The Start Device is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators. It is a critical component that helps initiate the compressor, enabling the refrigerator to start the cooling process. This device provides the necessary electrical boost to get the compressor running and then disengages once the compressor is up to speed.

Some common causes of a faulty start device include electrical issues, wear and tear, or damage from power surges. A malfunctioning start device can prevent the compressor from starting, leading to cooling problems in your refrigerator.

Symptoms of a bad start device include:

  • Refrigerator not cooling properly
  • Clicking noises coming from the refrigerator
  • Compressor not running
  • Overheating of the refrigerator

This OEM Whirlpool part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper and some Kenmore models.
