Kenmore 11026132413 washer Parts

Kenmore washer model 11026132413 is a top-loading high efficiency, low-water washer; its exact tub capacity in cubic feet is listed in the product specifications section of the 11026132413 owner's manual.

Look for a section labeled Specifications, Dimensions and capacity, or Product data. Capacity is typically shown as “cu. ft.”.

• Open the specs section first (often near the front or back)
• Check for “Capacity” or “Washer capacity”
• If you see multiple capacities, use the one labeled washer (not basket volume for shipping)
• Match the model number exactly: 11026132413
• If the manual lists a model family, use the entry that matches your full model number

This model family is a high efficiency top-load design. Most washers in this category commonly fall in this range:

Capacity affects how much laundry you can wash per load and how you should load the basket. Overloading can reduce cleaning performance and contribute to out-of-balance spinning, while underloading can waste water and energy.

If you are checking capacity because loads are going out of balance, we recommend reviewing Kenmore 110 vmw top load washer error codes for common imbalance-related codes and fixes.

To hard reset your Kenmore washer model 11026132413, we recommend a full power-down reset: unplug the washer and let it sit long enough for the control to fully shut down, then restore power and restart a cycle. This clears many control glitches and communication errors.

• Press Start/Pause/Unlock Lid once to stop the cycle.
• Unplug the washer (or switch off the breaker).
• Wait 5 minutes so the washer can completely power down.
• Plug the washer back in (or turn the breaker on).
• Select a cycle and touch and hold Start/Pause/Unlock Lid to restart.

For button behavior, cycle status lights, and lid lock details, follow the steps in the 11026132413 owner's manual.

Many Kenmore top-load models will let you clear a displayed F## code by stopping the cycle, then restarting.

• Touch Start/Pause/Unlock Lid once to clear the code.
• Touch Start/Pause/Unlock Lid again to restart.
• If the code returns right away, the issue is usually not a “reset” problem; it points to a component or control fault.

• Lid not closing cleanly or something is under the lid
• Load is off-balance, causing repeated stops during spin
• Drain problem (water not pumping out) that prevents spin
• Control or lid lock problem that returns immediately after reset

If the washer will not lock or unlock reliably, a failed lid lock can cause repeated interruptions; the model uses a lid lock system like the washer lid lock assembly W10810403.

A proper hard reset fully discharges the control so it can reinitialize. That is especially important after a power interruption or when the washer shows a communication error and needs a complete shutdown before it will run normally.

Your Kenmore washer model number is printed on the appliance’s model and serial tag; on Kenmore top-load washers like model 11026132413, it’s most often found under the lid opening or on the back of the cabinet. Once you have the full model number, we can match the correct Kenmore washer parts and diagrams.

Check these common locations first:

• Under the lid, around the tub opening (top-load models)
• On the back panel of the washer cabinet
• Along the rear edge of the control console area
• Inside the lid area near the hinge (varies by design)

For model-specific labeling and documentation, use the 11026132413 owner's manual.

Kenmore washer model numbers are typically a long numeric string; many start with 110. Using the exact model number helps us avoid ordering a similar-looking part that will not fit (for example, a lid lock or drain pump that uses different connectors).

• Write the model number exactly as shown (include all digits)
• Record the serial number too (helps with production variations)
• Take a clear photo of the tag before it fades
• Use the model number when searching parts like a lid lock, washplate, or water valve

Kenmore washers share many designs across model families; the exact model number ensures the right fit for key components such as the washer lid lock assembly W10810403 or washer drain pump W10876600.

A Kenmore washer typically lasts 10 to 15 years with normal household use. For Kenmore model 11026132413 (a top-loading high efficiency, low-water washer), using HE detergent, avoiding overloads, and fixing small issues early helps you reach the longer end of that range; see the 11026132413 use and care guide.

• Load size and balance: frequent overloading or unbalanced loads increases wear on the drive and suspension.
• Detergent choice: use HE (high efficiency) detergent to reduce oversudsing and residue.
• Drain performance: slow draining strains the pump and can leave standing water.
• Water fill and temperature control: restricted inlet flow can cause longer cycles and extra stress.
• Vibration control: persistent shaking accelerates wear on dampers and the tub system.

Knowing the typical 10 to 15 year lifespan helps you decide whether to repair or replace. If your 11026132413 is within that window, replacing a common failure part (like a lid lock, drain pump, or damper assembly) often restores reliable performance for years.

• Keep loads evenly distributed (mix large and small items).
• Use the right amount of HE detergent.
• Leave the lid open between loads to help the tub dry.
• Check pockets to prevent coins and debris from damaging the drain system.
• Address new noises, leaks, or vibration early before they cascade into bigger repairs.

The “Kenmore Elite Smartwash Quiet Pack 4” name is a marketing description, not a single universal model number. For Kenmore washers, the true model number is the 110.xxxxxxxxx format printed on the washer’s model and serial tag; confirm it against the 11026132413 owner’s manual format and your unit’s tag.

On most Kenmore top-load washers, the model and serial tag is typically located in one of these spots:

• Under the lid, around the lid opening (top rim)
• On the rear of the control console (behind the panel)
• On the back of the washer cabinet
• Inside the lid area near the hinge

Use this quick checklist so you match the correct parts list and instructions:

• The model number should start with 110 for many Kenmore-built-by-Whirlpool washers
• Copy the full number exactly (all digits, no spaces)
• Match the model number on the tag to the model number shown on your parts page
• Use the manual to confirm the product family and features (high efficiency, low-water, top-load)

Kenmore “Quiet Pack” packages can share similar styling across multiple model numbers, but parts like the lid lock, drive system, and washplate can vary. Using the exact model number helps ensure correct fit and avoids repeat repairs.
