Kenmore 10658122700 refrigerator Parts

On Kenmore model 10658122700 side-by-side refrigerators, the model number is printed on the appliance identification label inside the fresh food (refrigerator) compartment. Open the refrigerator door and look along the interior walls near the top, or around the door opening. Confirm the exact location in the 10658122700 owner's manual.

Look for a white or silver sticker that lists MODEL and SERIAL.

• Inside the refrigerator compartment on the side wall (upper left or upper right)
• On the ceiling of the refrigerator compartment near the light housing
• Along the door jamb (the frame area the door seals against)
• Behind the crisper drawers on the side wall (less common)
• On the back exterior panel (backup location on some units)

The label usually includes both numbers; we recommend copying them exactly.

Using the correct model number prevents ordering the wrong Kenmore refrigerator parts (like a water filter, ice maker, or door cam). Even small model-number differences can change which parts fit and which repair instructions apply.

Most Kenmore side-by-side refrigerators are about 33 inches to 36 inches wide; your Kenmore 10658122700 falls in that common size range. For the exact cabinet width and required clearances for your specific unit, use the measurements section in the 10658122700 owner's manual.

Side-by-side refrigerators are usually built in a few standard widths. Use this as a planning guide for doorways, alcoves, and cabinetry.

• 33 in. class: common for tighter kitchens
• 36 in. class: most common “full-size” side-by-side
• 42 in. class: larger premium models (less common)
• Add space for doors and handles when checking fit
• Plan for airflow space at the sides and top

Your manual calls out ventilation and swing clearance that affects the real-world space you need, even when the cabinet width fits.

• Allow 1/2 inch space on each side and at the top for ventilation
• If installed next to a fixed wall, allow 2 inches minimum on the hinge side (varies by setup) so the door can swing open
• If the refrigerator has an ice maker, allow extra space behind for the water line

For the exact diagram and any model-specific notes, follow the installation section in the 10658122700 owner's manual.

Width alone does not prevent fit problems; door swing, handle depth, and ventilation clearances determine whether the refrigerator will install correctly and cool efficiently.

Kenmore model numbers are structured so the first 3 digits identify the manufacturer, the next set of digits identifies the base design, and the remaining digits show the specific variation. For your Kenmore refrigerator model 10658122700, the 106 prefix is the key identifier when matching parts.

Most Kenmore model numbers follow this pattern:

• Prefix (first 3 digits): manufacturer code (used to route you to the correct parts system)
• Middle digits: base model or platform (shared design across similar units)
• Ending digits: feature, color, or production variation (small differences that can change parts)

When ordering parts for a side-by-side refrigerator like 10658122700, we use the full model number because small suffix changes can affect fit.

• Copy the model number exactly as shown on the label
• Use the full number when searching parts diagrams
• Match the part by part ID and description, not by appearance alone
• Confirm whether the part is for the refrigerator side or freezer side
• Use the manual to confirm locations and basic operation details

The manual notes that the model and serial number label is located on the product. Use the label (not the front badge) so the number is exact. See the 10658122700 owner's manual for the “Product Record” section and label guidance.

Kenmore refrigerators often share a similar look across multiple model variations; the model number is what ensures the correct water filter, ice maker, thermostat, or door hardware matches your exact build.

Most Kenmore refrigerators last 12 to 15 years. For the Kenmore 10658122700 side-by-side refrigerator, keeping airflow clear, cleaning the condenser area, and staying on top of routine care in the 10658122700 owner's manual helps you reach that typical service life.

A refrigerator’s lifespan depends most on heat removal, door sealing, and how hard the sealed system has to work.

• Ventilation: blocked toe-kick or tight cabinetry traps heat
• Condenser cleanliness: dust and pet hair raise compressor run time
• Door gasket condition: air leaks cause longer run cycles and frost
• Ice and water system upkeep: clogs and leaks add strain and mess
• Temperature settings: overly cold settings increase run time

Use this as a simple routine for a side-by-side like model 10658122700:

• Vacuum dust from the grille and condenser area (as accessible)
• Keep food from blocking interior air vents
• Wipe door gaskets clean; confirm the doors close fully
• Replace the water filter on schedule; use the correct filter for fit and flow
• Level the refrigerator so doors self-close smoothly

A refrigerator that runs hotter or leaks cold air can still cool, but it works longer and harder. That extra run time is what shortens life and increases the chance of failures in parts like the compressor, ice maker, or defrost system.

On a Kenmore side-by-side refrigerator model 10658122700, a “not cooling” problem is usually caused by a power issue, controls being set to OFF or too warm, blocked airflow vents, or a cooling-system component problem such as a fan or compressor. Start with the quick checks in the 10658122700 owner's manual.

• Confirm the refrigerator is plugged into a grounded 3-prong outlet and the outlet works.
• Check the house breaker or fuse; reset or replace if needed.
• Make sure the temperature controls are ON (not in the OFF position).
• Allow a full 24 hours after a new install or major temperature change for cooling to stabilize.
• Verify vents are not blocked by food packages; blocked vents restrict airflow between sections.
• Make sure doors are closing fully; frequent openings and warm room temps increase run time and can mimic “not cooling.”

Your 10658122700 relies on air moving between the freezer and fresh food sections. When vents are blocked, temperatures and moisture control suffer.

If power and settings are correct and vents are clear, focus on common cooling-related parts:

• Evaporator fan issues (no air circulation; often you will not hear the fan running)
• Thermostat/control problems that prevent the compressor/fans from running correctly
• Compressor or start components (unit may run oddly, click, or not run at all)

For control-related cooling complaints, the refrigerator thermostat WP2198202 is a common suspect on this model.

A refrigerator that is not cooling can quickly lead to food spoilage. Doing the power, control, and airflow checks first prevents unnecessary parts replacement and helps you pinpoint whether the issue is a simple setting problem or a true cooling-system failure.

Your Kenmore side-by-side refrigerator model 10658122700 has a total capacity of about 21.9 cubic feet. This is the overall storage volume for both the fresh food compartment and the freezer combined; exact usable space varies with shelves, bins, and the ice system.

We recommend checking the product specifications section in the 10658122700 owner's manual. That is the best place to confirm the listed total volume and any notes about how features (like the ice maker) affect usable space.

• Look for “Capacity”, “Total volume”, or “Product specifications”
• Confirm whether the manual lists total vs refrigerator and freezer volumes separately
• If you use an ice maker, expect slightly less usable freezer space
• If shelves or bins were replaced, usable space can change even though total capacity does not

Capacity helps when you are comparing refrigerators, planning grocery storage, or troubleshooting temperature and airflow issues. Overpacking a 21.9 cu. ft. side-by-side can restrict air circulation and cause warm spots.

If you are trying to regain storage room (cracked drawers, missing bins), these model-matched parts are common replacements:

• Refrigerator crisper pan WP2188656
• Refrigerator meat pan WP2188664
• Refrigerator cantilever bin WPW10321304

The most common issues we see on Kenmore refrigerators like model 10658122700 are cooling problems from blocked airflow, ice maker or water dispenser troubles, water leaks, frost buildup, and normal operating noises that can sound alarming. Use the 10658122700 owner's manual troubleshooting section to narrow the cause fast.

• Not cooling or uneven temps: Make sure food packages are not blocking air vents; this model relies on airflow between freezer and fresh food sections.
• Ice maker not working: Confirm the freezer is cold enough, the shutoff arm is down, and the water supply is on.
• Water dispenser slow or not dispensing: Flush the system after a filter change; trapped air and a clogged filter are common.
• Water leaking: Check for a clogged defrost drain, loose water line connections, or a cracked filter housing/cap.
• Noises (buzzing, popping, running water sounds): Many sounds are normal, including refrigerant flow and water entering the drain pan during defrost.
• Frost buildup: Look for door seal gaps and frequent door openings; frost can also point to a defrost system issue.

Most “big” refrigerator complaints start as simple airflow, filter, or door-seal issues. Fixing those early helps protect food temperatures, reduces frost, and prevents repeat ice and water problems.

• For filter selection and flushing steps, use how to replace the water filter in a Kenmore refrigerator.
• If your display shows codes, use Kenmore 106 model refrigerator error codes to interpret them before replacing parts.
