Can you still get parts for Kenmore refrigerators?
Yes. You can still get replacement parts for Kenmore refrigerators, including model 79571313312. We recommend matching parts by the full model number so the compressor, ice maker, door gasket, and water inlet valve fit and function correctly.
Use the model number to confirm compatibility, then match by part name and part ID.
- Locate the model tag (commonly inside the fresh food compartment or on a side wall)
- Enter 79571313312 when searching parts to avoid look-alike substitutions
- Compare the part description and part ID, not just the photo
- Check whether the issue is in the cooling system, ice maker, or door sealing area
- Use the 79571313312 owner's manual for feature locations and basic operating checks
These are examples of parts available for Kenmore 79571313312 that often solve everyday problems.
| Symptom | Likely part to check | Example part for this model |
|---|---|---|
| No ice or small cubes | Ice maker, water supply components | Lg refrigerator ice maker assembly model AEQ72909603 AEQ72909603 |
| Water not dispensing or slow fill | Water inlet valve | Lg refrigerator water inlet valve AJU73753101 |
| Door not sealing, frost, warm spots | Door gasket | Lg refrigerator door gasket, right (noble gray) ADX73350633 |
| Clicking, won’t start cooling | Compressor start protection | Refrigerator compressor overload protector 6750CL0001D |
| Warm fridge or noisy airflow | Evaporator fan motor | Lg refrigerator evaporator fan motor 4681JB1027C |
Using the correct Kenmore model number and matching the exact part ID helps prevent repeat failures, leaks, temperature swings, and fit issues (especially with door gaskets, ice maker assemblies, and electronic controls).
If you are troubleshooting a display or fault code on Kenmore 795-series units, use Kenmore 795 model bottom freezer refrigerator error codes to narrow the problem to a sensor, fan, defrost issue, or control.

How to identify a refrigerator model?
To identify your refrigerator model, we look for the model/serial tag on the cabinet (not on removable drawers). On Kenmore model 79571313312, the tag is typically inside the fresh food section or freezer, often on a side wall, near the crisper area, or behind the lower kickplate; confirm the exact location in the 79571313312 owner's manual.
- Inside the refrigerator compartment on the left or right interior wall
- Inside the freezer compartment on an interior side wall
- On the frame just behind or beside the crisper drawers (you may need to remove the drawer)
- Behind the lower front kickplate or toe grille (look on the cabinet frame)
- Along the door opening frame (hinge side), on the cabinet (not the door)
The tag usually includes a model number and serial number. We recommend recording:
- Full model number (for this page: 79571313312)
- Serial number
- Any revision codes (letters or extra digits after the model)
The model number is how we match the correct Kenmore refrigerator parts and diagrams. Even small differences in a series can change which items fit, such as a door gasket, ice maker assembly, or water inlet valve.
| If you see | Use it for |
|---|---|
| Model number | Finding exact parts and diagrams |
| Serial number | Determining production range for compatible parts |
| Extra suffix letters/digits | Matching the correct version of the same model |

What is the most expensive part to replace on a refrigerator?
On most refrigerators, the compressor is typically the most expensive component to replace because it is the heart of the sealed cooling system and the repair often involves specialized labor. For Kenmore model 79571313312, a compressor replacement is commonly the priciest parts-and-labor job.
The compressor is a high-cost repair because it is part of the sealed system and failures can be tied to cooling performance, refrigerant flow, and system pressures.
- The compressor is a major mechanical component with a higher part cost
- Sealed-system work often requires specialized tools and training
- Diagnosis time can be longer than for simple electrical parts
- Related components may be replaced at the same time (for reliability)
Here are common high-dollar parts on this model, with the compressor usually at the top.
| Part (example) | What it does | Typical cost impact |
|---|---|---|
| Refrigerator compressor TCA38091801 | Pumps refrigerant through the sealed system | Highest |
| Refrigerator power control board | Manages cooling and electrical functions | High |
| Evaporator assembly | Absorbs heat to create cooling | High |
These symptoms often point toward a sealed-system or compressor-related issue (not always the compressor itself):
- Refrigerator and freezer both warm, fans may still run
- Clicking or repeated start attempts from the compressor area
- Unit runs constantly with poor cooling
- Frost pattern issues on the evaporator (partial frost, no frost)
Knowing the compressor is usually the most expensive repair helps you prioritize troubleshooting. We recommend confirming basics first (airflow, condenser cleanliness, door seal, and temperature settings) using the 79571313312 manual before committing to major parts.

What size is Kenmore refrigerator model 79571313312?
Kenmore refrigerator model 79571313312 is a French door refrigerator with an overall capacity of 22.7 cu. ft. For the exact exterior dimensions (width, depth, height) and clearance requirements for your specific configuration, use the 79571313312 owner's manual.
Most customers mean one or more of the measurements below:
- Capacity (cu. ft.): storage volume (this model is 22.7 cu. ft.)
- Overall width: measured at the widest point (often hinges)
- Overall depth: cabinet-only vs. including handles
- Overall height: floor to top hinge cover
- Clearances: space for door swing, drawer pull-out, and airflow
Kenmore 795-series French door refrigerators in the 33-inch class commonly fit within these planning ranges; confirm exact numbers in the manual before ordering cabinetry or scheduling delivery.
| Measurement | Typical planning range |
|---|---|
| Width | ~33 in. |
| Depth | ~30 to 33 in. |
| Height | ~67 to 70 in. |
Measure with doors closed and the unit in its installed position:
- Measure width at the widest point (hinges can be wider than the cabinet)
- Measure depth two ways: without handles and with handles
- Measure height from the floor to the top hinge cover
- Add space for rear/top airflow and door opening clearance
Correct sizing prevents fit issues in the opening, avoids blocked ventilation (which can cause warm temperatures and longer run times), and ensures the French doors and freezer drawer open fully.

What's the average lifespan of a Kenmore refrigerator?
Most Kenmore refrigerators, including model 79571313312, typically last 12 to 15 years with normal household use. Consistent cleaning, good airflow around the cabinet, and quick repairs when cooling or ice issues start can help you reach the high end of that range.
- Condenser coil cleanliness (dust buildup makes the compressor work harder)
- Door seal condition (air leaks cause longer run times and frost)
- Stable temperatures (avoid frequent warm-ups from propped doors)
- Ice maker and water system health (clogs and leaks create extra wear)
- Ventilation space around the refrigerator (prevents overheating)
For model-specific care and operating guidance, follow the maintenance section in the 79571313312 manual.
| Task | How often | Why it helps |
|---|---|---|
| Clean condenser area | Every 6 to 12 months | Reduces compressor strain |
| Check door gaskets for gaps/tears | Every 3 months | Prevents warm air leaks |
| Confirm temps (fresh food and freezer) | Monthly | Avoids overworking the sealed system |
| Replace water filter (if equipped) | About every 6 months | Protects valve and ice maker flow |
A refrigerator can still be worth repairing in the 12 to 15 year window when the issue is a common wear part (switches, gaskets, valves, fans). For example, if you are troubleshooting water fill problems, the lg refrigerator water inlet valve AJU73753101 is a typical component involved.
- Compressor runs almost constantly with poor cooling
- Repeated warm temperature swings or thawing food
- Excessive frost buildup that returns quickly after defrosting
- Unusual loud buzzing or clicking from the compressor area
- Multiple major repairs needed close together
Knowing the typical lifespan helps you plan: routine maintenance can delay expensive sealed-system failures (compressor, evaporator, condenser) and keep energy use and food safety more consistent.
