Kenmore 41743142300 washer Parts

Kenmore washer capacity depends on the exact model. For your Kenmore 41743142300 front-load washer, the most reliable way to confirm the cubic-foot capacity is to check the specifications section in the owner's manual.

How to find the capacity for model 41743142300

Use these quick checks to get the correct number for your specific washer:

• Look in the Specifications or Product features section of the owner's manual
• Check the model/serial label (commonly around the door opening on front-load washers)
• If the manual lists drum dimensions (diameter and depth), use them to calculate volume
• Match your model number exactly: 41743142300 (small digit differences can change capacity)

Typical capacity range (helpful for comparison)

If you are comparing sizes, most Kenmore front-load washers of this style fall into a common range.

Washer type	Typical capacity range
Compact front-load	~2.0 to 2.6 cu. ft.
Full-size front-load	~3.5 to 4.5 cu. ft.
Large-capacity front-load	~4.5 to 5.0+ cu. ft.

Why capacity matters

Capacity affects how much you can wash per load and how well the washer tumbles items:

• Overloading reduces cleaning and can increase vibration
• Underloading can lead to poor balance and longer cycle adjustments
• Correct capacity helps you choose the right cycle, spin speed, and detergent amount

Related specs you may want to confirm

While you are checking capacity, we also recommend confirming installation-related specs in the installation guide, such as:

• Water pressure requirements
• Drain standpipe height range
• Minimum clearances for alcove or closet installs

On Kenmore washer model 41743142300, the F21 code points to a long-drain problem. We clear it by fixing the drain restriction (most often a clogged pump filter, kinked hose, or blocked standpipe), then resetting power and running a drain or rinse and spin to confirm normal draining.

Quick steps to clear F21

• Unplug the washer (or switch off the breaker) for 1 minute.
• Check the drain hose for kinks, crushing, or a clogged standpipe.
• Clean the drain pump filter and remove debris (coins, lint, socks).
• Reconnect power and run Drain/Spin or Rinse/Spin.
• If the tub still will not drain, inspect the pump inlet and outlet for blockage.

What usually causes F21 on this washer

F21 is triggered when the control does not see the water level dropping fast enough during drain. The most common causes are below.

Likely cause	What you will notice	What to do
Clogged pump filter or pump inlet	Slow drain, water left in tub	Clean filter; clear obstructions
Kinked/blocked drain hose	Intermittent drain, gurgling	Straighten hose; clear standpipe
Weak or failed drain pump	Hums but does not move water	Replace the pump if it will not pump

If you need the replacement pump for this model, use the exact match listed for your washer: washer drain pump 137108000.

Reset and verification checklist

• Confirm the drain hose is installed at the correct height and not sealed airtight in the standpipe (an airtight fit can slow draining).
• Run a short cycle and watch for a strong, steady drain flow.
• Check for leaks after moving hoses or servicing the pump.

Why it matters

A long-drain condition can leave water in the tub, prevent high-speed spin, and cause repeat error codes. Clearing the restriction protects the drain pump and helps the washer finish cycles normally.

For model-specific operating and care steps (including service checks before calling for repair), use the owner's manual.

The model and serial number for your Kenmore washer are printed on an identification plate located at the top, inside of the door opening. Open the washer door and look along the upper edge of the door frame to find the label; then record the full model number.

Where to look on model 41743142300

Use these quick checks to spot the ID plate fast:

• Open the washer door fully and look inside the door opening
• Check the top area of the door frame (not the door itself)
• Wipe the area with a damp cloth if detergent residue is hiding the print
• Write down the entire model number and serial number exactly as shown
• Take a clear photo of the label for ordering parts later

For the exact location reference and how Kenmore lists the model number format (often shown as “417.” followed by additional digits), use the owner's manual.

Why the exact model number matters

Kenmore 417-series washers share many similar-looking parts, but small design changes affect fit and wiring. Using the full model number helps us match the correct diagrams and parts, such as door components, drain parts, and drive system items.

What you need	Where you use it	Example of why it helps
Model number	Parts lookup and diagrams	Ensures the correct door strike or drain pump style
Serial number	Production run details	Helps confirm version changes within the same model family

Tips when the label is hard to read

• Use a flashlight and view from an angle to reduce glare
• Try your phone camera zoom, then read the photo
• If the label is damaged, check any purchase paperwork you saved with the washer
