A Kenmore ice maker shares its basic needs with every other ice maker, cold air, water and a working mechanism, but where it sits, how it is reset and the codes it shows are specific to the brand and model. We flag companies whose listing or website mentions Kenmore and fill in with nearby appliance repair companies so you always have options.
Independent listings only: Freezer Repair Near Me is not affiliated with or endorsed by Kenmore. If your appliance is still under manufacturer coverage, contact Kenmore directly.
With a Kenmore refrigerator or freezer, the model number matters more than the badge: Kenmore appliances were built by several manufacturers for Sears, and the model number tells a technician which ice maker and parts apply.

Most ice maker calls in Danville come down to the same handful of causes: water supply and pressure, a frozen fill tube, the water inlet valve, freezer temperature and the ice maker assembly itself.
