Kenmore 59672232200 refrigerator Parts

To identify the correct water filter for your Kenmore refrigerator model 59672232200, we match the filter to your exact model number and the filter housing style inside the fresh food section. The model and serial tag is typically on the left wall of the refrigerator compartment; use that model number to select the compatible cartridge listed for your unit in the 59672232200 owner's manual.

Quick steps to find the right filter

• Locate the model/serial label inside the refrigerator section (commonly on the left wall).
• Check whether your refrigerator is equipped with a filter system (some versions are not).
• Find the filter location (often in the upper interior, grille area, or a base grille housing).
• Note the cartridge shape and how it locks in (push-in, quarter-turn, or latch).
• Match the filter by model number first; then confirm the housing style.

What to look for inside the refrigerator

Most Kenmore bottom-mount refrigerators use a cartridge that installs into a dedicated filter head. When you remove the old filter, compare these details:

What you see	What it usually means	What to do next
A twist/turn cartridge	Quarter-turn style filter	Match by model number and confirm the same twist interface
A push-in cartridge with a release button	Push-to-lock style filter	Match by model number and confirm the same latch/release design
No filter housing inside the refrigerator	Filter may be external or not equipped	Check the water line setup and the how to replace the water filter in a Kenmore refrigerator guide

Why it matters

Using the correct filter for 59672232200 helps maintain proper water flow to the water dispenser and ice maker, reduces leaks at the filter head, and avoids fit issues that can cause poor sealing or restricted water supply.

Common Kenmore Elite refrigerator issues (including Kenmore model 59672232200) usually fall into a few buckets: not cooling well, frost or moisture problems, odors, and unusual noises. Many are caused by airflow restrictions, dirty condenser coils, door sealing issues, or a failing cooling-system component; our 59672232200 owner's manual troubleshooting table is a good starting point.

Most common symptoms and what they usually mean

• Food too warm: condenser coils dirty, rear air grille blocked, controls need adjustment, or the door is not closing properly.
• Water droplets outside: high humidity or a weak door gasket seal.
• Water droplets inside: frequent door openings, high humidity, or control settings.
• Odors: spills, uncovered food, or a compartment that needs cleaning.
• Buzzing/clicking/humming: often normal cycling, but repeated clicking can point to a compressor start issue.

Quick checks we recommend first (no parts needed)

1. Confirm doors seal and close: check for torn gaskets and internal obstructions; level the refrigerator so doors self-close.
2. Clean condenser coils: dust buildup is a top cause of warm temps and long run times.
3. Verify airflow: keep vents and the rear air grille clear; avoid overpacking.
4. Adjust temperature controls: wait 24 hours after changes before judging results.
5. Listen for patterns: constant clicking or failure to start cooling points to an electrical start problem.

When a part is commonly involved

Symptom	Commonly involved area	Example part for this model
Ice maker not making ice	Ice maker assembly or ice mechanism	Refrigerator ice maker D7824706Q
Clicking near compressor, poor cooling	Start components or compressor circuit	Refrigerator overload WP12555902
Lights not working when door opens	Door switch or bulb	Refrigerator switch W11396033

Why it matters

Warm temperatures, moisture, and poor door sealing make the compressor run longer, which can shorten component life and increase energy use. Starting with cleaning, leveling, and airflow checks fixes many “not cooling” complaints without replacing parts.

On Kenmore refrigerator model 59672232200, the drain tube is typically routed from the evaporator drain area (inside the freezer, behind the rear panel) down to the drain pan underneath the cabinet near the compressor. You usually access it from the back or bottom front after removing the toe grille.

Where to look on a bottom-mount refrigerator

Most bottom-mount designs like the Kenmore 59672232200 use the same drain path: meltwater leaves the freezer evaporator area, travels through a drain tube, and ends at the drain pan where it evaporates.

• Inside the freezer: behind the rear interior panel, under the evaporator (drain trough and drain hole)
• Under the refrigerator: the tube terminates at the drain pan near the compressor area
• Access points: toe grille area (front bottom) or rear service area (back lower panel)

For the safest, model-correct panel removal and access steps, follow the 59672232200 owner's manual.

Quick access steps (typical)

1. Unplug the refrigerator.
2. Pull the unit forward enough to work safely.
3. Remove the toe grille (front bottom) to look for the drain pan and tube end.
4. If you suspect an internal ice clog, remove freezer drawers and the rear freezer panel to locate the drain trough and drain hole.

What you should see

Location	What it looks like	What it does
Freezer evaporator area	Drain trough/hole under evaporator	Collects defrost water
Cabinet drain tube	Rubber or plastic tube	Routes water downward
Drain pan	Shallow pan near compressor	Evaporates collected water

Why it matters

A partially blocked drain tube is a common cause of water pooling, ice buildup on the freezer floor, or leaks at the front of a bottom-mount refrigerator. Finding the tube end at the drain pan helps you confirm whether water is draining properly.
