What to do if Kenmore Air Conditioner doesn't cool the room and there is ice behind front panel?
- J
  Jennifer HooperAug 17, 2025
  If your Kenmore Air Conditioner does not cool the room and there is ice behind the front panel, consider the following: * If the outside temperature is below 16 °C, set the mode to FAN ONLY and the fan speed to the fastest setting to defrost the coil. * If the filter is dirty, open the front panel, remove the filter, rinse or vacuum it, replace it, and close the panel. * If the BTU size is too large, a lower capacity unit may be required depending on the size of the room being cooled.

  If your Kenmore Air Conditioner won't operate, check these potential causes: * Ensure the power supply cord is firmly pushed into a live wall outlet with the correct voltage. * Replace any blown fuse with a time delay type or reset the circuit breaker. * Press the ON/OFF button to ensure the unit is turned ON. * Adjust the temperature to a lower setting if it's warmer than the room temperature. * Allow 3 minutes for the compressor to restart if the unit was recently turned OFF and ON. * Press the ON/OFF button if the timer shut the unit OFF. * If the touch pad and remote are unresponsive, unplug the unit for 10 seconds to reset the controls. * Press the RESET button on the plug head if the power cord has tripped.

Why does my Kenmore 253.35005 keep blowing fuses or tripping the circuit breaker?
- C
  Christine JohnsonAug 25, 2025
  If your Kenmore Air Conditioner blows fuses or trips the circuit breaker, try these solutions: * Replace the fuse with a time delay type or reset the circuit breaker. * Unplug or relocate some electrical devices that share the same circuit. * Ensure the unit is plugged into a single circuit outlet if it's rated over 7.5 amps. * Do not use an extension cord to run the unit. * Turn the unit OFF and wait 3 minutes before restarting if it was turned OFF and ON too quickly.

Why does my Kenmore Air Conditioner turn on and off by itself?
- C
  Caleb GentryAug 28, 2025
  If your Kenmore Air Conditioner turns on and off by itself, it could be due to these reasons: * When the outside temperature is extremely hot, set the fan speed at the fastest setting for maximum cooling. * If the ENERGY SAVER feature is on, note that it doesn't circulate air continually; switch to COOL mode for constant air circulation. * If the timer turned the unit ON or OFF, use the ON/OFF button to control the unit.

Why is my Kenmore Air Conditioner running too much?
- A
  Amanda MorrisSep 1, 2025
  If your Kenmore Air Conditioner runs too much, here's what might be happening: * When Energy Saver mode is active, the inside blower continues operating for one minute to use as much cooling as available in the evaporator. * If you've replaced an older unit, the newer, higher efficiency air conditioner may run longer to cool the room, but total energy consumption is less due to the higher efficiency. * If the BTU size is too small, you might need a higher capacity unit depending on the room size.

Why is my Kenmore 253.35005 Air Conditioner dripping water inside the room?
- S
  Susan CobbSep 5, 2025
  If water is dripping from your Kenmore Air Conditioner inside the room, it's likely due to improper installation. The unit should be mounted on a 1/4" downward slope to the outside (1/2 bubble on a carpenter’s level) to ensure proper drainage. Reposition or shim the cabinet as needed, but do not drill the drain pan.

- S
  Sandra UnderwoodSep 8, 2025
  If the remote will not operate your Kenmore Air Conditioner, verify that the batteries are installed properly. Also, the remote may not work properly when used at extreme angles to the front of the unit.
