) 680-1018](tel:+13056801018)**, or send a photograph of the plate through the form above. ## Questions about models and parts Is a twenty-year-old unit still worth repairing? — Usually, yes. These were built to be repaired, and a legacy cabinet in good condition with sound cabinetry is worth keeping. Where it stops being worth it is when the work approaches what the unit is worth, or when a second major failure is already visible — and we will say so on the visit rather than after. Can you still get parts for the older units? — For most of what fails, yes — OEM parts are available on order, though legacy parts can take a few days to source. That is why we confirm a part is the problem before ordering it rather than after. Why do you not list the specifications for each model? — Because we cannot verify them. Capacity, dimensions and production years published second-hand are wrong often enough that a table of them would be a liability, and inventing one would break our own rule about publishing only what we can stand behind. What we do publish is what the number means for the repair. The number on my unit has letters after it. Does that matter? — Yes, for parts. The digits identify the family; the letters identify the configuration, and two units sharing the same digits can take different components. Photograph the whole plate and we will read it from there. Do you work on the current range as well? — Yes, the whole current range. These pages exist because a number is what people search by; everything else this maker sells is covered on the appliance pages. ## What a Kenmore model number actually tells you ### The three digits before the period do the work Kenmore has never manufactured an appliance, so a model number here is not a family, a platform or a generation. It is two facts stuck together. The three digits before the period name the company that built the machine, and everything after it identifies the specific unit that company made. 110, 106 and 665 are Whirlpool. 795 and 796 are LG. 253, 790, 587 and 417 are Frigidaire. 362 and 363 are GE, 233 is Broan, 911 is Roper, and 630 is Bosch. Two appliances that look identical in a showroom can be built by two different manufacturers, and the number is the only thing that says so. ### Why these pages carry the number without its period The plate prints it as 110.44832400 and this site writes it as 11044832400, and both are on every page. The reason is mechanical: search treats a dotted number as two terms and an undotted one as one, and the phrase a page is filed under has to appear on that page as a single string. So the title, the address and the search phrase drop the period, the prose keeps it, and somebody holding the appliance can match what they are looking at against what is written. ### Kenmore, Elite and Pro are trim levels They are feature and finish levels applied across whichever manufacturer built the unit, not engineering families. An Elite refrigerator may be LG-built and an Elite range Frigidaire-built, and neither fact follows from the badge on the door. If somebody has told you what your appliance is based on the line name, they have told you nothing about the parts inside it. ### Why this list looks the way it does Every number here was confirmed on a catalog page that names the appliance, one at a time, rather than worked out from its prefix — because the prefix does not name the appliance. Verification found a gas range filed under a dishwasher prefix and a freezer under a refrigeration one. That makes this a shorter list than a generated one would be, and a correct one. If your number is not on it, that says nothing about whether we repair the appliance: send the whole number off the plate and what it is doing, and we will tell you who built it and what the visit would involve. ## Send the plate, and what it is doing. A photograph of the data plate and a line about the symptom is enough for us to say what is likely and what it should cost. --- **[Read full article: Models archive](https://kenmoremiami.support/models-archive/)**
