Kenmore 11028632700 washer Parts

Kenmore is a brand name, and different manufacturers have built Kenmore washers over the years. For Kenmore model 11028632700, the 110 model prefix identifies it as a Whirlpool-built washer.

We recommend checking the model and serial label under the washer lid and matching the prefix.

• Open the lid and locate the model/serial label under the lid
• Confirm the model number is 11028632700
• Use the first three digits (110) as the manufacturer prefix
• Keep the model and serial number handy for parts lookup and service

For more details on where to find the label and how Sears uses the model number for service records, see the 11028632700 owner's manual.

Knowing who built the washer helps us match the correct parts and repair approach (for example, Whirlpool-style direct-drive components such as a motor coupling, lid switch, or drain pump are common on many 110-series top-load designs).

If you are troubleshooting a symptom (won’t spin, won’t drain, won’t agitate), using the correct manufacturer family also helps narrow likely causes and the right replacement parts.

To reset your Kenmore 11028632700 top-load washer, we recommend stopping the cycle with the Cycle Control knob, unplugging the washer for 1 to 5 minutes, then restoring power and restarting the cycle. This clears many “stuck” control states and restarts the lid-safety logic.

• Push in the Cycle Control knob to stop the washer.
• Unplug the washer (or switch the breaker off).
• Wait 1 to 5 minutes.
• Restore power.
• Close the lid and pull out the Cycle Control knob to restart.

For model-specific control details, follow the stop/restart instructions in the 11028632700 owner's manual.

These checks solve the most common “no start” complaints on a mechanical-timer top loader:

• Confirm the lid is fully closed; the washer will not run if the lid switch is not made.
• Make sure the Cycle Control knob is pulled out firmly (some knobs feel “in between”).
• Verify the outlet has power (test with a lamp) and reset the home breaker if needed.
• If the washer fills but will not agitate or spin, inspect the drive system components.

A proper reset helps you avoid unnecessary part replacement by clearing a paused timer state and ensuring the lid-safety circuit is satisfied. If the washer restarts but stops again at the same point, that repeatable symptom usually points to a specific component (like the lid switch or drain pump).

On Kenmore washer model 11028632700, we unclog the drain hose by safely draining any standing water, checking for kinks or a tight standpipe fit, then removing the hose and flushing or clearing the blockage. Finish by reinstalling the hose with a proper air gap per the 11028632700 installation guide.

• Unplug the washer before servicing.
• Turn off both water taps.
• Keep towels and a shallow pan nearby; water will spill when hoses are removed.
• If the washer is full of water, bail out water first to reduce mess.

1. Confirm the drain setup is correct: the top of the drain hose should be at least 39 in. (99 cm) above the floor, and the hose should not be sealed or taped into the standpipe (it needs an air gap).
2. Inspect for simple restrictions: pull the washer forward and check for a kinked, crushed, or pinched corrugated hose.
3. Remove the hose and clear it:
   • Detach the drain hose from the home drain (standpipe or laundry tub).
   • If you can access the washer end, remove the hose from the washer outlet.
   • Flush the hose with hot water; use a flexible brush or a small drain snake to push out lint, coins, or sock debris.
4. Reinstall correctly: route the hose without sharp bends and secure it so it is stable but still has an air gap.

• Avoid excessive detergent; heavy suds can slow draining.
• Do not force extra hose down into the standpipe.
• Keep the drain height within the typical range; the hose end should not be more than 96 in. (244 cm) above the floor.

A properly routed, unclogged drain hose helps the 11028632700 drain fast, prevents siphoning (drain water flowing back), and reduces the chance of leaks and floor damage.
