Kenmore 11022922100 washer Parts

Yes; repairing a Kenmore washer is usually worth it when the fix restores reliable washing and spinning for less than the cost of replacing the machine. For Kenmore model 11022922100, common wear items (like the drive coupling, drain pump, or agitator parts) are often straightforward repairs that can extend the washer’s life.

A practical way to decide

Use this quick checklist before you spend money:

• Confirm the symptom: no spin, no drain, leaking, loud noise, or poor agitation.
• Estimate the repair scope: one part vs. multiple major components.
• Compare cost: parts plus labor vs. a replacement washer.
• Check safety basics: unplug power and shut off water before any inspection.
• Use model-specific guidance: follow the procedures and safety notes in the owner's manual.

Repairs that are commonly “worth it” on this model

These are frequent, high-value fixes on many Kenmore direct-drive top-load washers:

Symptom	Common cause	Example part for this model
Agitator moves poorly or “ratchets”	Worn agitator dogs	Agitator dog 80040
Washer won’t spin or agitate	Worn motor coupling	Coupling 285753A
Won’t drain or drains slowly	Failing or jammed pump	Washer drain pump WP3363394

When replacement makes more sense

Replacement is typically the better choice when:

• The gearcase is leaking heavily or the washer has severe internal noise and multiple worn drive parts.
• The basket/tub area is badly damaged (rust-through, major structural issues).
• You are stacking multiple big-ticket repairs at once (for example, gearcase plus basket plus motor).

If you suspect a major drive-train issue, compare the cost of a gearcase repair using the gear case 3360629 price as a reference point.

Why it matters

A targeted repair keeps a proven Kenmore washer running, reduces downtime, and often costs far less than replacing the appliance. It also helps you avoid “guessing” by matching the symptom to the correct part and procedure.

On a Kenmore washer like model 11022922100, an F-22 code points to a drain problem: the washer is not pumping water out as expected, so the cycle may stop with water left in the tub. Use the troubleshooting steps in the owner's manual to confirm the exact checks for your control.

What to check first (fast, no tools)

• Make sure the lid is fully closed (some cycles will not advance if the lid is open).
• Verify the drain hose is not kinked, crushed, or pinched behind the washer.
• Confirm the drain hose is installed at a proper height; a standpipe that is too high can prevent draining.
• Check for excessive suds; too much detergent can slow draining and leave wet loads.
• If the home hot water has not been used for 2 weeks or more, run hot water at a faucet for several minutes before doing laundry (a normal safety step noted in the manual).

Likely causes on this model

Most F-22 drain faults come down to one of these issues:

• Clogged pump or hose (coins, lint, small socks)
• Restricted drain path (standpipe blockage or tight hose fit)
• Failing drain pump

If the washer hums but does not move water, the pump is often jammed or worn. For this model, the replacement pump is the washer drain pump WP3363394.

Quick symptom guide

What you notice	Most common cause	What to do
Tub full of water, no drain sound	Pump not running	Check power, lid closed, then test pump
Hums but drains slowly	Pump jam or partial clog	Clear obstruction; inspect hoses
Drains but clothes are very wet	Suds or spin issue after drain	Reduce detergent; choose higher spin cycle

Why it matters

A drain fault can leave water sitting in the tub, cause odors, and prevent the washer from reaching spin. Fixing the drain path early also helps protect the drive system and reduces repeat error codes.

Most Kenmore washers average 10 to 15 years of service life in normal household use. Your Kenmore washer model 11022922100 was designed for years of dependable operation; routine care and avoiding overloads are the biggest factors in reaching the upper end of that range (see the 11022922100 owner's manual).

Typical lifespan by use and care

A washer’s life is mostly driven by load size, cycle frequency, and how well the drive and drain systems are maintained.

• Light use (1 to 3 loads/week): often closer to 15 years
• Average use (4 to 7 loads/week): typically 10 to 15 years
• Heavy use (multiple loads/day): often closer to 8 to 12 years
• Overloading or chronic unbalance: shortens life by stressing the clutch, gearcase, and suspension
• Good habits (leveling, correct detergent, periodic cleaning): extends life and reduces repairs

What usually fails first on older top-load washers

On many Kenmore top-load designs like model 11022922100, wear items in the drive and drain systems commonly determine whether the washer is worth repairing.

Symptom	Common wear area	Example part on this model
Agitator moves poorly or “ratchets”	Agitator dogs	Agitator dog 80040
Washer won’t spin or agitates weakly	Motor coupling or clutch	Coupling 285753A
Won’t drain or drains slowly	Drain pump or hose restriction	Washer drain pump WP3363394
Loud grinding, oil leak, no spin	Gearcase/drive components	Gear case 3360629

Maintenance that helps you hit 10 to 15 years

These steps reduce strain on the basket, agitator, and drive system.

• Keep the washer level so the basket spins smoothly
• Avoid overloading; heavy loads accelerate clutch and gearcase wear
• Use the correct water level for the load size
• Do not wrap items around the agitator when loading
• Check pockets and reduce debris that can reach the drain pump

Why it matters

Knowing the typical lifespan helps you decide whether to repair a single failure (like a drain pump or coupling) or plan for a replacement if multiple major drive components are wearing out.

The Kenmore washer model 11022922100 capacity in cubic feet is found in the model’s specification information in the 11022922100 owner's manual. If the spec listing is not shown, you can still determine capacity accurately by measuring the wash basket and calculating cubic feet.

How we determine cubic feet capacity (accurate method)

Measure the inside of the wash basket (not the outer tub), then calculate the basket volume.

• Unplug the washer for safety before measuring
• Measure the inside diameter of the basket (inches)
• Measure the inside depth from the bottom to the top rim (inches)
• Convert inches to feet (divide by 12)
• Use the cylinder volume formula to get cubic feet

Capacity calculation you can use

Use this formula after converting measurements to feet:

Item	Formula	Notes
Radius	Diameter ÷ 2	Use feet
Volume (cu. ft.)	π × radius² × depth	π is about 3.1416

Example setup (use your measurements):

• Diameter (ft) = diameter (in) ÷ 12
• Depth (ft) = depth (in) ÷ 12
• Capacity (cu. ft.) = 3.1416 × (diameter (ft) ÷ 2)² × depth (ft)

Why it matters

Knowing the true cubic feet capacity helps you load the washer correctly. Proper loading improves cleaning, reduces out-of-balance spinning, and helps prevent extra wear on drive and suspension components.

If you are checking capacity due to performance issues

Capacity questions often come up when loads are not turning over or the washer struggles in agitation or spin. Common wear items on this model include the agitator dog 80040 and the coupling 285753A.
