Kenmore Elite Refrigerator 79579754904 FAQs

For Kenmore Elite refrigerator model 79579754904, the model number is printed on the appliance’s rating label. On this style of refrigerator, that label is typically inside the fresh food compartment around the door opening or on an interior side wall; our 79579754904 refrigerator manual can help you confirm the exact label location and how to read it.

Where to look first (fastest checks)

  • Open the fresh food (refrigerator) door and check the left or right interior wall near the front.
  • Look around the door frame (the cabinet face the door seals against).
  • Check behind or beside the crisper drawers; you may need to pull a drawer out.
  • If you have a bottom freezer drawer, check the side walls near the drawer opening.
  • Use a flashlight and look for a white or silver sticker that lists MODEL and SERIAL.

What the label should look like

Most Kenmore Elite labels include:

  • Model number (for example, 79579754904)
  • Serial number
  • Electrical ratings (volts/amps)
  • Sometimes a bar code
What you need Why you need it Where it’s used
Model number Identifies the exact design and parts list Parts lookup, diagrams, manuals
Serial number Identifies production run details Service, warranty, date coding

If the label is hard to read

  • Take a close-up photo and zoom in.
  • Wipe gently with a damp cloth; avoid harsh cleaners that can remove printing.
  • If the door is sagging and the label is rubbing, inspect the hinge area; a worn hinge can also affect door alignment.

Why it matters

Kenmore model numbers can look similar, but small differences change which parts fit. Using the exact model number helps us match the correct door switch, water inlet valve, ice maker, and other components for your refrigerator.

For Kenmore Elite refrigerator model 79579754904, the exact cubic-foot capacity cannot be identified from the model number alone using the model-specific information available; Kenmore 795-prefix models do not encode a reliable, customer-decodable capacity in the digits. The most accurate way is to confirm capacity in the specifications section of the 79579754904 refrigerator manual or calculate it from interior measurements.

Best ways to confirm capacity for model 79579754904

  • Check the product specifications section in the 79579754904 refrigerator manual.
  • Look for a rating label inside the fresh food compartment (often on a side wall or ceiling area); some units list total capacity there.
  • Measure the usable interior space and calculate cubic feet (good when labels are missing).
  • Use capacity as a planning number, not a storage guarantee; shelves, ice maker, and bins reduce usable space.

How to calculate cubic feet (quick method)

  1. Empty the compartment you want to measure (refrigerator and freezer can be calculated separately).
  2. Measure height x width x depth in inches of the usable interior space.
  3. Multiply the three numbers to get cubic inches.
  4. Divide by 1,728 to convert to cubic feet.
What you measure Formula Result
One compartment H x W x D (inches) cubic inches
Convert to cu. ft. cubic inches ÷ 1,728 cubic feet
Total capacity fridge cu. ft. + freezer cu. ft. total cu. ft.

Why it matters

Capacity helps you compare refrigerators, plan grocery storage, and choose accessories like bins and organizers. For model 79579754904, confirming the spec in the manual avoids guessing based on the model number format.

Kenmore is a brand name, so replacement parts for our Kenmore Elite refrigerator model 79579754904 are typically manufactured by the original equipment manufacturer (OEM) that built the refrigerator and its components. For this model, many compatible parts are sourced from LG-made components.

How to confirm the correct manufacturer for your exact part

The most reliable way is to match the part ID/part number to your model’s parts list and diagrams, then order the exact compatible item.

  • Use the model-specific parts diagrams in the 79579754904 refrigerator manual.
  • Match by part ID/part number, not just by description.
  • If multiple versions exist, choose the one listed for 79579754904.
  • Compare the old part’s label (numbers and revision letters) to the listing.
  • When in doubt, verify by the component location (dispenser, door, rear machine compartment).

Examples of OEM sourcing you may see for this model

For Kenmore Elite 79579754904, it’s normal to see parts labeled under another manufacturer’s name because Kenmore-branded appliances were produced by different OEMs.

Example part for 79579754904 What it indicates Why it matters
Refrigerator door switch 6600JB1010A Often an LG-sourced component Helps ensure fit and correct electrical ratings
Refrigerator water inlet valve MJX41178908 Often an LG-sourced component Impacts water dispenser and ice maker performance
Refrigerator ice maker assembly AEQ36756912 Often an LG-sourced component Ensures proper ice production and mounting fit

Why it matters

Ordering by the correct model number (79579754904) and the exact part ID/part number prevents common issues like wrong connectors, mismatched mounting points, or incorrect voltage ratings, even when the part description looks similar.
