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 coupling is the small connector that links a drive motor to its mating component, transferring rotation so the appliance operates smoothly. Replacing a cracked or stripped coupling restores reliable drive and helps prevent further wear.

• Connects the motor shaft to the driven part to transmit torque
• Maintains alignment to reduce wobble and slippage
• Failure signs can include no movement, intermittent operation, clicking/grinding, or visible cracks/rounding
• Restores consistent motion of the connected part once replaced

• Disconnect power (and shut off water/gas if applicable) before servicing
• Access the drive area and remove any covers/tray/drive components as needed
• Pull the old coupling straight off the keyed or D-shaped shaft; clean and inspect the shaft
• Align and press the new coupling fully onto the shaft, reassemble, and test

An ice maker delay mechanism is the small timing device that staggers the steps of the ice-making cycle so each action happens in the right order. Replacing a worn unit helps restore steady, predictable ice production.

• Provides a brief, controlled delay in the ice maker cycle so components engage in the correct order
• Helps prevent short cycling or erratic operation
• Failure may result in no ice, intermittent ice, or stalls mid-cycle
• May be accompanied by repeated clicking or ticking from the ice maker head

• Disconnect power to the refrigerator and shut off the water supply before servicing
• Remove the ice maker assembly to access the delay mechanism
• Transfer any brackets or clips from the original part if required
• Align components carefully during reassembly to avoid bending any lever arms

Ice stripper removes ice cubes from the ice maker mold so the dispenser or storage bin fills properly. Replacing a worn or broken stripper helps the ice maker eject cubes cleanly and reduces ice jams or stuck cubes. What it does:

• Pushes or guides harvested cubes out of the ice mold into the bin during the ice maker's harvest cycle.
• Prevents cubes from sticking in the mold; a damaged stripper can cause incomplete ejection or leftover ice in the mold.
• Works with the ice maker's ejector mechanism to maintain consistent cube release and storage.
• A faulty or broken stripper may lead to noisy operation, partial fills, or visible ice build-up in the mold.

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair to avoid electrical shock.
• Remove the ice maker or access panel per the manufacturer's instructions to reach the stripper; keep small parts and screws organized.
• Inspect the ice mold and surrounding components for damage or ice build-up; clear ice before installing the new stripper.
• After installation, restore power and run a test harvest cycle to ensure proper cube ejection.

This freezer door gasket creates a tight seal around the door to keep cold air in and humid air out. Replacing a worn gasket restores proper temperature control, reduces frost, and helps the door close and seal correctly.

• Seals the gap between the freezer door and cabinet to maintain cold temperatures
