Kenmore 59652673202 refrigerator Parts

On Kenmore side-by-side refrigerator model 59652673202, the model and serial number label is located inside the fresh food (refrigerator) compartment on the left interior wall. Use that sticker to record the exact model number and serial number for parts and service.

• Open the refrigerator (fresh food) door, not the freezer door
• Look along the left inside wall of the refrigerator section
• Check near the upper side wall area first, then scan downward
• Look for a sticker that lists Model and Serial
• Write both down exactly as shown (letters and numbers)

The sticker typically includes these fields:

We use the model number to match the correct Kenmore parts for your exact configuration (ice maker, dispenser, door style, and internal components). Using only the refrigerator “series” can lead to ordering the wrong gasket, valve, or filter housing.

If you are ordering water system parts, match the model number first, then confirm the part ID on the listing. For example, this model uses the Kenmore refrigerator water filter (9084) EDR4RXD1 when you need a replacement filter.

Kenmore side-by-side refrigerator model 59652673202 is a full-size, 33-inch class side-by-side refrigerator. For the exact cabinet width, height, and depth (including handles), match the dimensions listed for your specific configuration in the 59652673202 owner's manual.

Use these checks to get the right “fits in the opening” measurement for your kitchen:

• Measure width at the widest point (often the door hinges or handles).
• Measure height from floor to top of hinge cover (not just the cabinet).
• Measure depth three ways: cabinet only, to door front, and to handle tip.
• Confirm you have clearance for door swing and pull-out bins.
• If the refrigerator sits on rollers/leveling legs, verify it is leveled before final measuring.

Most Kenmore 33-inch class side-by-side units fall into these common ranges (your exact numbers can vary by trim and handle style):

Using the exact dimensions helps prevent delivery day surprises like doors that cannot open fully, a refrigerator that sticks out too far, or airflow clearance issues that can affect cooling performance.

• Ensures correct fit for door gaskets and dispenser components
• Prevents ordering the wrong water filter style or housing
• Helps match electrical parts to the correct wiring harness
• Speeds up troubleshooting using the right diagrams and instructions

If you are matching water filter parts for this model, use the manual instructions and the exact part ID when ordering, such as the Kenmore refrigerator water filter (9084) EDR4RXD1.

Most Kenmore refrigerators average 10 to 15 years of service life; a well-maintained Kenmore 59652673202 side-by-side can reach the upper end of that range when it is operated and maintained as described in the 59652673202 owner's manual.

Refrigerator lifespan depends most on compressor run time, airflow, door sealing, and how quickly small issues are repaired.

These actions reduce strain on the sealed system (compressor and refrigerant tubing) and help prevent nuisance failures.

• Keep airflow clear around the cabinet and vents; avoid blocking return vents with food packages.
• Clean dust from the condenser area regularly (more often with pets).
• Keep doors closing tightly; replace worn gaskets such as the gasket-ff W10840101 when you see gaps, tears, or persistent condensation.
• Fix water leaks quickly to prevent corrosion and electrical issues.
• Replace worn electrical wear items (for example, a sticking door switch like the refrigerator light switch W11396033).
• Follow the storage and operating guidance in the manual to avoid overloading shelves and restricting airflow.

A refrigerator that runs warmer than normal or runs constantly forces the compressor to work harder. That extra heat and run time is the most common path to shortened lifespan, higher energy use, and cooling complaints.

• Compressor runs almost nonstop and temperatures still drift
• Repeated icing on the evaporator area or frequent defrost problems
• Water leaks that return after basic fixes
• Doors will not seal even after hinge and gasket checks

The most common issues we see on Kenmore refrigerators like model 59652673202 are cooling problems, ice maker or water dispenser troubles, leaks, frost buildup, and unusual noises. Many of these trace back to airflow restrictions, dirty condenser coils, door sealing problems, or water supply pressure and filtration.

• Not cooling or warm temperatures: confirm controls are set correctly; clean condenser coils; avoid overcrowding so air can circulate.
• Runs too often: doors opened frequently, warm food added, dirty coils, or door gaskets not sealing.
• Ice maker slow or not making ice: allow 24 hours after startup or after emptying; replace the water filter; verify water pressure.
• Water dispenser weak or leaking: check household water pressure and the inlet valve.
• Frost buildup or moisture: door not closing fully, gasket not sealing, or high humidity.
• Noises (clicking, humming, buzzing): many sounds are normal; a compressor hum and solenoid/valve sounds can occur during operation.

The 59652673202 owner's manual calls out several frequent causes behind “warm,” “runs too frequently,” and “won’t operate” complaints:

If troubleshooting points to a failed component, these are common replacements for this model:

• Refrigerator adaptive defrost board W11227239 for defrost-related symptoms (frost buildup, warming after icing)
• Refrigerator valve WP12544002 for dispenser/ice maker fill problems tied to water flow
• Gasket-ff W10840101 if the fresh food door is not sealing properly
• Refrigerator freezer door gasket W10133491 if the freezer door is not sealing properly
• Kenmore refrigerator water filter (9084) EDR4RXD1 for slow flow, taste/odor, or ice maker fill issues

Cooling, ice, and leak complaints often share the same root causes: restricted airflow, poor door sealing, or inadequate water pressure (the manual notes 20 to 100 psi, with 35 psi minimum recommended when using a water filter). Fixing the underlying cause prevents repeat failures and helps the compressor run efficiently.

Yes, you can replace many parts on your Kenmore 59652673202 side-by-side refrigerator yourself, especially non-sealed-system items like light components, door gaskets, and dispenser trim. We follow the safety guidance in the 59652673202 owner's manual and recommend stopping if a repair goes beyond your skill level.

These repairs are typically DIY-friendly with basic hand tools and careful handling:

• Light-related parts such as the refrigerator light switch W11396033 or bulb replcmt W11447232
• Door sealing parts such as the gasket-ff W10840101 (fresh food door gasket)
• Small hardware (for example, screws and clamps) when you are reattaching panels or brackets
• Cosmetic covers (such as an ice maker cover) if access is straightforward
• Water filter changes (routine maintenance)

The manual’s safety section is clear: disconnect power before servicing and avoid unsafe electrical setups.

• Unplug the refrigerator by gripping the plug (not the cord)
• Do not use extension cords, two-prong adapters, or power strips
• Turn off the water supply if you are working on water lines, valves, or the filter housing
• Protect flooring before moving the refrigerator
• Keep screws organized so the correct fasteners go back in the right locations

Some work is higher risk, requires specialized tools, or involves sealed refrigeration components.

DIY replacement can restore cooling, lighting, and sealing performance quickly, but safe power disconnection and correct reassembly prevent shocks, leaks, and door-seal problems that can cause temperature swings.

In the Kenmore 59652673202 side-by-side refrigerator, the most commonly replaced parts are typically the ones that handle everyday wear, cooling airflow, defrosting, and water dispensing, such as door gaskets, water filters, inlet valves, and defrost components. For model-specific locations and service cautions, use the 59652673202 owner's manual.

• Refrigerator water filter: improves taste and helps protect the dispenser and ice maker from sediment buildup.
• Door gaskets: keep cold air in; worn seals cause warm spots, frost, and longer run times.
• Water inlet valve: controls water flow to the dispenser and ice maker.
• Defrost system parts (heater, control): prevent frost from choking airflow across the evaporator.
• Light and door switch parts: control interior lights and can affect door-ajar behavior.
• Airflow-related parts (fans, vents): keep temperatures even between compartments.

These are examples of commonly replaced items that match the Kenmore 59652673202 parts list:

• Confirm temperatures: freezer should be set cold enough for ice production (many units target about 0°F to 2°F).
• Check water pressure: most dispenser systems need 20 to 100 PSI; units with filters commonly perform best around 35 PSI or higher.
• Inspect for kinks in copper or plastic tubing; replace kinked tubing that will not straighten.
• Look for gasket gaps: close a dollar bill in the door; if it slides out easily, the seal is weak.
• Unplug before service: disconnect power by pulling the plug (not the cord) before accessing electrical parts.

Replacing the right “high-wear” part restores cooling efficiency, protects the sealed system from overwork, and prevents common secondary issues like frost buildup, leaks, and slow ice production.
