Kenmore 10658129700 refrigerator Parts

On Kenmore side-by-side refrigerator model 10658129700, the model number is printed on the appliance identification label (the same label that also lists the serial number). We use that model number to match the correct parts list and the right Kenmore refrigerator manual for your exact unit.

Where to look first (fastest checks)

• Open the fresh food (refrigerator) door and inspect the inner cabinet walls near the front opening
• Check the side wall around crisper-drawer height
• Look along the top interior trim area near the ceiling of the compartment
• If you do not see it in the refrigerator section, check the freezer-side interior walls
• Use a flashlight; the label is often small and easy to miss

What the label looks like (model vs. serial)

The ID label typically includes both a model number and a serial number. The serial number format varies by production run, so use the model number (for example, 10658129700) when ordering parts.

Item on the label	What it’s used for	Example you’ll see
Model number	Identifies the exact design and parts for your refrigerator	10658129700
Serial number	Identifies the specific unit and production details	Varies

Why it matters

Kenmore 106-series refrigerators can look similar across multiple models, but parts like the water filter, ice maker, and water inlet valve can differ. Using the exact model number helps us match components like the genuine Kenmore refrigerator water filter EDR3RXD1 and avoid ordering the wrong replacement.

After you find the model number

• Compare the label’s model number to the parts list for an exact match
• Use the owner's manual to confirm feature locations (dispenser controls, chilled door bin control, water system flushing)
• If you are ordering parts beyond the common items, search by the full model number on Sears PartsDirect

Common Kenmore Elite refrigerator problems include warm temperatures (cooling failure), ice maker or water dispenser trouble, unusual noises, and water leaks. On Kenmore model 10658129700, these symptoms are often tied to airflow issues, water system restrictions, door sealing problems, or defrost-related icing; our 10658129700 owner's manual troubleshooting section covers the quickest checks.

Most common symptoms and what usually causes them

• Not cooling or uneven cooling: blocked air vents, dirty condenser area, evaporator fan issues, or a control/thermostat problem
• Ice maker not making ice: restricted water supply, clogged filter, inlet valve issue, or freezer temperature too warm
• Water leaking: clogged/iced defrost drain, loose water line connections, or dispenser/ice maker supply issues
• Noisy operation: normal valve buzz during ice maker fill, fan/compressor speed changes, or vibration/rattling from cabinet contact
• Runs a lot: frequent door openings, warm room, large food load, or doors not sealing well

Quick checks we recommend first (safe, no tools)

1. Confirm the controls are on and set to normal temperatures (not just “coldest”).
2. Allow 24 hours after a new install or major setting change for temperatures to stabilize.
3. Make sure vents inside both compartments are not blocked by food packages.
4. If water or ice is slow right after a filter change, flush the system and discard the first glass of water.
5. Listen for when the noise happens (during ice maker fill, right after door close, or constantly).

Parts that commonly solve these problems on 10658129700

Symptom	Common part involved	Example part for this model
Slow/no water, poor ice production	Water filter	Genuine Kenmore refrigerator water filter EDR3RXD1
No ice, no water, or weak fill	Water inlet valve	Refrigerator water inlet valve W10408179
Temperature swings or warm fridge	Temperature control	Refrigerator thermostat WP2198202
Door not closing right, door sag	Hinge/cam hardware	Refrigerator door cam (black) WP2182179

Why it matters

Cooling, ice, and leak complaints often share the same root causes: restricted airflow, a partially blocked water path (filter or valve), or frost buildup from a defrost/drain issue. Fixing the underlying cause protects food temperatures and helps the compressor and fans run normally.

On Kenmore model 10658129700, a bad compressor usually shows up as poor cooling with the unit running longer than normal, repeated clicking as it tries to start, or abnormal heat at the compressor area. First rule out normal “new” operating sounds and basic power or control issues using the 10658129700 owner's manual.

Quick checks before blaming the compressor

Many “compressor” complaints are caused by power, settings, airflow, or normal high-efficiency operation.

• Confirm the refrigerator has power (outlet works, breaker not tripped).
• Make sure the temperature controls are turned on and set correctly.
• If it is a new install or was unplugged, allow 24 hours to cool completely.
• Expect longer run times in warm rooms, after loading groceries, or with frequent door openings.
• Listen for normal sounds like pulsating (compressor/fans adjusting) or refrigerant gurgling.

Symptoms that strongly point to a compressor or start system problem

These signs are more consistent with a compressor that is failing to start or run properly.

• Clicking every few minutes (start device tries, then trips off)
• Runs constantly but temperatures stay warm in both fresh food and freezer
• No steady compressor hum when cooling is needed (only brief attempts)
• Compressor shell extremely hot to the touch after repeated start attempts
• Breaker trips when the compressor tries to start

What to test (and what parts are commonly involved)

A compressor diagnosis is usually confirmed with electrical checks (continuity, amperage draw) and start-circuit inspection.

What you observe	Most common cause	What to do next
Clicking, won’t start	Start components or compressor locked	Have the start circuit and compressor tested; replace failed component(s)
Runs but not cooling	Sealed system issue or weak compressor	Check condenser airflow and frost pattern; sealed system service may be needed
Long run time but temps OK	Normal high-efficiency operation	Verify door closing habits and airflow; monitor temps for 24 hours

If testing confirms the compressor itself is failed, the replacement compressor for this model is refrigerator compressor W10309990.

Why it matters

A compressor is the heart of the cooling system. Misdiagnosing it can lead to unnecessary cost, because normal high-efficiency run time, fan noise, or a simple control or power issue can look like a compressor failure.

If the ice maker on your Kenmore 10658129700 isn’t making ice, the most common causes are the ice maker being switched off (wire shutoff arm up), the water shutoff valve being closed, or restricted water flow from a kinked supply line. Confirm the on/off arm position and water supply first, then move to valve and filter checks using the owner's manual.

Quick checks (fastest fixes first)

• Make sure the wire shutoff arm is down (ON); the bin can lift it up when full.
• Verify the refrigerator is connected to water and the shutoff valve is fully open.
• Inspect the 1/4-inch water line behind the unit for kinks, pinches, or crushing.
• If this is a new install or the ice maker was just turned on, wait 24 hours for the first ice and up to 72 hours for full production.
• Discard the first three batches of ice after startup or service.

Water supply and filtration issues to rule out

Restricted water flow can stop the ice maker from filling properly.

• If your water quality needs it, the manual notes the ice maker has a built-in strainer, but a second strainer can be installed in the 1/4-inch line.
• Replace an overdue water filter; a clogged filter can reduce flow to the ice maker.
• If the dispenser water is also weak or stops, the inlet valve is a prime suspect.

Common parts related to “no ice”

Symptom	Most likely area	Part to consider
No ice and no water at dispenser	Water supply or inlet valve	Refrigerator water inlet valve W10408179
Slow ice production	Restricted flow or warm temps	Genuine Kenmore refrigerator water filter EDR3RXD1
Ice maker cycles but won’t fill	Fill problem at valve/line	Refrigerator water inlet valve W10408179

Why it matters

An ice maker depends on steady water pressure and correct shutoff arm position. Fixing a simple kinked line or closed valve prevents unnecessary part replacement and helps restore normal ice production quickly.

The Kenmore side-by-side refrigerator model 10658129700 is 35 5/8 inches wide (overall cabinet width). For installation planning, also account for door swing and any handle projection; the dimension diagram in the 10658129700 owner's manual shows the full footprint.

What “width” should you use?

Use the measurement that matches what you are trying to fit:

• Overall cabinet width: the main box width (35 5/8 in. for 10658129700)
• Overall width with doors/handles: can be wider than the cabinet
• Opening (cutout) width: the space between cabinets or walls
• Door swing clearance: space needed so doors open fully

Measurement	What it affects	What to do
Cabinet width	Will the refrigerator physically fit	Compare to your cutout width
Width with handles	Passing through doorways, tight side clearances	Measure the widest point
Door swing clearance	Access to shelves, bins, and ice/water area	Leave extra space near walls

Installation clearance guidance (important for fit)

This Kenmore side-by-side style uses standard ventilation and wall-clearance rules:

• Allow 1/2 inch on each side and at the top for airflow
• If installed next to a fixed wall, allow 2 inches minimum on the hinge side so doors can swing open
• If the unit has an ice maker, leave extra space behind for the water line connection

Why it matters

Using the correct width prevents airflow restriction (poor cooling), avoids cabinet rubbing, and ensures the doors open far enough to remove shelves and bins.
