Kenmore 10651799413 side-by-side refrigerator Parts

Kenmore Elite is a product line, not a single refrigerator size. For your Kenmore side-by-side refrigerator model 10651799413, the exact cubic-foot capacity is listed on the model’s rating label and in the 10651799413 owner's manual; we use those two sources to match the correct capacity for your specific unit.

How to find the exact capacity for model 10651799413

Check these two places; both are reliable for your exact configuration:

• Owner’s manual: look in the “Product specifications” or “Features and specifications” section in the 10651799413 owner's manual
• Rating label: typically inside the fresh food compartment on a side wall, near the crisper area, or along the door frame
• Model tag confirmation: verify the full model number is 10651799413 (not a similar 106-series model)
• Measure for fit (optional): use cabinet width, height, and depth to confirm it matches your kitchen opening

Why the answer varies by “Kenmore Elite”

“Kenmore Elite” covers multiple refrigerator styles (side-by-side, French door, bottom freezer) and multiple capacities. Two Kenmore Elite models can differ by several cubic feet even if they look similar.

Quick reference: what “capacity” means

Term	What it describes	Why it matters
Total capacity (cu. ft.)	Fresh food + freezer combined	Helps compare overall storage space
Refrigerator capacity	Fresh food section only	Impacts everyday food storage
Freezer capacity	Freezer section only	Impacts frozen food and ice storage

Related tip if you are comparing models

If you are comparing your 10651799413 to another Kenmore Elite model, match by model number first, then compare capacity. When you are maintaining performance (ice and water quality), replacing the water filter on schedule also helps; the Kenmore refrigerator water filter 9081 is a common maintenance item for this model family.

Why it matters

Capacity affects how you organize airflow around shelves and bins, and it can influence cooling consistency if the refrigerator is overpacked.

Most Kenmore side-by-side refrigerators are about 32 to 36 inches wide; for the exact cabinet width of model 10651799413, we list the official dimensions in the 10651799413 owner's manual.

Typical widths you’ll see (and what they mean)

Side-by-side refrigerator width depends on capacity, door style, and whether it’s standard-depth or counter-depth.

• 32 to 33 inches: narrower cabinets, tighter kitchens
• 35 to 36 inches: most common full-size side-by-side width
• 36 inches+: larger capacity or premium configurations
• Add clearance for door swing and airflow (width is not the same as required opening)

Measure the space the right way

We recommend measuring both the refrigerator and the opening so you avoid door and installation issues.

• Measure the cabinet width (box only, not handles)
• Measure overall width including handles (often adds about 1 to 2 inches)
• Check door swing clearance so doors open past 90 degrees if needed
• Confirm rear and top ventilation clearance
• Measure pathways (doorways, hallways) for delivery

Quick reference: width vs. fit

What you’re checking	Why it matters	What to use
Cabinet width	Determines basic fit in the cutout	Manual spec and tape measure
Width with handles	Prevents surprises with protruding handles	Tape measure
Required opening	Ensures doors open and unit can breathe	Manual clearance guidance

Why it matters

Even a 1-inch mismatch can prevent installation or limit door opening, which affects access to shelves, the ice bin, and the water dispenser area.

Related maintenance tip while you’re planning space

If you’re moving the refrigerator or shutting off water during install, it’s a good time to replace the water filter; model 10651799413 uses the refrigerator water filter 9081. You can also search parts by model on Sears PartsDirect.

For Kenmore model 10651799413, start troubleshooting by identifying the symptom (not cooling, ice maker not working, water not dispensing, noise, or leaks), then check the simplest causes first: power, temperature settings, airflow, and frost buildup. Use the owner's manual for model-specific control settings and diagnostic steps.

Quick checks (do these first)

• Confirm the refrigerator has power; interior lights and fans should run when doors are closed.
• Verify temperature settings; set fresh food to about 37°F and freezer to about 0°F.
• Make sure vents are not blocked by food packages; restricted airflow causes warm temps.
• Clean the condenser area; dust buildup raises temperatures and run time.
• Check door seals for gaps and make sure doors close fully.

Troubleshoot by symptom

Not cooling or weak cooling

• Listen for the evaporator fan in the freezer; if it is not running, airflow stops.
• Look for heavy frost on the freezer back panel; that points to a defrost problem.
• If the compressor runs constantly and temps stay warm, the sealed system may need service.

Helpful parts to consider when symptoms match:

• Refrigerator evaporator fan WPW10236142 (no/weak airflow)
• Refrigerator defrost heater WPW10495967 (frost buildup)
• Refrigerator defrost bi-metal thermostat WPW10225581 (defrost not cycling)

Ice maker not making ice

• Confirm the freezer is at 0°F; warmer temps stop ice production.
• Make sure the ice bin is seated and the ice door is closing.
• If water supply is good but no ice cycles, the ice maker assembly is a common fix.

Parts often involved:

Symptom	Most likely area	Example part on this model
No ice, no harvest cycle	Ice maker module	Refrigerator ice maker assembly WPW10300022
Ice clumps, dispensing issues	Ice bin/door	Refrigerator ice container WPW10558424

Water tastes bad or flow is slow

• Replace the water filter on schedule; a clogged filter reduces flow.
• After replacing, flush several gallons to clear air and carbon fines.

Part for this model:

• Refrigerator water filter 9081

Why it matters

Troubleshooting in a simple-to-advanced order prevents unnecessary part replacement and helps you pinpoint whether the issue is airflow (fans/defrost), water supply (filter/tubing), or controls (electronic board).
