Kenmore 10658152800 side-by-side refrigerator Parts

Kenmore model numbers are read left to right: the first 3 digits identify the manufacturer source, and the remaining digits narrow down the product design and version. For your Kenmore side-by-side refrigerator model 10658152800, the 106 prefix is the key identifier we use to match the correct parts and manual.

Where to find the model number on a refrigerator

On most Kenmore side-by-side refrigerators, the model and serial tag is typically located:

• Inside the fresh food compartment on a side wall
• On the ceiling of the refrigerator compartment near the light
• Behind the crisper drawers (on the liner wall)
• Along the door frame when the door is open
• Occasionally on the back of the cabinet

For diagrams and exact label locations for this unit, use the 10658152800 owner's manual.

How Kenmore model numbers are structured

Kenmore model numbers usually follow this pattern:

Section	Example	What it tells you
Manufacturer prefix	106	Who built the appliance for Kenmore
Base model digits	58152	Core design family
Suffix/version digits	800	Feature or production variation

Why the prefix matters

The prefix helps ensure you get parts that fit and function correctly, especially for systems like:

• Ice maker and dispenser components
• Water filtration and water supply parts
• Temperature controls and electronic controls
• Door hardware and bins

Why it matters when ordering parts

Even small digit changes can mean different shelves, filters, or control components. When you order, match the full model number exactly, including all digits.

If you are replacing the water filter on this model, the correct match is the refrigerator water filter EDR3RXD1.

Quick checklist before you order

• Copy the full model number exactly as shown on the tag
• Confirm the 3-digit prefix (for this model, 106)
• Use the full model number when searching parts (not just the prefix)
• Compare the part name and part ID to your original part

Most Kenmore side-by-side refrigerators are about 36 inches wide. For Kenmore model 10658152800, the installation instructions call for a 36 inch minimum cabinet cutout width, which matches the typical overall refrigerator width for this style; confirm exact dimensions in the 10658152800 owner's manual.

What the manual tells you for model 10658152800

The 10658152800 owner's manual specifies these planning dimensions for installation:

• Minimum cabinet cutout width: 36 in (91.44 cm)
• Recommended side and top clearance: 1/2 in (1.25 cm)
• Wall clearance for door swing: 2 in (5.08 cm) minimum (varies by setup)
• Extra rear space: needed if you have an ice maker water line

Quick sizing guide (what to measure)

What you are measuring	Typical value for this model type	Why it matters
Refrigerator width (cabinet)	~36 in	Fit between cabinets and trim
Cabinet opening (cutout)	36 in minimum	Ensures the unit can slide in
Clearance at sides/top	1/2 in	Ventilation and heat dissipation
Clearance at wall side	2 in minimum	Door swing and bin access

How to measure width the right way

Use a tape measure and check these spots:

• Cabinet opening width at the front and back (floors and walls are rarely perfectly square)
• Narrowest point between cabinets, trim, or a pantry wall
• Door swing clearance if the refrigerator sits next to a fixed wall
• Pathway width (doorways and hallways) for moving the refrigerator in

Why it matters

A side-by-side that is “36 inches wide” often needs more than 36 inches of real-world space once you account for ventilation gaps, door swing, and access to crisper pans. Planning to the cutout and clearance numbers prevents binding doors, poor airflow, and hard-to-service water line connections.

Most Kenmore refrigerators, including side-by-side models like 10658152800, last 10 to 15 years with normal household use. Regular care (especially cleaning and airflow) and fixing small issues early are what most often push a refrigerator past the average.

Typical lifespan ranges (what to expect)

Refrigerator life varies by usage, environment, and maintenance. Here are realistic ranges we see for Kenmore units:

Condition	Typical lifespan	What usually limits life
Normal use, basic upkeep	10 to 15 years	Wear on sealed system, fans, controls
Excellent maintenance, stable temps	15 to 20 years	Aging compressor components, defrost issues
Heavy use, dusty area, poor airflow	7 to 12 years	Overheating, icing, door seal leaks

What extends the life the most

These steps have the biggest impact on a Kenmore side-by-side refrigerator’s longevity:

• Clean condenser coils regularly so the compressor runs cooler and less often.
• Keep door gaskets sealing tightly; warm air leaks force longer run times.
• Maintain proper temperatures (about 37°F fresh food, 0°F freezer).
• Replace water filters on schedule to protect the dispenser and ice maker flow.
• Leave space for ventilation around the cabinet; blocked airflow shortens compressor life.
• Address frost buildup early; defrost problems can strain the evaporator fan and cooling system.

Quick “repair or replace” decision guide

Use this simple checklist when your 10658152800 starts acting up:

• Worth repairing: cooling is mostly OK, problem is isolated (ice maker, door seal, fan noise).
• Plan for replacement: repeated warm temps, frequent clicking, or multiple major failures close together.
• Always do first: clean coils, confirm temps, and check door sealing before buying parts.

Why it matters

A refrigerator that runs hot (dirty coils, poor airflow, leaky gasket) cycles longer and harder. That extra runtime is what typically shortens the life of key components like the compressor, evaporator fan motor, and electronic controls.

For model-specific care and maintenance intervals, follow the 10658152800 owner's manual.
