Joe A Macon , MO May 15, 2015 Appliance: Frigidaire Refrigerator FRS23LH5DSP My frig was shutting off for an hour them might restart or might not for 2 hours I thought it might be timer module but after checking wiring schematic I found that condensor fan and compressor were on same circut. My condensor fan was running when compressor was not and I rulled that out. I used a DVOM to test ohms and amps draw and they were normal. I ordered a starter kit. Installed that and that fixed the frig. Thanks. Read More... 1 People found this story helpful Do-It-Yourself Rating: Repair Time Estimate: 1-2 hours Tools: Socket Set

Ronald S Indianapolis , IN November 12, 2022 Ther start cycle for compressor was shot on our Frigidaire side by side refrigerator/freezer. Perfectly. As always, the “how to” videos associated with each part ensure that I ordered the correct part on the front end and am able to successfully replace the broken part when it gets here. This is the third repair on my current fridge and saving me thousands of dollars not having to buy a new fridge. Read More...

Russell R Phoenix , AZ October 06, 2021 Appliance: Frigidaire Refrigerator FRS23H5ASB8 The refrigerator fan worked but compressor would not turn on. Move the fridge to expose the back, unplug, remove the back cover. Pulled out the old run capacitor and relay. Noticed a burned part on the bottom plastic and rattling sound of loose parts inside. Spliced a new compressor start kit onto the old wires. The heat shrink tubing is too big and red spade connectors go unused. Read More...

William M Shorewood , IL October 29, 2020 My 30 year old Frigidaire commercial 22 cu ft freezer just quit while loaded with food last June. Most repair companies said it was not worth repairing. First off we thought we had lost a fortune in food that we had to throw away since we were out of town when this failure occurred. After unsuccessfully attempting to get any repair companies to even come out due to the age of the appliance, we thought we will just buy a new one since that was our last option. We started looking and there were no upright freezers available anywhere. Everyone told us to order several at each store and when one came in we could have it delivered. Well we have been on several lists since June and still do not have a freezer. So I started looking on line and found your web site and watched the video on what it might be and then I decided to order the compressor starter kit. I installed it in about 15 minutes and my freezer is back up and running and working just fine. We are so thankful for your videos and you parts availability. With the pandemic its so essential to have a supply of food just in case. Read More... Do-It-Yourself Rating: Repair Time Estimate: Less than 15 minutes Tools: Pliers, Socket Set
