Kenmore Refrigerator 106.54903300 (10654903300, 106 54903300) Parts

This PTC start relay mounts on the compressor and momentarily powers the start winding to get the motor running, then disengages for normal operation. Replacing a weak relay can stop repeated clicking and help restore cooling.

• Provides initial boost to the compressor's start winding for reliable startup
• Automatically drops out after startup so the compressor runs on the run winding
• Helps address symptoms like warm temperatures, compressor clicking or humming without starting, or frequent overload trips
• Failure may show as rattling, burn marks, or a melted relay housing

• Disconnect power and remove the rear access panel to reach the compressor
• Allow components to cool; note wire locations and take a reference photo
• Pull the old relay straight off the compressor pins; align and firmly seat the new relay in the same orientation, then reconnect wires
• If your unit uses a run capacitor and/or separate overload protector, reconnect per the wiring diagram before restoring power

This dispenser motor assembly drives the refrigerator's in-door ice dispenser so cubes dispense when you press the paddle. Replacing a weak, seized, or noisy motor restores smooth, reliable operation of the dispenser mechanism. What it does:

• Works with the switch and control to deliver ice on demand
• Failure can cause no ice dispensing, a humming/clicking noise, or intermittent operation
• Present as the auger/drive not turning even though the dispenser is selected

• One dispenser motor assembly

• Disconnect power to the refrigerator before servicing
• Access the dispenser area per your model; remove trim/covers carefully to avoid breaking tabs and watch for sharp edges
• Note wire lead orientation and mounting layout; transfer any reusable brackets or spacers from the old unit
• Restore power and test dispenser for proper operation after reassembly
