Description

This compressor overload protects the refrigerator compressor from overheating and electrical overcurrent, helping prevent compressor burnout and premature failure. It restores proper compressor protection so the cooling system can run reliably. What it does

• Senses excessive current/temperature at the compressor and interrupts power to prevent damage
• Stops compressor from attempting to run when internal protection is triggered, which can reduce buzzing or repeated start attempts
• Helps prevent compressor burnout and prolonged electrical faults from damaging the cooling system
• Commonly replaced when compressor won't start, hums continuously, or trips the circuit repeatedly

What's included One compressor overload component Install notes

• Disconnect power to the appliance before inspecting or replacing the overload
• Handle the part carefully; avoid crushing or bending terminals and mounting tabs
• The overload matches the compressor terminal layout before installation
