How to replace water filter in Kenmore side by side refrigerator?
For Kenmore side-by-side refrigerator model 10658943803, replacing the water filter is a quick, no-tools job: open the filter cover, release the old filter, install the new one fully seated, then flush water to clear air and carbon fines. Use the steps in the 10658943803 owner's manual.

After you install the new filter (important)
- Flush 3 to 4 gallons of water through the dispenser (or about 5 minutes total dispensing time).
- Discard the first full bin of ice after the change.
- Reset the filter indicator light (if your dispenser has one).
| Task | What to do | What you should see |
|---|---|---|
| Flush water | Run several gallons | Steady flow, no sputtering |
| Check sealing | Inspect housing and connections | No drips at the filter head |

How wide is a Kenmore side by side refrigerator?
Most Kenmore side-by-side refrigerators are about 33 inches to 36 inches wide. For the exact cabinet width of Kenmore model 10658943803, we recommend confirming the dimensions in the 10658943803 owner's manual, since width can vary by series (standard-depth vs. counter-depth) and by door and hinge design.
Typical widths you can expect
Side-by-side refrigerator widths are fairly standardized, but the final “fits in my opening” width depends on what you measure.
- Cabinet-only width: typically 33 to 36 inches
- Overall width with doors: often slightly wider than the cabinet
- Overall width with handles: can add about 1 to 3 inches
- Clearance space: plan extra room for door swing and airflow
How to measure width the right way
Use a tape measure and capture three numbers so you do not get surprised during installation.
- Measure the opening width at the top, middle, and bottom
- Measure the refrigerator cabinet width (body only)
- Measure door-to-door width at the widest point
- Include handles if they stick out past the doors
- Allow clearance for hinges, door swing, and ventilation
Quick reference: what “width” might mean
| Measurement you need | What it includes | Why it changes |
|---|---|---|
| Cabinet width | Refrigerator body only | Model design differences |
| Door width | Doors closed, no handles | Door thickness and trim |
| Overall width | Doors plus handles | Handle style and projection |
Why it matters
Getting the correct width helps prevent delivery day problems, protects the door gaskets from rubbing, and ensures proper airflow so the compressor and condenser can cool efficiently.

| Other prefixes | Another manufacturer | Use the exact model number for parts |
Why it matters for parts and repairs
Manufacturer identification helps you choose compatible parts and follow the right troubleshooting steps. Even when two Kenmore refrigerators look similar, parts like the water filter, ice maker, or control board can differ by model series.
