Cheryl S Frisco , TX January 05, 2015 Mini refrigerator stopped working completely First I googled the problem and found that it was probably the PTC Starter and found that it was roughly $30. Replacing the Fridge would have been about $150 (plus my time, etc.) since it is a larger model, so I ordered the part. The only problem was in removing the cover off of the thing that the starter is plugged in to. You need to use a screw driver to push into (like you do to release the copper wires from an electrical outlet or switch). Also, the starter had two other extensions (total of 3) for plugs my fridge didn't have, so I covered them in electrical tape in case they became hot once plugged in. Total time to fix - about 30 minutes. Once all connected it started right up and is happily cooling extra beers downstairs right now! 13 People found this story helpful Do-It-Yourself Rating: Repair Time Estimate: 15-30 minutes
