Refrigerator not cooling or compressor won't start? This overload protector prevents motor damage from overheating. DIY-friendly fix in under 30 minutes.
Used a muiltimeter to test all parts and ohm'ed out all parts. found out condenser fan motor seized up [open winding in motor] replaced that, and found that also caused the compressor overload and relay to fail, from over heating and over cycling, replaced both parts, powered up the refrigerator retested all electrical parts checked amp reading on all parts under load conditions,works good know, hope to get another 15 years out of this refrigator, its a maytag. over 20 years old.

Compressor won't start or kicks out after trying? This overload protector prevents motor damage. DIY-friendly repair, takes about 30 minutes to replace.
I read alot of blogs about the same similar symptom, but none described by exact problem. I kept reading how the compressor relay would make a click noise or sisal. I also found out the overload switch could cause a like symptom. The end result being that upon removal of the relay, it was discolored and made a rattling noise when shook. The overload switch was heat cracked on the plastic and looked like it had had enough. This was easily accomplished by using the repair mans print out for the... Read more
Refrigerator clicking but not cooling? A failed compressor starter prevents reliable startup. This part restores proper cooling by helping the compressor start.
This electronic controller is the central board that governs your unit's cooling system. It processes temperature inputs and controls key components so the freezer maintains set temperature when the original board fails.
If your ice maker stops cooling or the compressor won't run, the overload protector may have failed. This component shields the compressor from damage.
This is a start relay device that attaches to the compressor and provides the initial electrical boost needed to start the compressor motor. It works in conjunction with the run capacitor to get the compressor running and then disengages once the motor reaches operating speed. Replace this device if the refrigerator is not cooling, the compressor clicks on and off repeatedly, or you hear a buzzing sound coming from the back of the unit.
Works perfect now Read more
Refrigerator won't cool or compressor clicks but won't start? This PTC start relay powers the compressor's start winding. Common DIY fix, restores cooling.
I ordered the compressor starting device kit and run capacitor to replace the burnt parts. It works right off the bat! The parts are for a Kenmore fridge/freezer. Saves Money and a trip to Dumping place. Great product and great Price. This is the second time I fix friends fridge/freezer with this repair kit from this site. Great Service! Read more

Fix a refrigerator that won't start or hums but doesn't run with this compressor start capacitor. Restores reliable cooling when the compressor fails to start.
Now it was running smoothly with the additional temperatures that I replace in the Freezer side and the refrigerator side. Also,replaced the capacitors for the compressors to start the systems. Set up the temperature to 4 degree F Freezer side and 45 degree F on the Refrigerator side. Is okay now and Thank you for all the parts and all your groups help and information. Thanks again.

Refrigerator won't start or stops running? A failed capacitor disrupts motor circuits. This film radial capacitor restores voltage stability and operation.
For an emergency fix I installed a 3 in1 kit disabling the original start cap and wiring in the original run cap to the run winding. Ordered the proper PTC and overload from Appliance Parts Pros and installed them 2 weeks later. The original start and run capacitor were good, rewired back to design specs. The original PTC had pins 1,2 and 3, the replacement had 2,3 and 4. Only wiring change was to install the red wire from pin 1 on the original PTC to pin 4 on the new PTC. Read more
