Parts for Kenmore 867.768282 (867768282, 867 768282): Functional Replacement Parts

This fan and limit control regulates furnace blower operation and provides a safety high-limit cutout to help prevent overheating. It replaces a failed control to restore normal blower cycling and overheat protection. What it does:

• Senses heat and energizes the blower on warm-up, then shuts the blower off as the heat exchanger cools
• Opens the circuit at a high temperature to stop the burner if the furnace overheats
• Commonly used when the blower won't turn on, runs continuously, or the furnace overheats
• Works as the temperature-activated switching and safety control in forced-air furnaces

• One fan and limit control

• For experienced DIYers only; disconnect power before servicing
• Follow OEM instructions and local codes; replace with the exact part number when required

This oval run capacitor provides the necessary phase-shift for single-phase appliance motors, helping them run smoothly and reliably. It replaces a failed run capacitor to restore normal motor performance and reduce motor stress. What it does

• Supplies the motor with steady run capacitance to maintain rotation and efficiency
• Commonly associated with symptoms like motor humming, slow or no start, or intermittent motor operation
• Helps prevent overheating and excessive current draw when functioning properly
• Works as a direct replacement when the original is the same shape, voltage rating, and terminal configuration

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing to avoid electric shock
• Discharge the capacitor safely before touching terminals (use an insulated tool with proper procedure)
• Replace only with a capacitor that matches the original's voltage rating, capacitance, and terminal layout
