Your Kenmore dishwasher model number is usually printed on a rating label inside the door opening. For Kenmore units like model 66515835793, we most often see the label on the inner door frame or along the tub rim when you open the door.

Where to look first (fastest spots)

• Open the door and check the left and right inner door frame.
• Look along the top edge of the door (near the control panel area).
• Check the tub opening rim (the lip around the stainless or plastic tub).
• Scan the inside edge of the door itself (near the latch area).
• If the label is worn, use a flashlight and look for faint stamped or printed characters.

If you still cannot find it

Sometimes the label is hidden by installation trim or has been damaged by moisture and cleaners.

• Check the toe-kick area (behind the toe panel) for a secondary label.
• Look on the side of the tub (visible only if the unit is partially pulled out).
• Review the 66515835793 owner's manual for model identification and feature references.

What the model number looks like

Kenmore dishwasher model numbers are typically a long numeric string. Many Kenmore dishwashers also use a prefix that starts with 665.

What you see on the label	What it means	Why you need it
Model number (example: 66515835793)	Exact dishwasher version	Ensures correct parts fit and correct troubleshooting
Serial number	Production identifier	Helps with service history and age lookup

Why it matters

We use the model number to match the correct parts and diagrams for your exact dishwasher configuration (rack style, spray arm design, door seal shape, and control type). Even small model changes can affect fit.

Yes, repairing a Kenmore dishwasher is usually worth it when the unit is under 10 years old and the problem is a common wear item (leaks, draining, filling, door sealing). For Kenmore model 66515835793, the 66515835793 owner's manual also outlines warranty coverage that can make certain repairs especially cost-effective.

Quick way to decide (repair vs. replace)

Use these checkpoints before buying parts or scheduling service:

• Age: Under 10 years typically favors repair; over 10 years depends on condition and repair type.
• Repair cost: If the repair is under about 50% of replacement cost, repair is the better value.
• Type of failure: Seals, hoses, and latches are usually worthwhile; major electronic or motor-related failures can be pricier.
• Leak location: Door leaks are often simple; tub leaks are a different category.
• Performance history: If it has been cleaning and draining well until recently, repair is usually the smart move.

Common repairs that are usually worth it on 66515835793

These are frequent, practical fixes that restore normal operation without major teardown:

• Door leak or moisture at the bottom edge: replace the dishwasher door seal WPW10509257.
• Won’t fill or fills slowly: check the water supply and consider the inlet valve.
• Won’t latch or stops mid-cycle: inspect the door latch alignment and strike.
• Poor wash coverage: clean spray arm holes and verify the spray arm spins freely.
• Drain problems: check the drain hose routing and for clogs at the sink connection.

Cost and effort comparison

Repair type	Typical DIY difficulty	Typical value outcome
Door seal replacement	Easy	High (stops leaks, prevents cabinet damage)
Spray arm cleaning/replacement	Easy	High (improves cleaning)
Inlet valve replacement	Medium	Medium to high (restores filling)
Electronic control issue	Hard	Depends on part cost and age

Why it matters

A dishwasher that leaks, won’t fill, or won’t latch can waste water, extend cycle times, and leave detergent residue. Fixing the root cause (often a seal, latch, or water-inlet issue) restores cleaning performance and helps the dishwasher run as designed.
