Kenmore 10658022801 side-by-side refrigerator Parts

On a Kenmore side-by-side refrigerator like model 10658022801, the model number is printed on the appliance identification label (the same label that lists the serial number). Use the label to match parts and confirm the correct manual for your exact unit; see the 10658022801 owner's manual.

We typically see the model and serial label in one of these spots:

• Inside the fresh food compartment on a side wall near the top
• On the ceiling of the fresh food compartment near the light housing
• Behind the crisper drawers on an interior wall
• On the hinge-side door jamb area (fresh food door)
• On the back exterior panel (less common, but possible)

The label usually includes both a model number and a serial number. Write down both exactly as shown.

Kenmore refrigerators can have similar-looking doors, shelves, ice makers, and water filter housings across multiple models. Using the exact model number helps us match the right parts the first time, such as the genuine Kenmore refrigerator water filter EDR3RXD1 or the refrigerator ice maker 2198597.

• Confirm the model number from the label, not from the front badge
• Match the full model number character-for-character
• Use the model number to cross-check diagrams and part descriptions

To find the size of your Kenmore 10658022801 refrigerator, we use the cabinet dimensions (height, width, depth) for fit, and we use cubic feet (volume) for storage capacity. The most accurate dimensions and capacity for your exact model are listed in the owner's manual.

Most customers mean one of these:

• Overall dimensions: helps you confirm the refrigerator fits your kitchen opening
• Cabinet opening needed: includes clearance for ventilation and door swing
• Storage capacity (cubic feet): how much food it holds

1. Measure width across the front (door closed).
2. Measure height from floor to top hinge cover (or top of cabinet).
3. Measure depth from the back to the front (note handles can add depth).

Our Kenmore side-by-side refrigerators typically need:

• 1/2 inch of space on each side and at the top for ventilation
• At least 2 inches on the hinge side(s) when next to a fixed wall so doors can swing open
• Extra space behind the unit if you have an ice maker, for the water line connection

(These clearances are called out in the owner's manual.)

If you want a rough capacity estimate:

• Measure the interior (not the outside) of the fresh food and freezer compartments
• Multiply height x width x depth (in inches) for each compartment
• Add the two totals together
• Divide by 1,728 to convert cubic inches to cubic feet

Using the right “size” prevents installation headaches (tight cabinet openings, doors that will not swing fully) and helps you compare capacity realistically when replacing a refrigerator.

The SY EF code on a Kenmore refrigerator indicates a problem with the evaporator fan circuit, most often the evaporator fan motor not running or feedback from the fan not being detected. On model 10658022801, this typically shows up with warm temperatures, weak airflow, or unusual noise from the freezer area.

• Power reset: Unplug the refrigerator for 5 minutes, then restore power and watch for the fan to start.
• Listen for the evaporator fan: With the freezer door switch held closed, you should usually hear the fan running.
• Look for heavy frost on the freezer back wall: Frost buildup can block airflow and stop the fan.
• Check vents and loading: Make sure packages are not blocking freezer air vents.
• Inspect the door switch: A failed switch can keep the fan off when the control thinks the door is open.

For model-specific component locations and access steps, use the owner's manual.

If you determine the fan motor is not running and has power, the refrigerator evaporator fan motor WP2315549 is a common replacement for this model.

The evaporator fan moves cold air through both compartments. When it stops, temperatures rise, food can spoil, and the compressor may run longer than normal. Fixing the airflow issue quickly helps protect the sealed system and improves cooling performance.

If your Kenmore 10658022801 side-by-side refrigerator ice maker isn’t making ice, the most common causes are the ice maker being switched OFF, a closed water shutoff valve, a kinked water line, or a freezer temperature issue. Start with the on/off switch and water supply checks in the owner's manual.

• Confirm the ice maker switch is ON (top right side of the freezer compartment).
• Make sure the household water shutoff valve is fully open.
• Inspect the water supply line for kinks or pinches; straighten as needed.
• If this is a new install or the ice maker was just turned on, wait 24 hours for first ice and up to 72 hours for full production.
• If the ice bin is full, the optical sensor can stop production automatically; empty some ice and try again.
• Look for a cube jammed in the ejector area; clear it carefully.

Low water flow can stop ice production or cause small cubes.

• If the dispenser flow is weak, the ice maker usually struggles too.
• Replace an overdue filter and flush the system; a clogged filter restricts flow.
• If you recently replaced the filter, discard the first three batches of ice to clear impurities.

Common related parts for this model

If the freezer is too warm, the ice maker will not cycle. If airflow is blocked by frost, ice production can drop.

• Check for heavy frost on the freezer back wall (possible defrost issue).
• Listen for the evaporator fan; if it is not running, cold air will not circulate well.

If you suspect airflow problems, we recommend following the troubleshooting steps in how to fix your evaporator cooling fan.

An ice maker depends on two things: cold enough freezer temperatures and steady water flow. Fixing the root cause prevents repeat clogs, weak cubes, and dispenser issues.

On Kenmore side-by-side refrigerator model 10658022801, the water filter is located in the base grille below the freezer compartment door. You remove it from the front by pressing the eject button and pulling the filter straight out by the cap (no grille removal needed). See the owner's manual.

• Go to the front bottom of the refrigerator
• Look at the base grille area under the freezer door
• Find the filter cap and eject button
• Press the eject button, then pull straight out on the cap
• Expect a small amount of water to spill from the old filter

The cap is part of the refrigerator and must be reused.

• Turn the cap counterclockwise to remove it from the old filter
• Keep the cap and install it on the new filter
• Push the new filter in until it fully seats and the eject button pops out
• Pull gently on the cap to confirm it is locked in place

Knowing the exact filter location helps prevent cracked caps, damaged O-rings, and leaks. Pulling the cartridge straight out (instead of twisting) also makes filter changes faster and cleaner.

• If you need the replacement cartridge used for this model, use genuine Kenmore refrigerator water filter EDR3RXD1.
• For step-by-step filter change tips and what to do after replacement (flushing, reset habits), use how to replace the water filter in a Kenmore refrigerator.
