Expert repair for Kenmore appliances, in and out of warranty
Kenmore began as the Sears house brand and has never built its own appliances. Instead, other manufacturers produced Kenmore models, including Whirlpool, LG, Electrolux (Frigidaire) and others. The three-digit prefix in a Kenmore model number usually reveals the original maker, for example 110 for many Whirlpool-built laundry machines or 795 for many LG-built refrigerators. That's where Kenmore appliance repair starts: once we know who built it, we know which parts and diagnostic tests apply.
Fix Cheetah repairs Kenmore appliances across Vancouver, Burnaby, Surrey, Langley, Maple Ridge, Abbotsford and Chilliwack. Many Kenmores in BC homes are well past their original warranty, but they are often worth repairing because the parts come from mainstream manufacturers and remain widely available.

About Kenmore
The Kenmore name first appeared on a Sears sewing machine in 1913, and the first Kenmore washing machine followed in 1927. For most of the twentieth century Kenmore was among the best-selling appliance brands in North America, sold exclusively through Sears and Sears Canada. When Sears Canada closed its stores in 2017 and 2018, Kenmore largely disappeared from Canadian shelves.
Sears Holdings sold the Kenmore brand to Transformco in 2019, and it has since started returning to Canadian retail with a smaller range of products such as freezers and wine cellars. Most Kenmores in BC homes, though, are refrigerators, washers, dryers, dishwashers, ranges and microwaves bought from Sears Canada, built under contract by manufacturers such as Whirlpool, LG and Electrolux.

Kenmore microwave repairCommon Kenmore problems we fix
Kenmore washer not spinning
On Kenmore laundry with a 110 prefix, a worn lid switch or drive coupler is a frequent cause. The same repair procedures as the matching Whirlpool model apply.
Kenmore fridge not cooling
Kenmore refrigerators with a 795 prefix share LG platforms, so fan motors, defrost components and compressor controls follow LG diagnostics.
Kenmore dryer not heating
An open thermal fuse, failed element or weak gas igniter is typical. The right part depends on who built the dryer, so we always check the model tag first.
Kenmore ice maker not dispensing
Ice clumps, a failed auger motor or a frozen fill tube stop dispensing. Designs vary considerably depending on the original manufacturer.
Dishwasher leaving food on dishes
Kenmore dishwashers built by different makers use different filter and pump designs, but a clogged filter or blocked spray arm is usually the starting point.

Kenmore repair FAQ
Who actually made my Kenmore?
Check the model number on the tag. The first three digits usually identify the manufacturer, and we can tell you who built it when you call us or book online.
Can I still get parts for an old Kenmore?
In most cases, yes, because the parts are made for the original manufacturer's equivalent model. Our Kenmore work is out-of-warranty repair, and if you have a newer unit with coverage we can point you in the right direction.
