Kenmore 10658123700 refrigerator Parts

Most Kenmore side-by-side refrigerators are about 33 inches to 36 inches wide; your Kenmore 10658123700 falls in that common size class. For the exact cabinet width and required clearances for your specific unit, use the measurements and spacing guidance in the 10658123700 owner's manual.

Typical width ranges (what you can expect)

Kenmore side-by-side models are commonly built in a few standard widths. Use this to plan space, then confirm the exact spec in your manual.

• 33 in. class: common for smaller side-by-sides
• 35 to 36 in. class: most common full-size side-by-sides
• 42 in. class: less common, built-in style units

Refrigerator type	Typical width	Best use
Side-by-side (standard)	33 to 36 in.	Most kitchens and replacement installs
Side-by-side (built-in style)	~42 in.	Custom cabinetry openings

Don’t forget installation clearance

Width is only part of fit. The manual for this model calls out ventilation and swing space so doors open fully and airflow stays correct.

• Plan 1/2 inch clearance on each side and at the top for ventilation
• If installed next to a fixed wall, allow about 2 inches minimum on the hinge side (varies by setup) so the door can swing
• Leave extra room behind the refrigerator if you have an ice maker water line
• Measure at the widest point (handles and door bins can add space)
• Confirm the opening is square (older cabinets can be out of plumb)

Why it matters

If the opening is too tight, doors may not open fully, drawers can hit, and restricted airflow can reduce cooling performance and increase compressor run time.

Parts that often come up during a fit or refresh

If you are reinstalling after a move or updating storage, these model-compatible parts are commonly replaced.

• Refrigerator door cam (black) WP2182179 (helps the door close and align)
• Refrigerator crisper pan WP2188656 (fresh food drawer replacement)

On Kenmore model 10658123700 side-by-side refrigerators, the model number is printed on the appliance identification label (the same label that lists the serial number). You typically find this label inside the fresh food compartment on a side wall or near the top opening; confirm the exact spot in the owner's manual.

Common places to check first

Look for a white or silver sticker with a barcode and a MODEL field.

• Inside the refrigerator compartment on the left or right wall
• Near the ceiling of the refrigerator compartment (just inside the door opening)
• Behind or beside the crisper drawers (on the liner wall)
• On the hinge-side door frame area (refrigerator side)
• If you cannot find it inside, check the rear exterior panel area near the cord (less common)

What the label looks like (quick ID)

The label usually includes both the model and serial information.

Label item	What it tells you	Why you need it
Model number	The exact configuration (shelves, dispenser, ice maker setup)	Ensures you get the right parts list and diagrams
Serial number	Production code and build details	Helps match revisions when ordering certain parts

Why it matters

Kenmore side-by-side refrigerators often have multiple versions that look similar. Using the exact model number (10658123700) prevents ordering the wrong water filter, ice maker, or dispenser parts.

Ordering parts once you have the model number

After you confirm the model number, you can order parts from the parts list for this model, or search by model on Sears PartsDirect. Common examples for this model include the genuine Kenmore refrigerator water filter EDR3RXD1 and the refrigerator ice maker WPW10190965.

For your Kenmore 10658123700 side-by-side refrigerator, the most reliable way to confirm cubic feet is to check the model’s rating plate inside the fresh food compartment; it typically lists the refrigerator’s total capacity (often shown as “Total volume” or “Cu. Ft.”). Use the 10658123700 owner's manual to help locate the rating plate and interpret the label.

Fast ways to find the cubic feet

• Check the rating plate inside the refrigerator section (commonly on a side wall, ceiling area, or behind/near the crisper drawers).
• Look for wording such as “Total volume,” “Total capacity,” or “Cu. Ft.”
• Record the full model number (10658123700) from the same label; it helps match the correct specs and parts.
• Use a measurement backup if the label is missing or unreadable (steps below).

Measuring capacity (backup method)

If you cannot read the rating plate, we use this quick estimate:

1. Measure the usable interior of the fresh food section and freezer section separately (in inches): height × width × depth.
2. Multiply to get cubic inches for each section.
3. Add both sections together.
4. Divide by 1,728 to convert cubic inches to cubic feet.

Quick conversion table

What you have	What to do	Result
Interior measurements in inches	H × W × D	Cubic inches
Cubic inches	Divide by 1,728	Cubic feet

Why it matters

Knowing cubic feet helps us choose correctly sized replacement items and maintenance parts (like a refrigerator water filter), and it also helps when comparing storage capacity, shelf layout, and airflow needs after repairs.

A bad compressor on your Kenmore 10658123700 side-by-side refrigerator usually shows up as poor cooling with long run times, repeated clicking, or unusual compressor sounds. Before condemning the compressor, we verify power, control settings, airflow, and normal operating noises listed in the owner's manual.

Quick checks before blaming the compressor

Many “compressor” complaints are caused by power, settings, or airflow issues.

• Confirm the refrigerator is plugged into a grounded 3-prong outlet and the outlet works.
• Check the house fuse or circuit breaker.
• Make sure the temperature controls are turned on (not set to Off).
• If it is a new install or was recently moved, allow 24 hours to cool completely.
• Listen for normal sounds: buzzing (ice maker fill), pulsating (compressor/fans adjusting), rattling (refrigerant flow).
• Make sure doors are closing fully; frequent door openings can make the unit run longer.

Symptoms that strongly point to a compressor or start system problem

These signs are more consistent with a compressor that is not starting or not pumping.

What you notice	What it often means	What to check next
Repeated clicking every few minutes, little or no cooling	Compressor trying to start then tripping	Start device and electrical supply; sealed system diagnosis if needed
Fridge runs “all the time” but temperatures stay warm	Not enough refrigerant flow or poor heat exchange	Condenser cleanliness, fans, sealed system evaluation
Compressor is very hot and cooling is weak	Overload cycling or high load	Airflow, condenser, fan operation, door seals
Compressor is quiet and nothing cools	Not running at all	Power, controls, start components

Parts that are commonly involved

On this model, compressor-related repairs often involve more than the compressor itself.

• Refrigerator compressor W10309990 (the pump that circulates refrigerant)
• Run capacitor WPW10662129 (helps the compressor start and run efficiently)
• Drier w/dye WPW10143759 (part of the sealed system; replaced during certain sealed-system repairs)

Why it matters

A compressor replacement is a major repair. Ruling out normal “new refrigerator” sounds, power issues, and control settings first prevents unnecessary parts replacement and gets you to the real cause faster.

If you decide to replace parts, we recommend ordering by the Kenmore 10658123700 parts list on this page, or searching by model on Sears PartsDirect.

The most common problems we see on Kenmore refrigerators like model 10658123700 are poor cooling, water leaks, ice maker or dispenser issues, and unusual noises. These problems usually trace back to airflow restrictions (dirty coils or a failed fan), defrost system trouble, or worn water system components; use the 10658123700 owner's manual troubleshooting section to narrow it down fast.

Most common symptoms and what they usually mean

• Not cooling or warm temperatures: dirty condenser coils, evaporator fan issue, or defrost ice buildup
• Water leaking or puddles: clogged defrost drain, loose water line, or a leaking inlet valve
• Ice maker not making ice: low water pressure, frozen fill tube, bad inlet valve, or ice maker failure
• Water dispenser slow or not dispensing: clogged filter, air in the line after a filter change, or inlet valve problem
• Noises (buzzing, clicking, rattling): fan blade hitting ice, failing fan motor, or compressor start components

Quick checks we recommend before replacing parts

1. Confirm temperatures: set refrigerator to about 37°F and freezer to about 0°F.
2. Clean condenser coils: restricted airflow is a top cause of warm temps and long run times.
3. Check door sealing: look for gaps, torn gasket areas, or doors not closing fully.
4. Look for frost buildup on the freezer back panel (often points to a defrost problem).
5. If you recently changed the water filter: flush the system; the manual specifically calls out flushing after a filter change.

Parts that commonly solve these problems (when diagnosis points there)

Symptom	Common suspect part	Example part for 10658123700
No water or no ice	Water inlet valve	Refrigerator water inlet valve W10408179
Ice maker dead or inconsistent	Ice maker assembly	Refrigerator ice maker WPW10190965
Water tastes bad or flow is weak	Water filter	Genuine Kenmore refrigerator water filter EDR3RXD1
Frost buildup, warm fridge	Defrost control components	Refrigerator defrost bi-metal WPW10225581

Why it matters

Catching airflow, defrost, and water-supply issues early helps prevent food spoilage, reduces compressor run time, and avoids secondary damage like ice buildup around the evaporator fan.
