Kenmore 10658026800 side-by-side refrigerator Parts

The exact cubic-foot capacity for Kenmore side-by-side refrigerator model 10658026800 is listed on the model’s rating label and in the 10658026800 owner’s manual. If you need a quick estimate, most full-size 36-inch side-by-side refrigerators are typically in the 22 to 26 cu. ft. range.

Fast ways to find the exact capacity

• Check the rating label inside the fresh food section (commonly on a side wall near the crisper area).
• Look for wording like “Capacity”, “Total volume”, or “cu. ft.”
• Use the model number 10658026800 when comparing specs to avoid mixing similar Kenmore 106 models.
• If you are measuring cabinet space, confirm the 36-inch minimum cabinet cutout width noted in the manual.

Where capacity shows up (and what it may be called)

Where you look	What it may say	Why it helps
Inside refrigerator rating label	Total capacity (cu. ft.)	Most direct, model-specific value
Product manual/spec section	Capacity/volume	Confirms the official spec
Retail listing/spec sheet (if available)	Total, refrigerator, freezer volume	Useful for compartment breakdown

Why it matters

Capacity affects how your refrigerator cools when fully loaded, how much airflow you need around the cabinet, and whether shelves and bins fit your storage needs. It also helps when choosing accessories like water filters and when comparing side-by-side models.

Related tip for this model

If you are troubleshooting cooling or airflow issues while checking specs, make sure vents are not blocked and the refrigerator has proper clearance for ventilation (the manual calls out spacing around the cabinet). For operating and setup details, use the 10658026800 owner’s manual.

On Kenmore side-by-side refrigerator model 10658026800, the SY EF (or 5Y EF) code points to a problem in the evaporator fan circuit, meaning the refrigerator may not be moving cold air correctly through the freezer and fresh food sections. Use the 10658026800 owner's manual troubleshooting section to confirm the checks for your exact configuration.

What to check first (most common causes)

• Evaporator fan not running: listen for a fan sound from the freezer when the door switch is held closed.
• Ice buildup blocking the fan: heavy frost can stop the fan blade from turning.
• Loose or damaged wiring: especially at the fan motor connector and harness routing.
• Failed evaporator fan motor: motor may be noisy, intermittent, or completely dead.
• Control issue: a failed defrost control or main control can misread the fan circuit.

Parts that commonly relate to SY EF troubleshooting

If the fan is blocked by frost or the fan is not operating, these model-matched parts are often involved in the repair path:

Symptom you see	What it usually points to	Model-matched part to consider
Fan blade hits ice or won’t spin	Defrost problem causing frost buildup	Refrigerator defrost heater WP2323198
Fan motor hums, stalls, or is dead	Failed fan motor	Refrigerator evaporator fan motor WP2315549
Fan blade cracked or slipping	Damaged fan blade	Refrigerator evaporator fan blade WP2169142

Why it matters

The evaporator fan is what pushes cold air off the evaporator coil and circulates it through the refrigerator. When the fan circuit has a fault, temperatures can rise, airflow can drop, and frost can build up faster, which can lead to warm food and poor ice production.

Quick reset and airflow steps (safe basics)

• Unplug the refrigerator (or turn off the breaker) for 5 minutes, then restore power.
• Make sure freezer vents are not blocked by food packages.
• Confirm doors seal fully and close without bouncing.
• If you see heavy frost on the freezer back panel, plan to troubleshoot the defrost system.

If your Kenmore side-by-side refrigerator model 10658026800 ice maker isn’t making ice, the most common causes are the ice maker being switched OFF, the freezer door/bin position stopping the optics, or a water supply problem (filter restriction, kinked line, or a failing inlet valve). Use the steps below to pinpoint the failure quickly using the 10658026800 owner's manual.

Quick checks that fix most “no ice” complaints

• Confirm the ice maker On/Off switch is ON (the switch is on the top right side of the freezer compartment).
• Make sure the freezer door closes fully; the dispenser system will not operate with the freezer door open.
• Reseat the ice storage bin; if the bin is removed or not seated, the freezer wall “flipper door”/sensor cover can stop ice production.
• Allow enough time after changes: 24 hours for the first batch; up to 3 days to fill the bin.
• Discard the first three batches after restoring water flow or replacing a filter.

Water supply and fill problems (most common after “it used to work”)

If the ice maker is ON but the mold never fills, focus on water delivery:

• Check the household shutoff valve is fully open.
• Inspect the supply line for kinks behind the refrigerator.
• Replace a clogged water filter and reinstall the cap correctly (the cap is reused).
• If water dispenses slowly at the door, suspect restriction or a weak valve.

Part that commonly causes “no fill”: Refrigerator inlet valve W10408179.

Symptom-to-cause guide

What you notice	Most likely cause	What to do next
Ice maker silent, no cycling	Ice maker switched OFF or optics blocked	Turn ON; close door; reseat bin
Mold is dry (no water)	Water supply issue or inlet valve not opening	Check line/filter; test/replace valve
Cubes clump or look odd	Normal bridging or water quality issue	Break apart; avoid softened water
You hear buzzing but still no ice	Valve energizing but water not flowing	Check shutoff, line kink, frozen fill path

Why it matters

An ice maker depends on three basics: the ON setting, a closed door/bin in place so the sensor allows operation, and steady water flow. Fixing the root cause prevents repeat clogs, slow fills, and inconsistent cube size.
