Kenmore Elite 79572093310 refrigerator Parts

Yes. On Kenmore Elite refrigerator model 79572093310, unplugging the refrigerator briefly resets power to the ice maker and can clear a temporary control glitch. Plug it back in, then allow time for the freezer to reach temperature and for the ice maker to cycle and refill.

Recommended reset steps

• Unplug the refrigerator (or switch the breaker off).
• Wait 1 minute.
• Restore power.
• Confirm the freezer is set cold enough (most units make ice best at 0°F to 5°F).
• Wait 2 to 4 hours to see new ice production (a full bin can take 24 to 48 hours).
• If the ice maker was turned off, make sure the ice maker switch or arm is in the ON position.

What to check if it still will not make ice

If a power reset does not help, the issue is usually water supply, temperature, or an ice maker component.

What you see	Most common cause	What to do next
No ice at all	Freezer too warm	Verify door closes tightly, reduce set temp, avoid overpacking vents
Small or hollow cubes	Restricted water flow	Replace the filter, check for kinked water line
Ice maker cycles but no fill	Water supply problem	Confirm shutoff valve is open and household water pressure is steady
Ice clumps or jams	Ice buildup in bin or chute	Empty bin, break up clumps, check dispenser door movement

Parts that commonly affect ice production on this model

• Genuine Kenmore refrigerator water filter 9690 AGF80300801 (clogged filters reduce or stop water flow)
• Refrigerator water tubing MJU62070602 (kinks, freezing, or leaks can prevent filling)
• Ice maker assembly AEQ73110203 (failed module, motor, or internal thermostat can stop cycling)

Why it matters

A quick unplug reset is a safe first step because it restores normal control operation without disassembly. If the freezer is warm or water flow is restricted, the ice maker will not harvest or refill even after a reset.

Kenmore Elite refrigerators typically last 12 to 15 years. With consistent care on your Kenmore Elite model 79572093310 (especially keeping airflow clear and seals tight), it’s common to reach the upper end of that range before major cooling-system repairs become likely.

Typical lifespan and what affects it

Most refrigerator life is driven by how hard the sealed system and fans have to work.

• Maintenance habits: cleaning dust from the condenser area, keeping vents clear
• Door seal condition: worn gaskets cause longer run times and temperature swings
• Ice maker and dispenser use: heavy use increases wear on moving parts
• Room conditions: hot garages and tight cabinets shorten life
• Power quality: frequent outages or surges stress the control board and compressor

Quick maintenance checklist (adds years)

Use this as a simple routine for a bottom-mount Kenmore Elite refrigerator:

• Vacuum and brush the condenser area every 6 to 12 months
• Confirm doors close easily and stay shut; adjust leveling if needed
• Clean and inspect door gaskets; replace if torn or permanently warped
• Replace the water filter on schedule to protect water flow and taste
• Keep the freezer drawer tracks clean so the drawer seals fully

Common “repair vs. replace” guide

This table helps decide when a repair makes sense.

If your refrigerator is…	And the issue is…	Typical best move
Under 8 years	Ice maker, dispenser, gasket, fan noise	Repair is usually worth it
8 to 12 years	Repeated temperature swings, frequent service calls	Compare repair cost to replacement
Over 12 years	Compressor or sealed-system problem	Replacement is often the better value

Parts that often matter most over time

These are common wear items that affect performance and day-to-day reliability:

• Water filtration: genuine Kenmore refrigerator water filter 9690 AGF80300801
• Door sealing: refrigerator door gasket, right ADX72930461
• Odor control and airflow: lg refrigerator air filter ADQ73214408

Why it matters

A refrigerator that runs longer to hold temperature uses more electricity and puts extra strain on the compressor, evaporator fan, and control board. Simple upkeep and timely part replacement help your 79572093310 cool evenly and avoid premature failures.

On Kenmore Elite refrigerators like model 79572093310, the model number is printed on a rating label inside the fresh food (refrigerator) compartment. We most often see it on a side wall near the crisper drawers, or on the cabinet frame just inside a door.

Common places to check first

• Inside the refrigerator compartment on the left or right interior wall
• On the cabinet frame just inside the fresh food door opening
• Behind or above the crisper drawers (you may need to slide drawers out)
• On the back exterior panel of the refrigerator
• Near the lower front area behind the toe grille (kick plate)

Quick steps to find it fast

1. Open both refrigerator doors and scan the cabinet frame around the door opening.
2. Look along the side walls at about crisper height.
3. Pull the crisper drawers out and check the wall behind them.
4. If you still do not see it, remove the toe grille and look for a label near the bottom front.
5. Confirm the full model number exactly as printed (including all digits).

What the label looks like (and what to write down)

The label usually includes several identifiers. Use this table to capture what we need for parts lookup and troubleshooting.

Label item	What it’s used for	Example format
Model number	Correct parts and diagrams	79572093310
Serial number	Production date and service history	Letters and numbers
Electrical ratings	Outlet and circuit checks	Volts/amps

Why it matters

We use the exact model number to match the correct Kenmore parts (like a water filter, door gasket, or ice maker assembly) because small model variations can change shelves, bins, and electronic control board versions.

Water leaking from the bottom of your Kenmore Elite refrigerator model 79572093310 is usually caused by a clogged defrost drain that overflows into the base, or a water supply leak from the dispenser/ice maker tubing. Less often, a door seal issue creates heavy frost that later melts and spills. See the 79572093310 owner's manual for your model’s drain and water system locations.

Quick checks that solve most bottom leaks

• Look for ice or standing water on the freezer floor; that points to a defrost drain clog.
• Check the water filter area for drips after dispensing; a loose filter can seep.
• Inspect the water line and fittings behind the refrigerator for slow leaks.
• Check the door gaskets for gaps, tears, or areas that do not seal.
• Confirm the refrigerator is level; a forward tilt can encourage water to run out the front.

Most common causes and what to do

What you see	Most likely cause	What we recommend
Water under crisper, puddle near front	Defrost drain partially clogged	Clear the drain path; flush with warm water and remove debris/ice
Water only after using dispenser	Filter not seated or tubing connection leaking	Reseat the filter; inspect tubing and fittings
Water in freezer bottom, sheet of ice	Drain frozen from frost buildup	Defrost the drain area; verify doors seal tightly
Drips at right door edge	Door gasket not sealing	Clean and warm the gasket; replace if torn

Parts that commonly relate to this symptom

If you find the leak is coming from the water system, these model-matched parts are often involved:

• Refrigerator water tubing MJU62070602 (cracks, pinholes, or loose connections)
• Genuine Kenmore refrigerator water filter 9690 AGF80300801 (leaks if not fully seated or if the housing O-ring is damaged)
• Refrigerator door gasket, right ADX72930461 (warm air leaks can create excess frost and meltwater)

Why it matters

Bottom leaks can damage flooring and also lead to ice buildup around the evaporator area, which reduces airflow and cooling performance. Fixing the source early helps protect the compressor and keeps temperatures stable.

When a Kenmore Elite refrigerator model 79572093310 is warm at the bottom, the most common cause is poor airflow: blocked vents, frost buildup, or a fan or coil issue that keeps cold air from circulating down into the fresh food section. Start with vent and airflow checks first.

Quick checks we recommend first

• Make sure food packages are not blocking the return vents in the refrigerator section.
• Confirm the freezer is cold; bottom-mount designs rely on freezer cooling and airflow to chill the refrigerator.
• Set temperatures back to normal if they were changed (avoid the warmest settings).
• Listen for the evaporator fan running when the doors are closed (a steady fan sound is normal).
• Check door closure and gasket sealing; warm air leaks create temperature stratification.

Likely causes and what to do

Symptom	Most likely cause	What to do next
Top shelves cool, bottom warm	Blocked vents or overloaded shelves	Clear space around vents; reorganize for airflow
Bottom warm, freezer cold, fan noisy	Frost or airflow restriction at evaporator cover	Defrost and inspect airflow paths per the 79572093310 owner's manual
Both sections warming over time	Dirty condenser coil or weak condenser airflow	Clean the condenser area; inspect for dust buildup
Warm near door bins and bottom	Door not sealing well	Inspect and reshape/replace gasket if needed

Parts that commonly relate to bottom-warm complaints

If the basic airflow checks do not fix it, these model-matched parts are often involved:

• Refrigerator condenser coil ACG73645004 if the condenser is clogged or damaged
• Refrigerator defrost sensor assembly 6615JB2005R if frost buildup keeps air from moving
• Refrigerator fresh food fan motor assembly EAU65089701 if the refrigerator section is not circulating air
• Refrigerator door gasket, right ADX72930461 if warm air is leaking in

Why it matters

Bottom-warm conditions usually mean cold air is not circulating correctly. That can lead to unsafe food temperatures, excess frost, longer run times, and added strain on the compressor.
