Kenmore 10658522700 side-by-side refrigerator Parts

To find the size of your Kenmore 10658522700 side-by-side refrigerator, we measure the outside dimensions (width, height, depth) and, if you want capacity, we calculate cubic feet from the usable interior space. The most accurate dimension points and measurement locations are shown in the 10658522700 owner's manual.

Measure the outside dimensions (what fits in your space)

Use a tape measure and record in inches:

• Width: measure across the front at the widest point (often the doors/handles)
• Height: floor to the top of the cabinet (or hinge cover if it sits higher)
• Depth: front of the cabinet to the back; also note depth with doors open if clearance is tight
• Clearance space: leave room for door swing and airflow behind/above the unit

Quick reference: what to write down

Measurement	Where to measure	Why it matters
Width	Widest point at the front	Cabinet opening fit
Height	Floor to top	Overhead clearance
Depth	Front to back	Walkway and door swing
Door swing	Door fully open	Drawer access and bin removal

Calculate storage capacity (cubic feet)

If you want “size” as capacity, we calculate cubic feet from the interior:

1. Measure interior width x interior height x interior depth (in inches) for the fresh food section.
2. Do the same for the freezer section.
3. Add the two cubic-inch totals together.
4. Divide by 1,728 (12 × 12 × 12) to convert to cubic feet.

• Use interior measurements, not exterior cabinet measurements
• Measure usable space (ignore rounded corners and unusable gaps)
• Remove bins/shelves only if they block accurate measuring

Why it matters

Outside dimensions help you confirm the refrigerator fits your kitchen opening and has proper ventilation. Cubic feet helps you compare storage capacity across Kenmore side-by-side models and choose correctly sized replacement shelves, bins, and drawers.

On Kenmore model 10658522700, the SY EF (or 5Y EF) code points to a problem in the evaporator fan circuit. In most cases, the freezer evaporator fan is not running correctly due to ice buildup, a failed fan motor, wiring issues, or a control problem; check the 10658522700 owner's manual for model-specific troubleshooting steps.

What to check first (fast, common fixes)

• Power reset: Unplug the refrigerator for 5 minutes, then restore power.
• Freezer airflow: Make sure packages are not blocking the rear freezer vents.
• Door sealing: Confirm the freezer door closes fully and the gasket is sealing.
• Ice buildup: Look for frost on the freezer back wall (a sign of a defrost issue).
• Fan noise: Listen for the evaporator fan; it should run when cooling is needed.

Likely causes and what they mean

What you notice	Most likely issue	What to do next
Loud grinding or squealing from freezer	Fan blade hitting ice or failing motor	Defrost ice, inspect fan area
Heavy frost on freezer back wall	Defrost system problem	Check defrost heater and defrost thermostat
No fan sound, warm freezer	Fan motor not running or no power to fan	Inspect wiring, test motor and control
Code returns after reset	Ongoing circuit fault	Diagnose fan circuit components

Parts that commonly relate to SY EF symptoms

If you confirm a defrost problem (frost buildup restricting airflow), these model-compatible parts are common suspects:

• Refrigerator defrost bi-metal WPW10225581 (defrost thermostat)
• Refrigerator heater WP2323198 (defrost heater)

Why it matters

The evaporator fan moves cold air through the freezer and into the fresh food section. When the fan circuit fails, temperatures rise, ice production drops, and the compressor can run longer than normal.

On Kenmore side-by-side refrigerator model 10658522700, 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, diagrams, and troubleshooting info in the 10658522700 owner's manual.

Where to look on the refrigerator

On most Kenmore side-by-side refrigerators, the ID label is in one of these common spots:

• Inside the fresh food (refrigerator) compartment on a side wall
• Along the ceiling of the fresh food compartment near the light housing
• On the frame around the fresh food door opening (hinge side)
• Inside the freezer compartment on a side wall
• Behind the base grille area (less common, but possible)

What you should see on the label

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

• Model number: identifies the exact design (needed for correct parts)
• Serial number: identifies the production unit (often used for service history)
• Electrical ratings: voltage and amperage information

Quick ID checklist

• Write the model number exactly as shown (letters and numbers)
• Take a clear photo of the label before ordering parts
• Use the full model number, not just the “106” prefix

Why it matters

Kenmore model numbers can look similar across different refrigerator builds. Using the exact model number (like 10658522700) prevents ordering the wrong items such as a water filter, ice maker, door gasket, or electronic control.
