Kenmore 1069555722 refrigerator Parts

On Kenmore side-by-side refrigerator model 1069555722, the model and serial number label is located inside the fresh food (refrigerator) compartment on the side wall. Use that label to record the complete model number and serial number for parts lookup and service reference; see the owner's manual diagram for the exact spot.

What to look for

The label typically includes both identifiers and is printed on a factory sticker or plate.

• Model number (used to match parts diagrams and part compatibility)
• Serial number (used to identify production details)
• Electrical ratings (voltage/amps) on some labels
• Brand and compliance markings

Quick steps to find it

1. Open the refrigerator (fresh food) door.
2. Look along the inside side wall (often near the crisper area or mid-cabinet).
3. Use a flashlight and wipe condensation or dust off the label so it is readable.
4. Write the numbers down exactly as shown.

Common label locations (side-by-side refrigerators)

Most Kenmore side-by-side models place the label in one of these areas; for 1069555722, the manual points to the refrigerator side wall.

Location	How it looks	When to check
Fresh food compartment side wall	Sticker/plate inside cabinet	First place to look
Behind the base grille	Label near leveling rollers	If you do not see it inside
Door frame edge	Sticker visible with door open	If cabinet walls are clear

Why it matters

Using the exact model number ensures we match the correct Kenmore parts list and diagrams. That prevents ordering the wrong items, especially for model-specific components like the ice maker assembly 4317943 or dispenser-related parts.

To estimate the age of your Kenmore refrigerator model 1069555722, we use the serial number on the model and serial label. On many Kenmore units, the serial format includes a date code that indicates the month and year of manufacture; the exact decoding method depends on who built the refrigerator.

Where to find the serial number

We use the model and serial number label inside the refrigerator cabinet (the manual calls out this label location for recording your information).

• Check the fresh food compartment side wall (often near the crisper area)
• Check the ceiling of the fresh food compartment
• Check the door frame area (fresh food side)
• Write down the full serial number exactly as shown

For label location details specific to this refrigerator, use the owner's manual.

How the serial number date code typically works

Kenmore is a brand name; different manufacturers produced Kenmore refrigerators over the years. Because of that, the serial number date code can vary by production run.

Most commonly, you will see one of these patterns:

What you see in the serial number	What it usually means	What to do
Two letters followed by numbers	The letters often encode month and year	Decode the first two letters, then confirm with the rest of the serial
A letter plus digits early in the serial	The letter may represent a year, digits may represent week	Use the first 3 to 5 characters as the date code
A numeric week/year block	Week of year and year	Convert week number to an approximate month

Quick checks to confirm you decoded it correctly

After you decode a month and year, we confirm it makes sense with a few practical checks:

• Compare the manufacture date to your purchase date (if known)
• Check whether the refrigerator’s features match that era (dispenser style, control type)
• If you are ordering parts, match by model number 1069555722 first, then serial
• Use the manual’s “record your model and serial number” section as your reference point

Why it matters

Knowing the manufacture date helps us narrow down the correct replacement parts and revisions (for example, ice maker and dispenser components can change across production runs even within the same model family).

Your Kenmore Coldspot side-by-side refrigerator model 1069555722 is typically about 22 cubic feet of total capacity (commonly listed as 21.9 cu. ft. for this model family). For the exact capacity rating tied to your specific configuration, check the model identification and specifications section in the owner's manual.

How to confirm the exact capacity for model 1069555722

We recommend verifying capacity using the product specs for your exact unit (especially if doors, bins, or ice maker options differ).

• Check the model and serial tag inside the fresh food compartment (usually on a side wall)
• Look for a specifications or features section in the manual
• If your refrigerator has an ice and water dispenser, allow extra rear clearance for the water line during any move or reinstall
• Keep the refrigerator level so the doors seal correctly; poor sealing can affect real usable space

What “cubic feet” means (and why it matters)

Cubic feet is the refrigerator’s total interior volume (fresh food plus freezer). It helps when you are:

• Comparing replacement refrigerators
• Choosing storage bins and organizing zones
• Estimating how much food the refrigerator can hold
• Planning kitchen fit and ventilation clearances

Typical capacity range for Kenmore 106 side-by-side refrigerators

Most Kenmore 106 side-by-side units fall into a narrow capacity band.

Refrigerator type	Typical total capacity
Side-by-side (Kenmore 106 family)	21 to 23 cu. ft.
Compact/top freezer (smaller units)	10 to 18 cu. ft.

Related parts that can affect usable space

The most common problems we see on Kenmore refrigerators like model 1069555722 are warm temperatures or no cooling, ice maker not producing, water leaks or puddles, excessive frost or moisture, doors not sealing or closing, and noisy or long run times. Many quick checks are listed in the owner's manual.

Common problems and likely causes

• Not cooling or warm temps: controls set incorrectly, vents blocked by food, frequent door openings, evaporator fan or defrost trouble.
• Ice maker not making ice: freezer not cold enough, shut-off arm up (OFF), water valve closed, kinked water line, ice jam in ejector.
• Water in or under the unit: normal defrost water in drain pan, high humidity slowing evaporation, unit not level causing overflow.
• Frost or moisture: doors not closing fully, dirty or damaged gaskets, frequent openings.
• Doors will not close: food packages blocking, ice bin not seated, shelves or pans out of position.

Quick checks we recommend first

• Confirm the thermostat/control is not set to OFF.
• Verify power: cord plugged in, fuse or breaker OK.
• Keep interior air vents clear.
• Push the ice bin fully in; re-seat bins and shelves.
• Clean door gaskets; a poor seal drives frost and long run times.
• For ice maker issues, confirm the shut-off arm is down (ON) and the water shut-off valve is open.

Symptom-to-fix guide

Symptom	Most likely cause	What to do next
Refrigerator will not run	Power, control setting, defrost cycle	Check power and settings; wait 30 minutes if defrosting
Ice maker not producing	Freezer too warm or water supply issue	Set colder, open valve, remove kinks, clear jams
Doors will not close	Obstruction or mispositioned bins	Move food packages; re-seat bins and shelves

Why it matters

Fixing airflow and door-seal issues early prevents temperature swings that spoil food, increases frost, and makes the compressor run longer.

Parts that commonly come up

• Ice maker assembly 4317943 (ice production problems)
• Refrigerator defrost bi-metal WPW10225581 (frost buildup)
