Kenmore Elite 79573133410 refrigerator Parts

Yes. Kenmore Elite is Kenmore’s higher-end line, and the 79573133410 Kenmore Elite bottom-mount refrigerator is built to deliver more premium features and fit-and-finish than standard Kenmore models. For the most accurate feature set and operating details, use the 79573133410 owner’s manual.

What “high end” means for Kenmore Elite

Kenmore Elite typically focuses on upgrades that matter in daily use:

• More advanced temperature management and controls
• Higher-end exterior styling and interior lighting
• Added convenience features (ice and water dispensing, storage flexibility)
• Quieter operation compared with entry-level units
• More serviceable, model-specific components (controls, fans, valves)

How to judge if it’s “high end” for your needs

Use this quick checklist to compare your expectations to what you own.

What you care about	What to check on your 79573133410	Where to confirm
Water quality and taste	Filter type and replacement interval	Manual + filter label
Ice and water performance	Dispense speed, ice production, leaks	Manual + basic tests
Cooling consistency	Temperature swings, warm spots	Control settings section
Long-term upkeep	Access to common service parts	Parts list for your model

Parts that commonly affect “premium” performance

If the refrigerator is not performing like a high-end unit, these parts often make the biggest difference:

• Genuine Kenmore refrigerator water filter 9690 AGF80300801 for taste, flow, and dispenser performance
• Water supply components such as the water inlet valve (leaks, slow fill)
• Evaporator fan motor (warm fridge, weak airflow)
• Door gasket and door alignment (frost, sweating, temperature issues)

Why it matters

“High end” is less about the badge and more about consistent cooling, reliable ice and water, and quieter day-to-day operation. Keeping up with filter changes, door sealing, and airflow maintenance helps your Kenmore Elite 79573133410 perform the way it was designed to.

Most Kenmore Elite refrigerators, including model 79573133410, typically last 12 to 15 years with normal household use. Consistent cleaning, good airflow around the cabinet, and staying on top of water and ice system maintenance help you reach (and often exceed) that range; see the 79573133410 use and care guide for model-specific care steps.

What affects lifespan the most

• Condenser cleanliness: Dust buildup makes the compressor work harder.
• Ventilation: Tight clearances trap heat and shorten compressor life.
• Door seal condition: Leaky gaskets cause long run times and frost.
• Defrost performance: Poor defrosting leads to ice buildup and warm temps.
• Water system upkeep: Clogged filters can reduce flow and strain valves.

Quick maintenance schedule (simple and effective)

Task	How often	What it helps prevent
Vacuum/brush condenser area	Every 6 to 12 months	Overheating, long run times
Check door gaskets for gaps/tears	Every 3 months	Warm temps, frost, moisture
Replace water filter	About every 6 months	Slow dispensing, bad taste/odor
Confirm temps (37°F fridge, 0°F freezer)	Monthly	Food spoilage, overworking

Parts that commonly impact long-term reliability

If performance drops, these are frequent wear items we see on this model family:

• Refrigerator water filter 9690 AGF80300801 (restricted flow, poor taste)
• Lg refrigerator water inlet valve AJU72992601 (no water to dispenser or ice maker)
• Refrigerator evaporator fan motor 4681JB1027C (warm fridge, weak airflow)
• Refrigerator door switch 6600JB1010A (lights, fan behavior, door alarms)

Why it matters

A refrigerator that runs longer than it should (from dirty coils, air leaks, or airflow problems) puts extra wear on the sealed system and compressor. Keeping run time under control is the most practical way to protect the biggest, most expensive components.

To tell how old your Kenmore Elite refrigerator model 79573133410 is, we use the serial number on the rating label to decode the manufacturing date; the model number identifies the product line, but the serial number is what dates the unit. Use the location and format shown in your 79573133410 owner's manual.

Where to find the model and serial number

On most Kenmore Elite bottom-mount refrigerators, the rating label is inside the fresh food compartment (often on a side wall near the crisper area) or on the door jamb.

• Look for a sticker that lists MODEL and SERIAL.
• Write the serial number exactly as shown (letters and numbers).
• Take a clear photo; it helps avoid mix-ups.
• If the label is hard to read, improve lighting and wipe dust gently.

How we determine the age (what to do next)

Once you have the serial number, match it to the date-code format used for Kenmore 795-series units (commonly built by LG for Kenmore). The serial number typically contains a year and month code.

• Find the serial number on the rating label.
• Identify the date code portion (often early in the serial string).
• Convert that code to a month and year.
• If you are comparing to coverage, use your proof-of-purchase date for warranty timing.

Quick reference: model vs. serial number

What you have	What it tells you	What it does not tell you
Model number (79573133410)	Series, configuration, parts compatibility	Exact build month/year
Serial number	Manufacturing date code	Exact purchase date
Proof of sale	Warranty start date	Manufacturing date

Why it matters

Knowing the build date helps us narrow down the correct refrigerator parts (like a control board, door switch, or water filter) and it also helps when troubleshooting age-related issues such as cooling performance, ice maker problems, or door seal wear.
