Kenmore 10650022210 refrigerator Parts

On Kenmore model 10650022210, the drip pan (drain pan) is typically accessed from the lower rear of the refrigerator; you unplug the unit, pull it out, remove the rear lower access panel, then slide the pan out of its rails or lift it off its tabs and slide it back in the same way. For your model’s exact access point and panel locations, use the 10650022210 owner's manual.

• Unplug the refrigerator (or switch off power at the breaker).
• Pull the refrigerator straight out to create working space.
• Remove the lower rear access cover (usually held by screws).
• Locate the drip pan near the compressor and condenser area.
• Slide the pan straight out; if it sits on tabs, lift slightly to clear the tabs first.
• Reinstall by aligning the pan with the rails/tabs and pushing it fully into place.

• Wash with warm water and mild dish soap; dry completely before reinstalling.
• If there is heavy odor or residue, wipe the area around the pan and the condenser base.
• Make sure the pan sits flat so it can catch defrost water without spilling.
• Reinstall the rear access cover before restoring power.

The drip pan collects defrost water so it can evaporate safely. If the pan is misaligned, dirty, or damaged, you can get puddles, odors, and moisture issues around the compressor area.

On Kenmore side-by-side refrigerators like model 10650022210, the model number is printed on the appliance’s rating label. You’ll typically find that label inside the fresh food (refrigerator) compartment on a side wall near the top, or around the door opening where the door gasket seals.

Look for a white or silver sticker that lists MODEL and SERIAL.

• Inside the refrigerator section on the left or right interior wall
• On the ceiling of the fresh food compartment near the light housing
• On the frame around the refrigerator door opening (behind the door)
• Inside the freezer compartment on an interior side wall (less common)
• Behind the toe grille or lower front kickplate area (occasionally)

The rating label usually includes both identifiers. For parts lookup and troubleshooting, we recommend recording both.

These quick checks help you find it faster without disassembly.

• Use a flashlight and look along the door opening where the gasket meets the cabinet
• Remove food bins temporarily so you can see the full side walls
• Wipe condensation or residue off the wall; labels can blend into the liner
• Check both compartments; some units place the label in the freezer

Kenmore model numbers can look similar across different series, but parts like a water filter, ice maker assembly, or electronic control board must match the exact model. Using 10650022210 ensures you get the correct fit and connections.

For diagrams and model identification details, use the owner's manual.

Kenmore side-by-side refrigerator model 10650022210 is a 25.6 cu. ft. refrigerator (total capacity). Use the capacity when comparing replacement storage parts and when planning airflow space so the refrigerator cools evenly.

Use these quick checks to match the rating to your exact unit:

• Verify the model number on the model and serial tag inside the fresh food compartment.
• Check the specifications section in the owner's manual for capacity and feature details.
• If the manual lists separate refrigerator and freezer volumes, add them to confirm the total.

This helps you sanity-check what you see on labels and spec sheets.

Capacity affects how much food you can store while still leaving room for air circulation. Overpacking a side-by-side can block vents, leading to warm spots, frost buildup, or longer run times.

If you are replacing broken drawers or bins to get your storage back, these are common fits for this model:

• Refrigerator crisper drawer WPW10178772
• Refrigerator meat pan WP2188664
• Refrigerator cantilever bin WPW10710203

To replace the ice maker in your Kenmore 10650022210 side-by-side refrigerator, we disconnect power, remove the ice bin, unmount the ice maker, unplug the wiring harness, then install the new assembly and restore power and water to confirm it fills and cycles.

• Unplug the refrigerator or switch off the breaker.
• Turn off the water supply to the refrigerator.
• Remove and empty the ice bin.
• Keep a towel handy for drips and melting frost.
• Use the diagrams in the owner's manual to match screw locations and wire routing.

1. Remove any shelf or trim blocking the ice maker.
2. Loosen and remove the mounting screws while supporting the ice maker.
3. Disconnect the wiring harness plug (pull the connector, not the wires).
4. Pull the ice maker forward; free it from the fill tube if it slips into the rear of the unit.
5. Install the replacement, reconnect the harness, hang it on the screws, then tighten.
6. Reinstall the ice bin; turn water and power back on.

• Fill and cycle: Listen for a fill near the end of the harvest cycle.
• First ice: Expect the first batch in about 6 to 12 hours.
• Leaks or icing: Check the fill tube area for dripping or ice buildup.

• Use the model-matched refrigerator ice maker assembly WPW10300022.
• If fill is weak, replace the Kenmore refrigerator water filter 9081 and discard the first 1 to 2 batches.
• For water-system upkeep, follow how to prevent water dispenser and ice maker problems.

A solid harness connection, steady water flow, and a clear fill tube prevent repeat no-ice problems and help your freezer maintain stable temperatures.
