W10613606 Whirlpool Refrigerator Start Device Relay Overload

100% Guaranteed genuine parts logo
This Refrigerator Compressor Start Device and Capacitor attaches to the compressor and helps the compressor turn on and off while maintaining a constant temperature to keep things frozen in your freezer. The start relay boosts the compressor, and then shuts off as soon as the motor gets up to speed. The overload provides extra protection against excessive temperatures. If your refrigerator or freezer is too warm or won't turn on at all, replacing this assembly may alleviate these issues. You will need advanced mechanical training to make this repair. Specialized tools, complex testing and appliance calibration are required including but not limited to recovering and recharging the coolant in the sealed refrigeration system. We strongly recommend that you hire a qualified technician to safely install this part. Also turn off the refrigerator's water supply before you begin.
