Kenmore 10641173716 refrigerator Parts

Yes. You can still get replacement parts for Kenmore refrigerators, including model 10641173716. We list model-specific parts such as door gaskets, evaporator fan components, and ice maker parts; you can also search by model number on Sears PartsDirect for additional Kenmore parts.

Use your refrigerator’s model number (from the rating label inside the fresh food compartment) and match it to the parts list.

• Confirm the full model number is 10641173716 (not just “106.4113”).
• Identify the symptom (warm fridge, no ice, door not sealing, noisy fan).
• Look up the part by name and verify it fits your exact model.
• Compare the part ID to what you already have installed.
• Use the diagrams to confirm location and mounting style.

For model identification and general use and care details, check the 10641173716 owner's manual.

These are examples of parts available for this model that often solve everyday problems:

Using parts matched to Kenmore 10641173716 helps prevent fit issues, air leaks, and repeat failures. For example, the correct door gasket reduces warm air infiltration, which protects food temperatures and reduces compressor run time.

For Kenmore model 10641173716, the exact cabinet width depends on the specific 106.4113*/4117* variation and door configuration; most Kenmore side-by-side refrigerators in this family are about 33 inches to 36 inches wide. For the precise width and required clearances, use the dimensions section in the 10641173716 owner's manual.

Most side-by-side refrigerators fall into these common width buckets:

• 33 inches: common for many standard-capacity side-by-sides
• 36 inches: common for larger-capacity side-by-sides
• Counter-depth models: often still 33 to 36 inches, but shallower front-to-back

Even if the cabinet width fits, you also need side clearance so doors can swing and the unit can ventilate properly. For this Kenmore side-by-side platform, our guidance from the manual includes:

• Plan for about 1/2 inch of space on each side and at the top for ventilation
• Plan for about 2 inches of space behind the refrigerator
• If installed next to a fixed wall, allow about 2 inches minimum on the side(s) so doors can open (varies by model)

Width is only part of the fit. Door swing clearance, airflow space, and leveling room determine whether your 10641173716 will close properly, cool efficiently, and avoid rubbing cabinets or walls.

On Kenmore side-by-side refrigerator model 10641173716, the model number is printed on the appliance identification label (the same label that lists the serial number). We use that model number to match the correct parts list, diagrams, and repair information for your exact refrigerator.

Check these common label locations first (they are the most typical for Kenmore side-by-side units):

• Inside the fresh food (refrigerator) compartment on a side wall near the front
• On the ceiling of the fresh food compartment near the temperature control area
• Inside the freezer compartment on a side wall near the front
• Behind the base grille area at the bottom front (after removing the base grille)

If your refrigerator has a water dispenser, the manual shows how to remove the base grille and access the lower front area safely; use the steps in the 10641173716 owner's manual.

The label typically includes both a model number and a serial number.

• Model number: identifies the design and parts for your refrigerator
• Serial number: identifies the production unit (useful for service history and age)
• Color code: some Kenmore model formats include a color indicator (often shown as an asterisk in the manual’s model listing)

Using the exact model number prevents ordering the wrong door gasket, evaporator fan motor, or ice maker kit. Even small design changes within the Kenmore 106 series can affect fit and wiring connections.

• Take a clear photo with the door open and the light on
• Wipe the label gently with a damp cloth (do not use abrasive cleaners)
• Copy the model number exactly as printed, including any dots or suffix characters

If you need to order parts after you find the model number, use the parts list for 10641173716 on this page, or search by model at Sears PartsDirect.

The most common problems we see on Kenmore refrigerators like model 10641173716 are cooling issues (often airflow-related), water leaks, ice maker and dispenser trouble, and unusual noises. Many of these start with blocked vents, dirty airflow paths, or worn door seals; our 10641173716 owner's manual covers key operating checks.

• Not cooling or warm temperatures: blocked air vents, evaporator fan problems, condenser fan problems, or frost buildup from a defrost issue.
• Water leaking or puddles: a clogged defrost drain, loose water line connections, or a door not sealing.
• Ice maker not making ice: water supply shutoff not fully open, air in the water line after installation, or a failing ice maker.
• Moisture buildup inside: humid room conditions or doors opened often or not fully closed.
• Noises (buzzing, rattling, whirring): fan blade rubbing ice, a failing fan motor, or vibration from the cabinet.

1. Confirm airflow: do not block the vents between the freezer and fresh food sections (blocked vents cause temperature and moisture problems).
2. Set expectations after water hookup: allow 24 hours for the first ice and up to 72 hours to fill the ice container.
3. Check door sealing: make sure both doors close fully and the gasket is clean and seated.
4. Reduce moisture sources: minimize door openings and wipe moisture with a soft, dry cloth.
5. Listen for fan noise: a scraping sound often points to ice buildup or a fan blade issue.

This side-by-side design relies on steady air circulation between compartments. When vents are blocked or a fan is weak, temperatures drift, moisture increases, and the ice maker can struggle because the freezer never stays consistently cold.

There is no single “top rated” side-by-side refrigerator for every home; ratings depend on what you value most (temperature stability, ice maker performance, noise, and capacity). For Kenmore model 10641173716, we focus on helping you evaluate features and keep your current unit performing its best using the 10641173716 owner's manual.

Use these criteria first because they drive day-to-day satisfaction and long-term reliability:

• Temperature consistency in both compartments
• Ice maker and dispenser performance (slow fill, leaks, clogs)
• Noise level (evaporator fan and condenser fan)
• Door seal quality (prevents frost and energy waste)
• Serviceability and parts availability

Most high-scoring side-by-sides do the basics extremely well.

These steps address the most common performance killers in side-by-side refrigerators:

• Level the cabinet so doors close fully (leveling screws are behind the base grille)
• Keep door seals clean; replace worn gaskets when they no longer seal evenly
• If you hear loud whirring or get warm temperatures, check the evaporator fan; replace the refrigerator evaporator fan motor WP2315549 if it is failing
• If cooling is intermittent with clicking at start-up, test the start components; a weak run capacitor can contribute, and the refrigerator capacitor WPW10662129 is a common replacement

“Top rated” comes down to consistent temperatures and fewer service issues. Airflow parts (evaporator fan motor), start components (run capacitor), and door sealing directly affect food safety, frost buildup, and operating cost.

If you decide to repair, you can order model 10641173716 parts from the parts list for this refrigerator, or search by model on Sears PartsDirect.
