Kenmore 11022352510 washer Parts

To estimate the age of your Kenmore washer model 11022352510, we recommend using the serial number from the model/serial tag and decoding it using the correct manufacturer’s format. The exact date code isn’t listed in the 11022352510 use & care manual, so the serial tag is the most reliable source.

Where to find the model and serial tag

On Kenmore top-load washers like 11022352510, the tag is commonly found in one of these places:

• Under the lid, around the tub opening
• On the back panel of the washer
• Along the cabinet edge near the lid hinge area
• Inside the lid area near the top rim

How to decode the age (what to do next)

Because Kenmore washers are built by different manufacturers, the serial number format varies. Once you have the serial number:

• Identify the manufacturer (often hinted by the serial prefix or the style of the tag)
• Look for a year code (letter or number) and a week/month code (often digits)
• Compare the decoded date to your purchase/installation paperwork if you have it

Quick decoding checklist

• Write down the full serial number exactly as shown
• Note any letters at the beginning (prefixes matter)
• Take a clear photo of the tag for reference
• If the washer was installed by a technician, check the install date on your paperwork

Model number vs. serial number (what each tells you)

Identifier	What it tells you	Best use
Model number (11022352510)	Design and parts compatibility	Ordering parts, manuals
Serial number	Build date and factory coding	Determining age

Why it matters

Knowing the build date helps us narrow down the most likely wear items and maintenance needs (for example, inlet hoses are typically replaced on a time interval). If you’re troubleshooting performance issues, age can also help prioritize likely causes.

Yes, the Kenmore top-load washer model 11022352510 uses a drain pump system that can trap debris, but it typically does not have a customer-cleanable “lint filter” like many front-load washers. For model-specific care and cleaning guidance, use the 11022352510 use & care manual.

What “filter” means on this model

On many top-load HE washers like 11022352510, the “filter” people refer to is usually one of these:

• A drain pump inlet area where coins, hair pins, and small items can collect
• Inlet valve screens (tiny screens at the water inlet valve) that can clog with sediment
• A wash basket that sheds lint into the water, which then drains away (no removable lint screen)

If you’re troubleshooting slow draining or standing water, the drain pump area is the most likely “filter-like” restriction.

When to check the drain pump area

Consider inspecting the drain system if you notice:

• Water left in the tub after the cycle
• Gurgling, humming, or intermittent draining sounds
• A burning smell during drain/spin (pump struggling)
• Repeated “won’t drain” symptoms after clearing the drain hose

If the pump is damaged or jammed and needs replacement, the compatible part for this model is the washer drain pump W10876600.

Quick comparison: top-load vs front-load filters

Washer type	Common filter access	Typical maintenance
Top-load HE (like 11022352510)	No front access door	Check pump/drain hose if draining issues occur
Front-load	Often has a clean-out filter door	Periodic filter cleaning is common

Why it matters

A clogged drain path can cause poor draining, longer cycle times, wet loads, and extra strain on the drain pump. Catching debris early helps prevent repeat clogs and unnecessary part replacement.

For Kenmore washer model 11022352510, the safest “hard reset” we can recommend is a simple power reset: disconnect power briefly, then restore power and restart a cycle. This often clears temporary control glitches without changing your wash settings; see the 11022352510 use & care manual.

Hard reset (power reset) steps for model 11022352510

• Press START/PAUSE/Unlock Lid to pause the cycle.
• Wait for the basket to stop moving (the lid may stay locked until it stops).
• Unplug the washer or switch the breaker OFF.
• Wait about 1 minute.
• Restore power.
• Select a cycle and press START/PAUSE/Unlock Lid to start.

If the lid won’t unlock

This model uses a lid lock; it may not unlock immediately after you pause.

• Confirm the basket has fully stopped.
• Press START/PAUSE/Unlock Lid once and wait.
• If the Lid Locked light is flashing, make sure the lid is fully closed and nothing is caught between the lid and top.

If the lid lock continues to act up after a power reset, the issue can be the lid lock assembly, the lid strike, or wiring. For model-matched replacement options, check the parts list for your washer, including the washer lid lock W11307244.

Quick comparison

Action	What it does	Best for
Power reset	Reboots the control	Frozen buttons, odd behavior, cycle won’t start
Pause/Unlock Lid	Stops and attempts to unlock	Adding items, checking load
Drain & Spin	Drains water and spins	Standing water after an interruption

Why it matters

A power reset is a low-risk first step on the 11022352510 because it can clear a one-time control hiccup. If the same symptom returns, it usually points to a condition the washer is detecting (lid lock, drain, or load balance) rather than a control glitch.
