Kenmore 59672914200 refrigerator Parts

Your Kenmore refrigerator’s model number is printed on the model and serial number sticker inside the fresh food (refrigerator) section. For Kenmore model 59672914200, the sticker location is on the left wall of the refrigerator compartment; confirm it against your paperwork in the owner's manual.

Where to look (fast checklist)

• Open the refrigerator door (top section on a bottom-mount unit)
• Check the left interior wall for a model and serial number sticker
• Look for Model Number and Serial Number fields
• Write the model number exactly as shown (numbers and any letters)
• Use that exact model number when selecting parts like an ice maker or door gasket

What the model number helps you do

The model number is the key to matching the correct Kenmore parts and diagrams for your exact configuration (door style, icemaker setup, controls, and trim).

You need to do this	Use the model number for this reason
Find the right replacement parts	Ensures exact fit and electrical compatibility
Confirm which diagrams apply	Matches your refrigerator’s version and revisions
Check manual procedures	Aligns troubleshooting steps to your unit

If the sticker is hard to read

• Wipe the label gently with a damp cloth and dry it
• Use a flashlight and take a close-up photo to zoom in
• Copy characters carefully; a single digit change can point to a different parts list

Why it matters

Kenmore refrigerators often have multiple versions that look similar. Using the exact model number prevents ordering the wrong component (for example, an ice maker assembly or a freezer door gasket) and saves time during troubleshooting and repair.

The most common issues we see on Kenmore refrigerators like model 59672914200 are cooling problems, water leaks, frost buildup, ice maker troubles, and doors that do not seal well. Many of these trace back to dirty condenser coils, blocked airflow, or temperature controls that need adjustment (all covered in the owner's manual).

Most common symptoms and what usually causes them

• Not cooling or warm temperatures: dirty condenser coils, blocked rear air grille/vents, door not closing fully, controls set incorrectly
• Runs too often: high room heat or humidity, frequent door openings, dirty coils, poor door seal
• Water leaking: water line connection issues (plastic tubing is less durable than copper), defrost drain problems, door left ajar causing excess condensation
• Frost or moisture: door gasket not sealing, high humidity, frequent door openings
• Ice maker problems: no water supply, frozen fill tube, failed ice maker module

Quick checks we recommend first (no tools)

1. Confirm the refrigerator is powered and the controls are turned on.
2. Set temperatures to normal mid-range settings; then wait 24 hours for stabilization.
3. Make sure vents are not blocked by food packages.
4. Inspect door closing: check for bins, drawers, or containers preventing a full seal.
5. Clean condenser coils (a common cause of warm temps and long run times).

Common problems and best next step

Problem you notice	What to check first	Likely fix if it persists
Food too warm	Coils, airflow, door seal, control settings	Clean coils; correct seal; adjust controls
Runs constantly	Room heat/humidity, door openings, coils	Improve airflow around unit; clean coils
Water on floor	Water line material and connections	Reconnect/replace tubing; correct routing
No ice	Water supply, ice maker function	Replace ice maker if it will not cycle

Parts that often solve the issue

• If the ice maker will not cycle or harvest ice, the refrigerator ice maker D7824706Q is a common replacement for this model.
• If the interior light or door-activated functions act up, a failed door switch can be involved; see the refrigerator switch W11396033.
• If doors do not seal and you see moisture or frost, inspect the gasket; the refrigerator freezer door gasket WPW10436247 is the model-matched option listed.

Why it matters

Cooling and moisture problems usually get worse over time: warm temps can spoil food, and poor door sealing can drive frost buildup and longer compressor run times. Addressing airflow, coil cleanliness, and door sealing early prevents bigger failures.

A bottom-mount refrigerator (like your Kenmore 59672914200) has the freezer compartment on the bottom and the fresh-food section on top, so the items you use most often stay at eye level. This layout reduces bending for everyday refrigerated groceries.

How a bottom-mount layout is set up

• Fresh food on top: shelves, drawers, and door bins are in the upper compartment.
• Freezer on bottom: frozen food is stored in a lower compartment, often a pullout drawer.
• More convenient access: you typically reach for refrigerated items more often than frozen items.
• Better organization for produce: crisper and deli storage are usually easier to see and access.

Bottom-mount vs. top-freezer: quick comparison

Feature	Bottom-mount refrigerator	Top-freezer refrigerator
Fresh-food access	Higher, easier to reach	Lower, more bending
Freezer access	Lower, more bending	Higher, easier to reach
Typical freezer style	Pullout drawer or lower door	Swing door
Best for	Heavy fresh-food use	Heavy freezer use

Why it matters

Choosing a bottom-mount design is mainly about ergonomics and daily convenience. With the refrigerator section on top, you spend less time bending for milk, produce, and leftovers, while the freezer stays accessible but lower.

Helpful model-specific tip

If you are moving, leveling, or fitting your Kenmore 59672914200 into a cabinet opening, follow the clearance and leveling guidance in the owner's manual. Proper leveling helps doors close correctly and supports good airflow.

On a Kenmore 59672914200 bottom-mount refrigerator, DH indicates a defrost heating problem: the refrigerator is not sensing the expected temperature change during the defrost cycle. This points to a defrost-system issue such as the heater circuit, wiring, or the main control not powering defrost.

What to check first (safe, quick checks)

• Confirm the doors are closing and sealing; heavy frost from air leaks can trigger defrost issues.
• Look for heavy frost or an ice blanket on the freezer back wall (classic defrost failure sign).
• Unplug the refrigerator for 5 minutes, then restore power to clear a temporary control glitch.
• Verify the freezer temperature is set correctly (typical target is 0°F) and the fresh food section is around 37°F.
• If the unit is warm and frosted up, move food to a cooler and plan a defrost-system diagnosis.

What DH usually means in the defrost system

During normal operation, the control periodically runs a defrost cycle to melt frost off the evaporator. DH shows up when the control expects the defrost heater to warm the evaporator area but does not detect the correct response.

Common causes

Likely cause	What you may notice	Typical fix
Defrost heater circuit problem	Frost buildup, weak cooling	Test heater circuit; repair wiring or replace failed component
Control not sending power to defrost	DH returns after reset	Diagnose control output; replace control if failed
Door gasket leak causing excessive frost	Frost returns quickly	Adjust doors; replace gasket if torn

Parts that may be involved

If diagnosis points to a control issue, the model uses a main control module. If the problem is related to door sealing, the freezer door gasket is a common wear item.

• Refrigerator control module WP12476002
• Refrigerator freezer door gasket WPW10436247

Why it matters

A defrost heating problem can lead to heavy frost on the evaporator, blocked airflow, warmer temperatures, and eventually spoiled food. Fixing the defrost system restores airflow and stable cooling.

For model-specific operating and safety guidance, follow the owner's manual.
