Customer Questions and Answers for Freezer Compressor Overload Protector by Whirlpool

Scott, You should have no 0 (infinite resistance) "open" circuit readings. The overload WP2214067 should have a "closed" circuit (000) across the terminals at all times. The capacitor WPW10662129 when tested, your meter will deflect towards a "closed" circuit, then drop back down to 0 (infinite resistance). You'll need to remove the the start relay W10920279 from the compressor and test from the top pin (c) to the pin on the bottom left(start) and you should read 3 to 11 ohms. and from the top pin to the the bottom right pin (run) should read 1 to 6 ohms resistance. Make sure you label or mark the wires when you remove them from the terminals on the components.
