Brent for Model Number ts25afxkq03 Smoke was coming out from the back of the fridge, we took off the back panel and noticed the starter device was burned. Not only is the starter device fried, the male parts that are attached to the compressor are fried so bad that they need to be replaced. I don't see a way to remove the plate were these male parts are that would attach to the starter device. Do I need to replace the compressor now too? The fridge is 9 years old.
Answer Hello Brent. Based on the information you provided, it sounds like the compressor W10309994 will need to be replaced in the unit. You can not order the prongs in the side of the compressor. Hope this helps. Read More... Answered by AppliancePartsPros.com | Wednesday, September 28, 2011
