Kenmore 11020022014 washer Parts

For a Kenmore washer, a basic reset is to fully power-cycle the machine: turn it off, unplug it for about 1 minute, then plug it back in and power it on. For model 11020022014, confirm the exact control-panel reset steps in the 11020022014 owner's manual.

Quick reset steps (safe, no tools)

• Press Power/Cancel to stop the cycle.
• Unplug the washer (or switch off the breaker).
• Wait 60 seconds.
• Plug back in (or turn breaker on).
• Press Power and start a Rinse/Spin or Drain/Spin cycle to test.

If the washer still will not start

These checks fix most “won’t run” complaints after a reset.

• Make sure the outlet is a grounded 3-prong outlet (no adapter or extension cord).
• Confirm the lid or door is fully closed; a failed lock can prevent operation.
• Check for a stuck control by pressing Power/Cancel once, then selecting a fresh cycle.
• If the tub is full of water, run Drain/Spin first.
• If the washer is shaking or walking, level it; vibration can interrupt cycles.

Common parts involved when a reset does not help

Symptom after reset	Most likely area	Example part for 11020022014
Won’t lock or won’t start	Lid/lock system	Washer lid lock assembly W10404050
Fills slowly or not at all	Water inlet valve/screens	Washer water inlet valve
Agitates poorly	Agitator drive components	Agitator dog

Why it matters

A reset clears a “stuck” control state after a power glitch, but it will not fix a mechanical or electrical failure (like a lid lock that will not engage). Leveling and proper power connection also prevent repeat interruptions.

A Kenmore washer typically lasts 10 to 15 years with normal household use. For Kenmore model 11020022014, consistent maintenance (level installation, correct loading, and periodic cleaning) is what most often determines whether you land closer to 10 years or push past 15.

Typical lifespan and what changes it

Most washers wear based on cycle count, load size, and vibration. These factors have the biggest impact:

• Overloading or consistently washing heavy items (accelerates drive and suspension wear)
• Poor leveling (increases vibration, noise, and drivetrain stress)
• Hard water and detergent buildup (can affect valves, hoses, and wash performance)
• Hot, humid laundry rooms (can speed corrosion on metal components)
• Skipping basic care like cleaning and checking hoses

What “end of life” usually looks like

A washer is usually near the end of its service life when repairs become frequent or involve major drive components.

Symptom	Common area involved	What we do next
Won’t spin or slips under load	Belt and drive system	Inspect belt condition and pulley alignment
Loud grinding or banging	Drive, basket, or tub support	Check for looseness, wear, or damage
Won’t fill or fills slowly	Water supply and inlet valve	Verify faucet flow, screens, and valve operation
Won’t start or stops mid-cycle	Lid lock or controls	Confirm lid lock engagement and power supply

Maintenance that helps you reach 15 years

These steps are simple and make a measurable difference:

• Keep the washer level; the installation guide calls for a level floor with a maximum slope of 1 inch under the washer
• Use correct load sizes; avoid packing the basket tight
• Use the right detergent amount; too much causes residue and odors
• Check fill hoses periodically and replace if cracked or bulging
• Protect against freezing; the installation guide warns not to install or operate below 32°F

For model-specific care and winterizing guidance, follow the 11020022014 installation guide.

Why it matters

A washer that is level, not overloaded, and kept clean runs with less vibration and strain. That reduces wear on the drive system, lid lock, and water inlet components, which are common sources of mid-life breakdowns.

The exact tub capacity (cubic feet) for Kenmore washer model 11020022014 is listed in the product specifications in the 11020022014 owner's manual. For Kenmore 110-series top-load washers of this design, capacity is typically in the 3.2 to 3.5 cu. ft. range.

How to find the exact capacity for model 11020022014

We recommend using the spec section in the manual first, then confirming on the machine label if needed.

• Check the Specifications section in the 11020022014 owner's manual.
• Look for a model and serial tag under the lid or along the lid opening.
• Compare the washer’s basket size to typical top-load capacities (smaller baskets are usually closer to 3.2 cu. ft.).
• If you are matching loads, use the washer’s cycle and water level behavior as a practical guide (bulky cycles generally assume larger capacity).

Typical capacity guidance (what it means for loads)

Even without the exact number in front of you, capacity affects what you can wash effectively.

Capacity range (cu. ft.)	Typical load size	Common examples
3.2 to 3.5	Medium to medium-large	Everyday mixed loads, towels
3.6 to 4.3	Large	Comforters, bulky items

Why it matters

Using the right capacity helps prevent overloading, which reduces poor cleaning, out-of-balance spinning, and extra wear on drive components like the washer drive belt and gear case. If your washer struggles to agitate or spin when loaded, inspecting wear items such as the washer drive belt WPW10006384 can also be part of a good maintenance plan.

Your Kenmore washer model number is printed on the appliance’s model and serial tag. For Kenmore washers, we most often see it under the lid on top-load models or around the door opening on front-load models; it commonly starts with 110 (like 11020022014) and is what we use to match the correct parts and manuals.

Where to look on Kenmore washers

Check these common tag locations first:

• Top-load washer: under the lid, along the rim of the opening
• Front-load washer: inside the door opening, on the door frame
• Back panel: near the power cord or where the hoses connect
• Console area: behind the control panel or along a side edge

What the model number looks like (and why it matters)

Kenmore model numbers are usually 10 to 12 characters and may include only numbers or a mix of letters and numbers. For this model page, the correct model number format is:

Item	Example	Used for
Model number	11020022014	Choosing exact-fit parts and diagrams
Serial number	(varies)	Manufacturing date and service history

Why it matters

Using the exact model number prevents ordering a look-alike part that does not fit, especially for fit-critical items like a lid lock, water inlet valve, or drive belt.

Tips to avoid common mix-ups

• Write the model number exactly as shown (include all digits)
• Do not use only the first 3 digits (for example, 110) when searching parts
• If the tag is worn, take a photo and zoom in; the serial number is not a substitute
• Confirm the model number before ordering electrical parts such as a control board

Helpful references for this washer

• Use the 11020022014 owner's manual to confirm where the model/serial tag is shown for your exact configuration.
• Use the 11020022014 installation guide for installation notes and location requirements that also reference the model/serial information.

Yes. Kenmore top load washer model 11020022014 uses drain-path filtering rather than a big, front-access “lint filter” like some front-load washers. Most routine “filter” cleaning on this style is checking the drain hose and inlet valve screens, and keeping the tub clean; see the 11020022014 owner's manual for the exact maintenance steps.

Where you will (and will not) find a filter

On this washer, filtering is handled in a few common places:

• Water inlet valve screens: small mesh screens where the hot and cold fill hoses connect
• Drain path: the drain hose and pump area catch debris that can restrict draining
• Wash basket/tub: residue buildup can mimic “filter” problems (odor, poor rinsing)

You typically will not find a removable, user-cleanable lint trap inside the tub like older designs.

Quick checks you can do safely

1. Unplug the washer.
2. Turn off both water faucets.
3. Inspect and straighten the drain hose; replace it if it is split or collapsing.
4. Remove the fill hoses and rinse the inlet screens (catch water in a towel or shallow pan).
5. Run a cleaning cycle or hot wash with an empty tub to reduce residue.

If the drain hose is damaged or restricted, replacing it is often the fastest fix; the correct part for this model is the washer drain hose W11244231.

Symptoms and the most likely “filter-related” cause

Symptom	Most likely cause	What to check first
Slow or no drain	Drain restriction	Drain hose routing and clogs
Long fill or no fill	Clogged inlet screens	Screens at the inlet valve
Musty odor	Residue buildup	Tub cleaning routine
Poor rinse	Low water flow or oversudsing	Inlet screens; detergent amount

Why it matters

Restricted water flow or draining can cause longer cycles, poor cleaning, and extra strain on the drive system. Keeping the inlet screens and drain path clear helps the washer fill and drain at the correct rate.

Kenmore washer model 11020022014 is a full-size top-load washer; most units in this Kenmore 110 platform are about 27 inches wide and roughly 42 to 43 inches tall. For the exact cabinet dimensions and clearance requirements for your installation, use the 11020022014 installation guide.

Typical size you can plan around

These are the common planning dimensions for a full-size Kenmore top-load washer like model 11020022014:

• Width: ~27 in.
• Height: ~42 to 43 in.
• Depth: commonly ~27 to 28 in. (varies with console and hose routing)
• Side clearance: can be 0 in. in some installs, but extra space helps service access
• Noise control spacing: adding 1 in. around the washer helps reduce noise transfer

Installation spacing and closet planning

The installation guidance for this washer allows tight placement, but we recommend planning for serviceability and airflow.

Location	Minimum approach	Better practice (recommended)
Sides	0 in. possible	+1 in. each side for noise and access
Rear	As needed for hoses	Extra room to prevent kinks and rubbing
Closet door	Must have openings if louvered/closet install	Ensure top and bottom ventilation openings

Why it matters

Washer “size” affects more than fit. Correct spacing helps prevent drain hose kinks, inlet hose strain, vibration noise, and makes it easier to service parts like the drive belt or lid lock later.

Quick measuring checklist (what we use)

• Measure width at the widest point (usually the cabinet top).
• Measure height to the highest point (often the console).
• Measure depth including any rear hose bend radius.
• Confirm your drain setup (laundry tub, standpipe, or floor drain) matches the install requirements.
