Description

This inverter is the compressor drive module that controls variable-speed compressor operation to regulate refrigerator cooling. Replacing a failed inverter restores proper compressor control and helps the refrigerator maintain stable temperatures. What it does:

• Converts and regulates power to the compressor motor for variable-speed operation
• Helps the fridge adjust cooling output to maintain consistent temperatures
• Can cause cooling loss or compressor failure symptoms when faulty
• Common symptoms: refrigerator not cooling, compressor not starting or intermittently stopping, or error codes related to inverter/drive

What's included:

• One inverter

Install notes:

• Disconnect power before servicing to avoid shock or component damage
• Handle the module and connectors carefully—avoid static discharge and contact with circuit traces
• Installation typically requires access to the compressor area/power board and secure mounting of the inverter
