On Kenmore side-by-side refrigerator model 10658422700, a bad compressor usually shows up as poor cooling with long run times, repeated clicking as it tries to start, or abnormal compressor heat. Because this model can normally run longer and make pulsating sounds, we confirm failure by separating normal operation from true no-cool symptoms.

Quick checks before blaming the compressor

• Verify the temperature controls are turned on and set correctly (not OFF). See the 10658422700 owner's manual.
• If this is a new install or recent move, allow 24 hours for full cool-down.
• Listen for normal sounds: a pulsating/high-pitched sound can be normal as the compressor and fans adjust.
• Check door closing and airflow: blocked vents or frequent door openings can mimic compressor trouble.
• Clean condenser area and confirm the condenser fan (if equipped) is running.

Signs the compressor is likely the problem

What you notice	What it often means	What to do next
Fridge and freezer both warm, compressor silent	Not starting, start device issue, or no power to compressor	Check power, then have start components and compressor tested
Repeated clicking every few minutes	Compressor trying to start then tripping overload	Unplug and schedule electrical diagnosis
Runs constantly but temperatures stay high	Sealed system issue or weak compressor	Check for frost pattern and airflow; sealed system service
Compressor extremely hot to the touch	Overload cycling, poor ventilation, or failing compressor	Improve ventilation, clean coils, then test amperage

Parts that can mimic a “bad compressor”

We often rule these out first because they are more common than compressor failure:

• Defrost system problems (ice buildup restricting airflow), including the refrigerator defrost bi-metal WPW10225581 and refrigerator heater WP2323198
• Temperature control issues such as the refrigerator thermostat WP2198202
• Evaporator fan problems (cold air not circulating)

Why it matters

A compressor replacement is a major repair; confirming basics like control settings, normal operating sounds, and airflow prevents unnecessary parts replacement and gets you to the real cause faster.

The most common problems we see on Kenmore refrigerators like model 10658422700 are cooling issues, water leaks, ice maker or dispenser failures, and unusual noises. These problems usually trace back to airflow restrictions (dirty coils or a stalled fan), defrost system trouble, or water supply and filter issues.

Most common symptoms and what they usually mean

• Not cooling or warm temperatures: dirty condenser coils, evaporator fan not running, or frost buildup from a defrost failure
• Water leaking or puddles: clogged defrost drain, loose water line connection, or a leaking valve
• Ice maker not making ice: restricted water flow (filter), low water pressure, or a failing ice maker
• Water dispenser slow or not dispensing: clogged filter, frozen water line, or inlet valve problem
• Buzzing, rattling, or clicking: fan blade hitting ice, loose panels, or compressor start components struggling

Quick checks you can do first (before replacing parts)

1. Confirm temperatures: set fresh food to about 37°F and freezer to about 0°F.
2. Check airflow: make sure vents inside aren’t blocked by food packages.
3. Clean condenser coils: dust buildup is a top cause of poor cooling and long run times.
4. Inspect door sealing: look for gaps, torn gasket areas, or doors not closing fully.
5. Verify water supply: this model’s water system is designed for 30 to 120 psi supply pressure.

Parts that commonly fix these problems on 10658422700

Problem area	Common fix	Example model-matched part

If your Kenmore side-by-side refrigerator model 10658422700 ice maker is not making ice, the most common causes are the ice maker being switched off (wire shutoff arm up), no water supply to the ice maker, or the freezer not cold enough. Use the steps below to pinpoint the failure quickly using the 10658422700 owner's manual.

Quick checks first (most fixes)

• Confirm the wire shutoff arm is down (ON). If the bin is full, cubes lift the arm to OFF automatically.
• Make sure the freezer door closes completely; an open door can stop ice production.
• Wait the right amount of time: allow 24 hours for the first ice after setup; discard the first 3 batches.
• If ice is slow, set the freezer control slightly colder (half-step changes) and wait 24 hours between adjustments.
• Avoid a softened water supply when possible; it can lead to poor ice quality and damage over time.

Water supply and filter issues

A restricted water path can stop the ice maker from filling.

• Check the household shutoff valve is fully open and the supply line is not kinked.
• If water spurts or the dispenser sputters, flush air from the system by dispensing water in 5-seconds-on, 5-seconds-off cycles for about 2 minutes.
• Replace a clogged filter and flush afterward; for this model, the compatible filter is the genuine Kenmore refrigerator water filter EDR3RXD1.

Symptoms and what they usually mean

What you notice	Most likely cause	What to do
No ice at all	Ice maker OFF, no water fill	Lower shutoff arm; verify water supply
Small or hollow cubes	Low water flow, filter restriction	Replace filter; check inlet valve and line
Ice production is slow	Freezer not cold enough	Adjust freezer control; wait 24 hours

When a part is likely needed

If the shutoff arm is ON and water flow is good, a failed water valve can prevent filling. For model 10658422700, the common fill component is the refrigerator inlet valve W10408179.

Why it matters

An ice maker that is starved for water or running warm can also cause clumping, dispenser jams, and inconsistent cube size. Restoring correct freezer temperature and steady water flow prevents repeat problems.
