Parts for Amana RC07090A1DR: 01 - Compressor Assy Parts

This rubber grommet protects and cushions wiring or components where they pass through a cabinet opening, helping prevent abrasion and reducing vibration noise. It restores a clean seal and keeps harnesses routed safely. What it does:

• Cushions and protects wires or hoses from sharp cabinet edges to prevent chafing
• Dampens vibration and movement where components pass through openings
• Helps maintain a simple seal around a harness or conduit to reduce drafts
• Keeps routing tidy to avoid contact with moving parts or hot surfaces

• Disconnect power to the appliance before beginning any repair
• Lubricate lightly with soapy water for easier installation; avoid petroleum-based solvents that can degrade rubber
• Use care with tools—work from both sides of the panel if accessible to avoid tearing the grommet

This compressor overload switch helps protect the compressor by interrupting power if the motor overheats or draws excessive current. It replaces a failed thermal overload to help restore normal compressor starting and operation. What it does:

• Acts as a thermal protector that opens the circuit when the compressor overheats or is overloaded
• Prevents compressor damage by cutting power during abnormal current draw or excessive temperature
• Commonly replaced when a refrigerator or freezer won't start or the compressor runs intermittently
• Works with the start device to allow proper compressor starting and cycling

• 1 overload switch for the compressor

• Disconnect power to the appliance before accessing the compressor compartment
• Located on or near the compressor; access usually requires removing the rear service panel
• Handle terminals carefully and reattach wiring exactly as found; secure mounting is required for proper function
