Kenmore 11022242510 washer Parts

Yes. We still support Kenmore appliances with replacement parts, and using your exact model number (Kenmore 11022242510) is the fastest way to match the correct OEM-style parts for your washer, such as belts, lid locks, valves, and drive components. For diagrams and part identification, use the 11022242510 owner's manual.

Best way to find the right Kenmore part

Use the model number first, then confirm the part by name and location on the parts diagram.

• Match the full model number: 11022242510
• Identify the symptom (won’t spin, won’t drain, won’t fill, lid won’t lock)
• Cross-check the part name against the diagram in the manual
• Replace common wear items with exact matches (belt, actuator, lid lock)
• Verify connectors and mounting style before ordering

Common parts customers replace on this washer

These are frequent fixes for top-load high efficiency Kenmore 110.22242-series washers.

Symptom	Likely part to check	Example part for this model
Won’t spin or makes squeal/burnt rubber smell	Drive belt, drive pulley	Washer drive belt WPW10006384, whirlpool washer drive pulley W10721967
Lid won’t lock, won’t start, clicks	Lid lock, strike	Washer lid lock W11307244
Won’t fill or fills slowly	Water inlet valve, inlet screens	Washer water inlet valve W11210459
Won’t drain, water left in tub	Drain pump, drain hose	Washer drain pump W10919003, washer drain hose W11244231

Why model matching matters (especially for Kenmore)

Kenmore washers were built by multiple manufacturers over the years, so parts are not “one-size-fits-all.” The same-looking washer can use different harnesses, controls, or drive systems. Matching 11022242510 prevents ordering the wrong actuator, lid lock, or control.

Quick checks before you order

These steps help confirm you are fixing the right problem.

• Unplug the washer and turn off water supply before inspecting parts
• Look for a loose/broken belt under the cabinet (spin issues)
• Check the lid strike for cracks and the lock for damage (no-start issues)
• Clean inlet screens at the valve if fill is slow (fill issues)
• Inspect the drain hose for kinks and the pump area for debris (drain issues)

Helpful documentation

• Use the 11022242510 installation guide to confirm hookups, drain standpipe setup, and leveling, since poor installation can cause vibration, draining problems, and error conditions.

Why it matters: Correct part matching and basic checks reduce repeat repairs and help your Kenmore high efficiency washer run as designed (HE detergent, proper lid-closed operation).

Yes. Your Kenmore top-load high efficiency washer model 11022242510 uses inlet valve screens (small mesh filters where the hot and cold fill hoses connect) to catch debris before it enters the washer. It does not use a typical front-access drain filter like many front-load washers.

Where the “filter” is on this washer

On model 11022242510, the most important filter points are at the water inlet connections.

• Turn off both water faucets (hot and cold)
• Remove the fill hoses from the back of the washer
• Inspect the small screens inside the inlet valve ports
• Rinse screens under running water and remove mineral buildup gently
• Reinstall hoses, then turn water back on and check for leaks

For the exact hose hookup and water supply requirements, follow the 11022242510 installation guide.

Symptoms of clogged inlet screens

A partially blocked inlet screen can look like a bigger problem because it restricts water flow.

What you notice	What it often points to	What to check first
Slow fill or long fill time	Restricted water supply	Inlet screens, kinked hoses, faucets fully open
Wrong water temperature	Hoses reversed or low flow on one side	Hot and cold hoses connected correctly
Poor rinse results	Low water flow or oversudsing	Inlet screens, correct HE detergent amount

If you’re also seeing fill-related issues, the washer water inlet valve W11210459 is the matched replacement part for this model.

Why it matters

Keeping the inlet screens clear helps the washer fill at the correct rate and temperature, which improves cleaning and rinsing performance and reduces nuisance “no fill” type symptoms.

Related maintenance we recommend

The Use & Care Guide also recommends routine washer maintenance to prevent residue and odor buildup.

• Use only HE detergent and measure carefully
• Use warm or hot washes sometimes (not only cold)
• Leave the lid open between loads to dry the tub
• Run the washer’s cleaning cycle monthly (about every 30 loads)

See the 11022242510 owner’s manual for the cleaning cycle and maintenance procedure.

On Kenmore washer model 11022242510, the fastest way to force a drain is to run a Drain/Spin (or Rinse/Spin) cycle and make sure the drain hose is installed correctly so water can flow out freely. If the washer will not drain, a clog, kinked hose, or a failing drain pump is usually the cause.

Quick steps to force a drain

• Press Pause/Cancel once to stop the current cycle.
• Select Drain/Spin (or Rinse/Spin) and press Start.
• Verify the drain hose is not kinked or crushed behind the washer.
• Confirm the standpipe or laundry tub is not backing up (a slow household drain can prevent draining).
• If the tub is full and you need to empty it immediately, disconnect the drain hose from the home drain and drain into a shallow pan or bucket (expect multiple trips).

Drain hose setup checks (most common “no drain” cause)

Your installation matters because the washer can only pump water out if the hose is positioned correctly.

• Remove any shipping or packing items that could affect operation.
• Make sure the drain hose is firmly attached at the washer’s drain port and secured with the clamp.
• For a standpipe, keep about 4.5 in. (114 mm) of hose inside the standpipe; do not force excess hose down into the pipe.

For the exact routing and clamp placement, follow the 11022242510 installation guide.

When it’s likely a part problem

If the hose and household drain are clear but the washer still will not drain, these parts are common suspects:

Symptom	Most likely cause	What to check next
Hums but won’t drain	Pump jammed or failing	Inspect for debris; consider replacing the pump
Drains sometimes, not always	Partial clog or weak pump	Check hose, then pump performance
Stops mid-cycle with water left	Drain restriction	Check standpipe flow and hose height

If you need the pump for this model, use the washer drain pump W10919003.

Why it matters

A restricted drain can leave water in the basket, cause cycle interruptions, and lead to poor spin performance. Correct drain hose placement and a clear drain path prevent repeat “won’t drain” problems.

To identify your Kenmore washer model, find the model and serial number label on the washer cabinet. On Kenmore model 11022242510, it’s typically under the lid opening, on the back of the control panel, or on the side of the main cabinet near the bottom; record both numbers exactly.

Where to look on the washer

Check these common label locations first:

• Under the lid, around the tub opening (top-load washers)
• Back of the control panel or console area
• Left or right side of the main cabinet near the bottom edge
• Rear panel of the washer cabinet
• Inside the lid area near the hinge (varies by revision)

What to write down (and why)

The model number identifies the exact design family; the serial number identifies the production run. We use both to match the correct Kenmore parts and documentation.

Item	Example format	What it’s used for
Model number	11022242510	Correct parts diagrams and compatible replacements
Serial number	Letters and numbers	Version changes, service bulletins, and date coding

Tips to avoid common mix-ups

• Copy the model number character-for-character (don’t add spaces or punctuation).
• If the label is worn, take a clear photo and zoom in to confirm digits.
• Don’t use the cycle knob labels or “HE” markings as the model number.
• If you see multiple numbers, the model number is usually the longest one starting with 110 on Kenmore washers like this.

Why it matters

Kenmore washers often have multiple revisions that look identical but use different parts (for example, a lid lock, actuator, or drive belt). Using the exact model number prevents ordering the wrong replacement.

For diagrams and model identification details, use the 11022242510 owner’s manual.

To reset your Kenmore 11022242510 top-load washer, we recommend doing a simple power reset: cancel the cycle, unplug the washer for 1 minute, then plug it back in and restart a cycle. If the lid is locked, use START/PAUSE/Unlock Lid and wait for movement to stop.

Quick reset steps (safe, no tools)

• Press START/PAUSE/Unlock Lid once to pause the cycle.
• Wait until the basket fully stops; the lid can take several seconds to a few minutes to unlock.
• Unplug the washer from the outlet.
• Wait 60 seconds.
• Plug the washer back in.
• Select a cycle and press START/PAUSE/Unlock Lid to start.

For model-specific control behavior and cycle status lights, follow the steps in the 11022242510 owner’s manual.

If the washer still will not run after resetting

These checks fix the most common “won’t start” situations on this Kenmore high-efficiency top-load washer:

• Confirm the lid is fully closed; the washer will not run with the lid open.
• Verify the outlet has power; reset the breaker or replace a blown fuse if needed.
• Avoid extension cords; plug directly into a grounded 3-prong outlet.
• If the load is tightly packed or unbalanced, redistribute items, close the lid, then press START/PAUSE/Unlock Lid.
• If the lid will not lock or unlock normally, inspect the lid strike and lock.

Common symptoms and what they point to

What you notice	What it usually means	What to check next
Lid Locked light stays on	Basket still moving or control is waiting	Pause and wait for full stop; then restart
Washer stops mid-cycle	Normal pause or load issue	Redistribute load; press START/PAUSE
Won’t start at all	Power, lid lock, or control issue	Outlet power, lid closure, lock/strike

If you suspect a lid-lock problem, the washer lid lock W11307244 is the model-matched lock assembly commonly involved.

Why it matters

A reset clears a “stuck” control state after a pause, power glitch, or lid-lock timing delay. It also helps you separate a one-time interruption from a repeatable issue that points to parts like the lid lock, actuator, or control.

Yes, repairing a Kenmore washer is worth it when the fix restores reliable operation for less than the cost of replacing the machine. For Kenmore model 11022242510, many common failures are repairable with standard parts (belt, actuator, lid lock, drain pump) and a correct diagnosis from the 11022242510 owner's manual.

When repair makes sense

We recommend repair when the washer’s core structure is sound and the problem is isolated to a serviceable component.

• The washer fills, drains, or spins inconsistently but still powers on
• The tub and cabinet are not rusted through or physically damaged
• The issue points to a wearable part (belt, pulley, lid lock, valve)
• You can confirm symptoms using the troubleshooting section in the manual
• The repair cost is clearly below a comparable new top-load HE washer

Quick cost-to-value checklist

Use this simple comparison to decide fast.

Situation	Usually the better choice	Why
Single-part failure (won’t spin, won’t drain, won’t fill)	Repair	High success rate, limited labor
Multiple major symptoms plus loud grinding or heavy leaks	Evaluate carefully	Could involve tub, basket, or control issues
Washer is otherwise working but performance is poor	Repair/maintenance	Often detergent, load, or inlet/drain restriction

Parts that commonly make a repair worthwhile

On this model, these are frequent “high-impact” fixes that can restore normal cycles:

• Washer drive belt WPW10006384 (slipping, weak spin)
• Washer actuator W10913953 (won’t shift between agitate and spin)
• Washer lid lock W11307244 (won’t start or stops mid-cycle)
• Washer drain pump W10919003 (won’t drain, standing water)
• Washer water inlet valve W11210459 (slow fill, no fill)

Why it matters

A correct repair keeps your 11022242510 running efficiently and helps prevent repeat problems. This washer is designed for HE (High Efficiency) detergent; using non-HE detergent can cause oversudsing, longer cycles, and performance issues that look like a “bad washer” but are actually a usage problem.

Last updated: February 2026

A Kenmore washer typically lasts 10 to 15 years under normal household use. For your Kenmore top-loading high efficiency washer model 11022242510, consistent maintenance, correct HE detergent use, and fixing small problems early are the biggest factors in reaching the high end of that range (see the 11022242510 owner's manual).

What affects washer lifespan most

• Load size and balance: frequent overloading or unbalanced loads increase wear on the drive system.
• Detergent choice: using HE detergent only helps prevent excess suds, longer cycles, and residue buildup.
• Water quality: hard water can contribute to mineral buildup and valve issues.
• Drain performance: slow draining strains the pump and can leave standing water.
• Routine cleaning: periodic cleaning reduces odor, residue, and component stress.

Signs it may be nearing end of life

• Loud grinding, squealing, or repeated belt slip during agitation or spin
• Frequent no-spin or incomplete cycles even after load rebalancing
• Water not filling correctly or filling very slowly
• Repeated leaking from the tub area or persistent standing water
• Repair costs stacking up across multiple systems (drive, drain, controls)

Common wear items and what they do

Part (example)	What it affects	Typical symptom when failing
Drive belt	Basket movement and spin	Slipping, burning rubber smell, weak spin
Drain pump	Draining and spin enable	Won’t drain, water left in tub
Lid lock	Safety interlock for spin	Won’t start or won’t spin with lid closed
Water inlet valve	Filling	Slow fill, no fill, wrong temperature

If you’re troubleshooting spin or agitation issues on this model, the washer drive belt WPW10006384 is a common wear part to inspect for glazing, cracking, or stretching.

How to extend the life of your 11022242510

• Use the correct amount of HE detergent and avoid over-sudsing
• Keep loads evenly distributed; pause and rebalance if the tub thumps
• Check hoses and connections periodically for seepage
• Empty pockets to prevent coins and debris from damaging the drain system
• Follow the cleaning and care steps in the 11022242510 owner's manual

Why it matters

A washer that’s maintained and kept in balance runs with less strain on the motor, belt, and pump. That reduces breakdowns and helps you get the full 10 to 15 years from your Kenmore washer.
