Kenmore Elite 10658706802 side-by-side refrigerator Parts

For Kenmore Elite model 10658706802, the most reliable way to get the refrigerator’s cubic feet is to look up the capacity in the specifications section of the 10658706802 owner's manual. If you do not have the spec listed, you can estimate cubic feet by measuring the usable interior space and converting cubic inches to cubic feet.

• Check the specifications section in the 10658706802 owner's manual.
• Look for a model and serial tag inside the fresh food section (often on a side wall, ceiling area, or near the crisper drawers) and compare the full model number to published specs.
• Measure the interior usable space (not the outside cabinet size) and calculate an estimate.
• If you are comparing similar Kenmore models, use the model number only as a starting point; capacity is not consistently encoded in Kenmore model numbers.

1. Empty the compartment enough to measure accurately.
2. Measure the usable interior:
   • Width (inches)
   • Depth (inches)
   • Height (inches)
3. Multiply: width × depth × height = cubic inches.
4. Convert to cubic feet: cubic inches ÷ 1728 = cubic feet.

Manufacturers typically publish capacity based on standardized measurement methods, while at-home measurements often differ because of:

• Shelves, bins, and air channels reducing usable space
• Curved interior walls and door storage
• Divider walls between refrigerator and freezer sections

For a side-by-side refrigerator like 10658706802, we recommend calculating fresh food and freezer sections separately, then adding them together for a closer estimate.

If your Kenmore Elite 10658706802 side-by-side refrigerator isn’t making ice, the most common causes are a shutoff or restricted water supply, a frozen fill tube, or an ice maker that’s turned off or jammed. Start by confirming water flow to the refrigerator and clearing any ice blockage.

• Make sure the ice maker switch or arm is in the ON position.
• Confirm the freezer temperature is cold enough; most ice makers need about 0°F to cycle reliably.
• Check the household shutoff valve is fully open and the supply line isn’t kinked.
• Look for a frozen or clogged ice maker fill tube (ice buildup at the back of the freezer).
• Dump old cubes and clear a jammed ejector or stuck ice in the mold.

A weak fill can stop ice production even when the dispenser still works.

If your filter is overdue, replacing it is a strong first step for this model. Use the exact filter designed for the housing and cap style on your refrigerator: genuine Kenmore refrigerator water filter EDR3RXD1.

If the ice maker is on and the mold stays dry, the water inlet valve may not be opening for the ice maker circuit, or the fill tube may be freezing from a slow drip.

• Inspect the fill tube for ice; thaw it with a hair dryer on low (keep heat moving).
• Check for seepage at the valve that can slowly freeze the fill tube.
• If the valve is electrically or mechanically failing, replacement is typical: refrigerator water inlet valve WP2321753.

An ice maker depends on steady water flow and correct freezer temperature. Fixing a restriction early helps prevent repeated fill-tube freeze-ups, hollow cubes, and slow ice production.

For model-specific control locations and ice maker on/off details, follow the steps in the 10658706802 owner's manual.

On Kenmore Elite model 10658706802, the ER FF error points to a problem with the freezer evaporator fan circuit (the fan that moves cold air through the freezer and into the fresh food section). When that airflow drops, temperatures rise and the control displays ER FF. See the 10658706802 owner's manual for model-specific diagnostics and reset steps.

• Power reset: Unplug the refrigerator for 5 minutes, then restore power and watch for the code returning.
• Airflow blockage: Make sure packages are not blocking the freezer air vents or the fan cover.
• Ice buildup: Heavy frost on the freezer back panel often indicates a defrost problem that can slow or stop the fan.
• Door sealing: A leaking gasket can cause excess frost and airflow issues.
• Fan noise: A working evaporator fan usually runs when the compressor is running; silence can indicate a failed motor or jammed blade.

If troubleshooting points to a failed component, these parts are commonly related to ER FF conditions on this style of Kenmore side-by-side:

• Refrigerator evaporator fan blade WP2169142 (damaged blade, rubbing, imbalance)
• Refrigerator evaporator fan motor WP2315549 (fan not running or intermittent)
• Refrigerator defrost heater WP2323198 (ice buildup restricting airflow)
• Refrigerator bi-metal thermostat WPW10225581 (defrost not cycling correctly)

The evaporator fan is what distributes cold air. If it slows down or stops, the refrigerator section can warm up even if the freezer still feels cold, and the compressor may run longer, increasing frost and temperature swings.

Yes. For Kenmore Elite model 10658706802, the most reliable reset is a hard reset: unplug the refrigerator (or switch off the breaker) for about 5 minutes, then restore power and allow 24 hours for temperatures to fully stabilize. For indicator lights, use the reset steps in the 10658706802 owner's manual.

• Hard reset (recommended): Unplug for ~5 minutes, then plug back in.
• Power cycle at breaker: Turn the refrigerator circuit off for ~5 minutes, then back on.
• Control panel reset for a specific function: Some functions (like filter status) reset from the dispenser or temperature controls; follow the exact button sequence in the 10658706802 owner's manual.
• After a reset: Confirm the doors close tightly and air vents are not blocked by food packages.

A reset is useful for temporary control glitches, odd display behavior, or after a brief power interruption. It will not fix a failed component such as a defrost heater, evaporator fan motor, or electronic control.

• Set temperatures to normal targets (typical: 0°F freezer, 37°F refrigerator).
• Wait 10 to 15 minutes and listen for the evaporator fan and compressor.
• Verify the condenser area is not packed with dust and the toe grille is clear.
• If water flow is weak, replace the filter and reseat the cap; a clogged filter can mimic a “needs reset” problem.
• If the filter light is on, reset the indicator after installing the correct filter.

• Genuine Kenmore refrigerator water filter EDR3RXD1 (low water flow, filter light)
• Refrigerator electronic control W11629974 (display or cooling control issues)
• Refrigerator electronic control board WPW10209636 (intermittent operation)

Resetting clears minor control-board glitches and restores normal operation quickly, but repeated need for resets usually points to an underlying issue (airflow restriction, temperature sensor/defrost problem, or a failing control).
