KENMORE FRIDGE ELITE 795 Not Cooling

LG Linear Compressor Universal Kit

This Kenmore model is an LG-manufactured unit utilizing a Linear Compressor. Statistically, the most common failure mode is an internal mechanical discharge valve failure. While the compressor may hum or feel warm, it fails to compress the refrigerant, resulting in a total loss of cooling in both compartments.

Evaporator Fan Motor

If the compressor is confirmed operational, the evaporator fan motor is the next failure point. In these units, the motor can fail electronically, preventing cold air from being circulated from the coils into the food zones, even if the sealed system is producing frost.

Defrost Thermostat Assembly

A failure in the defrost termination sensor or thermostat prevents the unit from clearing frost off the evaporator coils. This leads to ice blockages that choke airflow, causing a gradual loss of cooling that typically begins in the refrigerator section while the freezer remains moderately cold.
