Kenmore Elite 10644029600 side-by-side refrigerator Parts

The exact cubic-foot capacity for Kenmore Elite model 10644029600 is listed on the model’s rating label and in the specifications section of the 10644029600 installation guide. This model family is commonly shown in 23 cu ft and 25 cu ft size classes; your unit’s label confirms which one you have.

Where to find the capacity on the refrigerator

Check these spots first; they give the most reliable, model-specific number.

• Rating label inside the fresh food compartment (side wall)
• Specifications section of the installation paperwork
• Product record information in the 10644029600 owner’s manual

Use the installation guide size class to narrow it down

The installation guide groups cabinet-depth units by size class and shows matching dimensions. Use it to identify which class fits your refrigerator.

Size class shown	Approx. liters	Typical height shown (leveling legs at minimum)
23 cu ft	654 L	64 7/8 in
25 cu ft	694 L	67 3/4 in

Quick measurement checklist (helps confirm the class)

Measure with doors closed and the unit level.

• Height from floor to top of cabinet (not hinge cover)
• Width across the cabinet (not the doors)
• Depth from back to front of doors (exclude handles if needed)
• Door swing clearance to walls and cabinets

Why it matters

Cubic feet affects storage space, but it also ties directly to fit. Using the correct size class helps you plan cabinet opening height, door swing clearance, and water line routing without surprises.

Common problems on a Kenmore Elite side-by-side refrigerator like model 10644029600 include weak or warm cooling, ice maker and dispenser troubles, water leaks, and unusual running or buzzing noises. Many issues trace back to airflow restrictions, dirty coils, door sealing problems, or a defrost or water system component that needs service (see the owner's manual).

Most common symptoms and what usually causes them

• Not cooling or uneven temps: blocked air vents, dirty condenser coils, evaporator fan issues, or a defrost problem
• Ice maker not making ice: water supply restriction, frozen fill tube, or a failing ice maker module
• Water leaking: clogged defrost drain, loose water line, or filter housing/cap not seated
• Noisy operation: normal valve and fan sounds, or a worn fan blade/motor
• Dispenser problems (ice not dispensing): jammed ice bin, worn coupler, or drive shaft issues

Quick checks we recommend before replacing parts

1. Give it time after setup: after a new installation, allow 24 hours for the refrigerator to cool completely.
2. Confirm power and controls: verify the unit is plugged in and the controls are turned on.
3. Check door closing and airflow: make sure doors seal fully and interior vents are not blocked by food packages.
4. Listen for “normal” sounds: buzzing when the water valve fills the ice maker and fan/compressor pulsing can be normal.

Parts that commonly solve these problems (when symptoms match)

Symptom	Common part to inspect	Example part for 10644029600
Ice maker not producing ice	Ice maker assembly	Ice maker assembly 2198597
Leaks at filter area or filter won’t seat	Water filter cap	Refrigerator water filter cap (black) WP2260518B
Poor airflow, warm fridge section	Evaporator fan blade (and motor if applicable)	Refrigerator evaporator fan blade WP2169142
Frost buildup, warm temps	Defrost thermostat (bi-metal)	Refrigerator defrost bi-metal WPW10225581

Why it matters

Cooling, ice, and leak complaints often share the same root causes: restricted airflow, poor heat removal at the condenser, or water flow restrictions. Fixing the underlying cause protects food temperatures, improves ice production, and reduces compressor run time.
