Kenmore 10651754711 side-by-side refrigerator Parts

Your Kenmore side-by-side refrigerator model 10651754711 has its exact cubic-foot capacity listed in the specifications section of the owner's manual. The most reliable on-appliance check is the model and serial rating label inside the fresh food compartment, which matches the correct spec set for your unit.

Fast ways to find the exact capacity

Use these methods in order; they avoid guessing based on similar model families.

• Check the specifications pages in the owner's manual for model series 106.5175*.
• Look for the rating label inside the refrigerator (commonly on a side wall or near the crisper area).
• If you are measuring instead of looking it up, measure the usable interior only (shelves and bins reduce usable space).
• If you recently replaced doors or interior parts, use the model number on the rating label as the final authority.

What “cubic feet” means (and why it can be confusing)

Capacity is the total interior volume of the refrigerator and freezer compartments combined. It is a spec value, not a measurement of how much food you can practically store once shelves, ice maker parts, and door bins are installed.

Typical capacity range (for context)

Most Kenmore 36-inch side-by-side refrigerators fall into a general range like this:

Refrigerator type	Typical total capacity range	Notes
36-inch side-by-side	20 to 26 cu. ft.	Ice maker and dispenser features can reduce usable space

Why it matters

Knowing the correct cubic-foot capacity helps when you are comparing replacement refrigerators, planning kitchen fit, or selecting accessories such as water filters and storage bins that match the correct platform for model 10651754711.

On Kenmore side-by-side refrigerator model 10651754711, the model number is printed on the appliance identification label (the same label that lists the serial number). We use that label information to match the correct parts list and the correct owner's manual.

Most common places to check

Look for a paper or foil label in one of these spots:

• Inside the fresh food compartment on a side wall (often near the crisper area)
• Along the door frame (visible when you open the refrigerator door)
• Behind the base grille or near the lower front trim
• On an interior ceiling panel near the light housing
• On the back exterior panel (less common for day-to-day access)

What the label looks like (and what to write down)

The label typically includes both a model number and a serial number. For accurate parts matching, we recommend recording:

• Full model number (for example, 10651754711)
• Full serial number
• Any suffixes or additional digits shown on the label

Item on label	Why it matters	Use it for
Model number	Identifies the exact refrigerator design	Finding the correct parts diagrams and part numbers
Serial number	Identifies production details	Confirming version-specific parts when designs change

Why it matters

Kenmore 106-series refrigerators can have multiple configurations within the same series. Using the exact model number from the label helps ensure you get the right replacement parts (such as a refrigerator ice maker assembly WPW10300022 or a refrigerator water inlet valve WPW10179146) and the correct procedures for door removal, leveling, and water line connections.

Quick tip if you are removing doors to access the label

If your unit has a door water dispenser, follow the safety and access steps in the owner's manual before disconnecting any tubing or removing the base grille.

To replace the ice maker in your Kenmore side-by-side refrigerator model 10651754711, we turn the ice maker off, remove the ice bin and mounting screws, swap in the new assembly, then restore power and water and turn ice production back on. Use the 10651754711 owner's manual for the exact shutoff style on your unit.

Before you start (safety and prep)

• Unplug the refrigerator or disconnect power.
• Turn off the household water supply to the refrigerator.
• Turn the ice maker off first (wire shutoff arm up, or On/Off switch to Off depending on style).
• Empty and remove the ice storage bin.
• Protect the floor; keep towels handy for small water drips.

Replacement steps (typical for this model style)

1. Turn off ice production:
   • Style with wire arm: lift the wire shutoff arm to Off (up) until it clicks.
   • Style with switch: move the ice maker switch to Off.
2. Remove the ice bin: lift the front of the bin and pull it out; reinstall fully later or the dispenser may not work.
3. Remove the old ice maker:
   • Take out mounting screws.
   • Disconnect the wiring harness plug.
   • If a fill tube or guide is attached, transfer it only if the replacement instructions call for it.
4. Install the new ice maker:
   • Mount the new unit, reconnect the harness, and tighten screws evenly.
5. Restore water and power:
   • Turn water back on and check for leaks.
   • Plug the refrigerator back in.
6. Turn the ice maker on:
   • Lower the wire arm to On (down) or switch to On.

Parts that commonly apply

If you are replacing the complete ice maker assembly for this model, use the exact replacement listed for 10651754711: refrigerator ice maker assembly WPW10300022.

Symptom after replacement	Most common cause	What we do next
No ice after 24 hours	Ice maker left Off, bin not seated	Verify On position; push bin in fully
Small or hollow cubes	Low water flow	Confirm shutoff valve fully open; check supply line
Water leaking at back	Loose connection or damaged line	Recheck fittings; inspect tubing for cracks
Ice maker cycles but no fill	Water valve issue	Test/replace refrigerator water inlet valve WPW10179146

Why it matters

Turning the ice maker off before service prevents unexpected cycling and reduces the chance of water leaks. Seating the ice bin fully is also critical because the dispenser can stop working if the bin is not pushed in all the way.

Kenmore model numbers are read in sections: the first 3 digits identify the manufacturer code, the middle digits identify the product platform or series, and the final digits (and sometimes a suffix) identify feature and color variations. For your Kenmore side-by-side refrigerator model 10651754711, the 106 prefix is the key identifier when matching parts and service information.

Where to find the model number on a refrigerator

On most Kenmore side-by-side refrigerators, we see the model and serial tag in one of these spots:

• Inside the fresh food compartment on a side wall
• On the ceiling of the fresh food compartment near the light
• On the door frame behind the crisper drawers
• On the cabinet frame near the hinge side when the door is open
• Occasionally on the back of the cabinet (less common for daily reference)

How to use the model number to get the right parts

When ordering parts, use the full model number exactly as shown on the tag (all digits). That ensures the parts list matches your exact door style, dispenser setup, and internal configuration.

• Use the full model number: 10651754711
• Use the 3-digit prefix (106) to identify the model family for troubleshooting and error code references
• Match parts by description and diagram location, not by appearance alone
• If a part has multiple color options (handles, doors, user interface), confirm the finish before ordering

Common examples for this model

What you are replacing	What to match	Example part on this model page
Ice maker not making ice	Exact ice maker assembly for the model	Refrigerator ice maker assembly WPW10300022
No water at dispenser	Correct valve and water line routing	Refrigerator water inlet valve WPW10179146
Dispenser controls not responding	Color and interface style	Assembly, user interface (black) W11174879

Why it matters

Kenmore model numbers often look similar across multiple refrigerators, but small digit differences can change the correct ice maker, water inlet valve, door parts, or user interface. Using the full model number prevents ordering a part that fits a different variation.

Water leaking from the bottom of your Kenmore 10651754711 side-by-side refrigerator usually comes from a clogged or frozen defrost drain (water ends up on the freezer floor and then out the front) or a water supply leak at the back that runs down to the floor. Use the 10651754711 owner's manual troubleshooting section to pinpoint the source.

Quick checks to identify the source

• Water or ice on the freezer floor: defrost drain is frozen or restricted.
• Water starts behind the unit and tracks forward: water line connection is leaking.
• Drips only after using the dispenser: normal after-drips, air in lines, or ice melting in the chute.
• Leak began after installing a new water filter: air in the system needs flushing.
• Drain pan is overfilled or shifted: defrost water can spill to the floor.

What to do next (safe, effective steps)

1. Unplug the refrigerator before accessing internal panels.
2. If you see ice on the freezer floor, thaw it with warm water; then flush warm water through the drain opening until it flows freely.
3. Pull the refrigerator out and inspect the water line and fittings; tighten connections.
4. If the dispenser drips after a filter change, flush the water system using the 5-seconds-on, 5-seconds-off method until about 3 gallons (12 L) dispenses.

Symptom guide

Symptom	Most likely cause	Best next step
Puddle near front after defrost	Frozen/clogged defrost drain	Thaw ice, clear drain, confirm flow to pan
Water originates at back	Loose/leaking water line connection	Tighten fittings, recheck for seepage
Drips at dispenser	Air in lines or residual ice	Flush system; clear chute; hold cup 2 to 3 seconds longer

Parts that often relate to water-supply leaks

If the leak traces to the water supply side (not the defrost drain), these model-matched parts are commonly involved:

• Refrigerator water inlet valve WPW10179146
• Refrigerator water tube W10823511

Why it matters

Stopping the leak prevents floor damage and helps avoid recurring ice buildup that can interfere with airflow, cooling performance, and ice maker operation.
