Part 10656924600 — What It Is and How to Identify and Replace It

Understanding the Problem

Brief explanation: 10656924600 is an OEM-style part number but by itself doesn't identify the exact component without the appliance brand and model. The most reliable way to proceed is to confirm the part-to-appliance match (so you replace the correct component) and then follow standard diagnostic and replacement steps. Below are clear, numbered steps you can follow to identify, diagnose, and replace the part, plus safety instructions. 1) Confirm the part identity and compatibility a. Locate your appliance model number (usually on a sticker inside the door frame, behind a kickplate, or on the back). b. Enter the model number and the part number (10656924600) into the manufacturer's parts lookup (Whirlpool/Maytag/Frigidaire/GE sites) or a reputable parts seller (RepairClinic, PartSelect, AppliancePartsPros). c. Compare the exploded view / parts diagram to confirm the exact part name, appearance, and position. 2) Inspect the existing part and symptoms a. Unplug the appliance and turn off water/gas if applicable. b. Open the service access panel and visually compare the installed part to the parts diagram and photos from the parts site. c. Note physical damage (broken plastic, melted connectors, corrosion, burnt electronics) and loose or disconnected wiring. 3) Basic electrical/mechanical tests (if applicable) a. For electrical parts: use a multimeter to check continuity and voltage per the component’s expected values (consult the service manual). b. For mechanical parts: check for free movement, broken gear teeth, seized bearings, or leaks. 4) Order the correct replacement part a. Only order once you have confirmed compatibility using the appliance model number and the OEM part listing. b. Keep the original part until you confirm the new part fixes the issue. 5) Replace the part — step-by-step (generic procedure) a. Safety first: unplug the appliance, shut off water supply and gas if applicable, and wear safety gloves and eye protection. b. Remove the access panel(s) required to reach the part (screwdriver/socket set). Keep track of screws and their locations. c. Photograph the wiring and harness routing before disconnecting anything — this makes reassembly straightforward. d. Disconnect electrical connectors by hand (do not pull on wires), and remove mounting screws or clips holding the part. e. Install the new part in the reverse order: mount the part, reconnect connectors, and secure with screws/clips. f. Reinstall access panels, restore power/water/gas, and run a test cycle to confirm the repair. 6) Troubleshoot if the new part doesn't fix it a. Re-check wiring and connectors for continuity or loose connections. b. Confirm you ordered the correct part number and that it’s installed with correct orientation. c. Check related components — control board, harness, fuses/thermal cutouts — that could cause the same symptoms. Safety note: Always disconnect power at the wall or breaker before working on an appliance. For gas appliances, shut off the gas supply and, if unsure, call a qualified technician. If a repair requires soldering, gas valve work, or complex diagnostics, hire a pro.
