Kenmore 10672152111 refrigerator Parts

In a Kenmore top-mount refrigerator like model 10672152111, the upper section is typically the freezer compartment. It is designed to keep foods frozen and, when equipped, it also supports ice production through an ice maker.

What you will usually find in the upper (freezer) compartment

• Freezer shelves or a wire rack for frozen food storage
• An ice bin and/or ice maker (if installed)
• Air vents that circulate cold air to the fresh food section
• A freezer light and door switch
• A temperature control or airflow control (varies by design)

Freezer vs. refrigerator section (quick comparison)

Section	Primary job	Typical temperature
Freezer (upper on top-mount models)	Freeze and store frozen foods	About 0°F
Fresh food (lower)	Keep foods cold without freezing	About 37°F

Why it matters

Knowing the correct name helps when you are ordering parts, reading diagrams, or troubleshooting symptoms like warm refrigerator temperatures, frost buildup, or ice maker issues. For example, many cooling problems start with airflow or components located in the freezer compartment.

Where to confirm names and locations for your exact model

For the Kenmore 10672152111, we recommend using the 10672152111 owner's manual to match compartment names to the controls, shelves, vents, and serviceable components.

For Kenmore model 10672152111, the most reliable way to get cubic feet is to look up the capacity listed for that exact model in the 10672152111 owner's manual. If you cannot find a capacity listing, you can calculate a close estimate by measuring the usable interior space and converting cubic inches to cubic feet.

Best ways to find cubic feet (in order)

• Check the specifications section in the 10672152111 owner's manual for “capacity” or “cu. ft.”
• Look for a rating label inside the fresh food section (often on a side wall or near the crisper area); it sometimes lists capacity
• Use the model number (106 prefix indicates a Whirlpool-built Kenmore) to ensure you are matching the correct spec sheet or manual
• Estimate capacity by measuring the usable interior (not the outside cabinet)

How to calculate cubic feet yourself

1. Empty enough space to measure the inside of the refrigerator compartment.
2. Measure usable:
   • Width (left to right)
   • Depth (back wall to inside front edge)
   • Height (floor to ceiling of the compartment)
3. Multiply: width x depth x height = cubic inches
4. Convert: cubic inches ÷ 1728 = cubic feet

Quick conversion table

What you have	What to do	Result
Inches (W x D x H)	Multiply to get cubic inches	Total cubic inches
Cubic inches	Divide by 1728	Cubic feet (cu. ft.)

What to measure (so your estimate is realistic)

• Measure usable space only; shelves, ducts, and light housings reduce real capacity
• Measure the fresh food and freezer sections separately, then add them
• Use the same units (inches) for every measurement

Why it matters

Cubic feet helps us match the right parts and performance expectations for your Kenmore refrigerator, including airflow components like the refrigerator evaporator fan motor WP2315539 and defrost parts that affect temperature stability.

Yes. For a Kenmore 10672152111 top-mount refrigerator, the most reliable reset is a power reset: unplug the refrigerator (or switch off the breaker) for 5 minutes, then restore power and allow up to 24 hours for temperatures to fully stabilize.

How to do a safe reset

1. Unplug the refrigerator or turn off the circuit breaker.
2. Wait 5 minutes (this lets the electronic control board fully power down).
3. Restore power.
4. Set the controls back to your normal settings.
5. Give the unit time to recover cooling.

What to check after a reset

• Confirm the interior lights and fans come on when doors are closed.
• Make sure air vents in the fresh food and freezer sections are not blocked.
• Verify the doors close and seal all the way around.
• Listen for the compressor to start within several minutes.
• If you have an ice maker, allow 24 hours for ice production to normalize.

If you are resetting because of a specific symptom

Symptom	Most common cause	What to do next
Not cooling or warm temps	Airflow issue, dirty condenser area, control not responding	Reset, then check vents and door seal; monitor temps for 24 hours
Clicking, humming, then stops	Start components or compressor issue	Reset once; if it repeats, check start components and wiring
No ice	Water supply issue, inlet valve, ice maker problem	Confirm water supply; inspect the refrigerator inlet valve WPW10279909 and ice maker
Fan noise or no airflow	Evaporator fan issue or ice buildup	Inspect the refrigerator evaporator fan motor WP2315539 and look for frost buildup

Why it matters

A reset clears minor control glitches after a power outage or brief electrical interruption. It does not fix mechanical problems like a failing evaporator fan motor, a restricted water line, or a weak door gasket, so pairing the reset with quick checks saves time and prevents food spoilage.

For model-specific control settings and any button-based reset steps, follow the 10672152111 owner's manual.
