Kenmore 11047511702 washer Parts

For Kenmore washer model 11047511702, a hard reset is a power cycle: unplug the washer (or switch the breaker off) for 1 minute, then restore power. If the control is stuck in a cycle or showing a code, use the STOP and START steps in the 11047511702 owner's manual to fully cancel and restart.

• Power cycle reset: Unplug for 1 minute, plug back in.
• Cancel the current cycle: Press STOP twice to power down and unlock the door (it may drain first if water is hot/high).
• Restart a new cycle: Press STOP once, choose a cycle, then press and hold START for about 1 second.
• Pause and resume: Press STOP to pause; press and hold START for about 1 second to continue.
• Manual drain if needed: Choose RINSE/DRAIN & SPIN, turn 2ND RINSE off, then press and hold START.

If the washer repeatedly stops, will not drain, or keeps showing a drain-related issue, the next step is usually checking for a restriction in the drain path and cleaning the pump filter area. On this model, the drain filter assembly is commonly serviced as the filter WPW10730972.

• Verify the drain hose is not kinked or crushed
• Make sure the standpipe or sink drain is not clogged
• Reduce oversudsing (use HE detergent only)
• Run a drain and spin to confirm the pump can evacuate water

A true hard reset clears the control’s temporary memory and safely cancels a cycle, which prevents repeated lockups and helps you confirm whether the issue is a one-time glitch or a drain, door lock, or control problem.

Your Kenmore washer model number is printed on the appliance’s model and serial tag; for this washer, the model number you need for parts lookup is 11047511702. On most Kenmore washers, you’ll find that tag around the door opening (front-load) or under the lid (top-load). See the 11047511702 owner's manual for the exact tag location and labeling details.

Check these common spots first (in order):

• Inside the door opening on the cabinet frame (front-load washers)
• Behind the door area near the hinge or latch side
• Under the lid along the rim of the tub opening (top-load washers)
• Back panel near the power cord entry or lower rear corner
• Side of the cabinet near the bottom edge

Kenmore model numbers often start with 110 and are typically 11 characters or longer. Using the full model number (not just “110”) ensures we match the correct parts list, wiring, and service procedures for your exact washer.

• Write down the full model number (example: 11047511702)
• Record the serial number too (helps with production variations)
• Take a clear photo of the tag before it fades or gets scratched

Kenmore washers can look similar across multiple series, but parts like the door boot, control board, and drive belt can differ by model. Using the exact model number helps prevent ordering the wrong replacement part and avoids repeat repairs.

Yes. Kenmore Elite is Kenmore’s higher-end line, and when your Kenmore washer model 11047511702 is labeled “Elite,” it typically means you’re getting more premium features, quieter operation, and upgraded controls compared with standard Kenmore models.

Kenmore Elite models are generally positioned above the base and mid-line units. In real-world terms, that often shows up as:

• More cycle options and specialty cycles (for example, a dedicated Clean Washer cycle)
• Higher spin speeds for better water extraction and shorter dry times
• More advanced electronic controls and user interface features
• Better vibration control and load balancing
• More convenience features (dispensers, door lock systems, service diagnostics)

For cycle and feature details specific to model 11047511702, use the 11047511702 owner's manual.

“High end” depends on what you value most: cleaning performance, capacity, efficiency, noise, or repair cost. Here’s a quick way to evaluate it.

Kenmore Elite washers often include more electronics and specialized components. That can improve performance and convenience, but it also makes correct maintenance and troubleshooting more important.

If you’re comparing repair costs or planning maintenance, these model-specific parts are examples of higher-feature components:

• Washer user interface WP8574969 (control panel interface)
• Electronic control WPW10525353 (main control)
• Latch WPW10253483 (door lock mechanism)

Yes, it’s worth repairing a Kenmore washer when the fix restores reliable operation for less than about half the cost of a comparable new washer and the tub and drive system are still in good shape. For model 11047511702, start with the troubleshooting and care steps in the 11047511702 owner's manual before pricing parts.

• Repair when the failure is a common wear item (door boot, clamp, belt, hoses).
• Repair when the symptom is isolated (door leak, vibration from leveling, slow drain from a clog).
• Replace when the outer tub or spin basket is damaged and multiple major assemblies are needed.
• Replace when repeated electronic control or wiring issues keep returning.
• Repair when you can do the work safely and the parts cost stays reasonable.

These are frequent front-load washer fixes that usually bring the machine back quickly:

• Unplug the washer; confirm the drum turns smoothly by hand.
• Look for heavy wobble, grinding noise, or rust streaks that point to bearing or tub problems.
• Confirm the washer is level; recheck the leveling legs and locking hardware.
• Follow the cleaning and troubleshooting routines in the 11047511702 owner's manual.
• Compare parts cost plus labor time against replacement cost.

A targeted repair (door boot, belt, or clearing the drain pump coin trap) often extends washer life for years. Replacing major assemblies (outer tub, spin basket, multiple electronics) can push total cost close to replacement.

A Kenmore washer typically lasts 10 to 15 years. For Kenmore model 11047511702, routine care (especially cleaning and periodic checks) helps you reach the longer end of that range; heavy loads, poor leveling, and neglected maintenance shorten it.

Most washers land in the same general window, but real-world life depends on use and upkeep.

• Loads per week: more cycles equals more wear on bearings, motor, and suspension
• Overloading: strains the drive system and increases vibration
• Leveling: an unlevel washer can shake, walk, and wear parts faster
• Water quality: sediment can affect valves and internal flow paths
• Maintenance habits: cleaning and hose checks reduce leaks and odor issues

Your Kenmore 11047511702 manual includes a dedicated Washer care section (cleaning, inlet hoses, storage/moving care). Use it as your baseline: 11047511702 owner's manual.

• Clean the washer regularly (tub, door area, and dispenser areas)
• Inspect water inlet hoses periodically; replace if bulging, cracking, or leaking
• Keep the washer level and re-check after moving it
• Use the correct detergent type and amount to reduce residue buildup
• Leave the door slightly open between loads to help the interior dry

The manual notes that some items are considered normal wear items (for example, filters and belts). These are often the first things to address when performance drops.

Knowing the 10 to 15 year lifespan helps you decide whether to maintain and replace wear parts (belt, filter, door boot) or plan for a replacement when major components like the tub, motor, or controls start failing.
