Colin P. April 20, 2015 for Model Number FRS24ZGHW2 How do I replace the relay with part # 5304410951? This is not same as the one that I have. Help
1 Answer Hello Colin, The replacement part is a longer lasting design. The red white will connect to the small white device, (overload). The white wire, (or light blue depending on the model), will connect to terminal 2 along with one capacitor wire, (if applicable). If there is a capacitor, the other side will connect to terminal 3. (As a note terminals 1 and 2 are the same point electrically). Read More...
Arthur October 19, 2014 for Model Number S1110LKAA The blue Neutral wire from the power cable got cut, now I don't know where to connect it. Its a 3 wire cable... Brown, Blue, and green-yellow striped. The fridge is a K.I.C Bar Fridge... Please help. Thanks
1 Answer Hello Arthur. Just use a butt connector and splice the wire back together. It should be fine. Read More...
Odysseus October 04, 2014 for Model Number frs26zghb2 The refrigerator stopped working and I discovered the breaker in the panel had tripped. My son turned the breaker back on before I had a chance to check the problem, and about 45 minutes later the refrigerator had an burning odor like wiring overheating. I shut the breaker back off and checked the back of the unit. the compressor fan was covered in dust, ( no surprise ) and the fan motor was seized up. I could still turn it but it was not spinning freely as it should be. So my question is this...Obviously the fan motor went bad and tripped the breaker the first time. After the breaker was turned back on and the unit powered back up without the fan working, would the compressor overload relay switch have shut off the compressor to protect it? Or is the burning smell possibly the compressor burning up?
1 Answer Odysseus, Most likely the fan was not the cause of the breaker to trip. The fan may have stopped running previously and just unnoticed and the issue could be that the relay on the compressor could be faulty. If the relay is not the issue then the compressor may have shorted out. Read More...
Jeff August 01, 2014 for Model Number FR326ZSH I have a FR326ZSH Fridge. I purchased 5304410951, whichc replaced 218721106. The White part seems t only go on nepin of compressor, should I assume it is the correct pin? Also, my fride only has two wires, but the black part has 4 terminals. Where do the two wires go?
1 Answer Jeff, The 2 white wire will go to the terminals that line up the same as the pins on the compressor. Read More...
Rodolfo May 29, 2014 for Model Number 5304410951 I have a Frigidaire model number FRS26ZGGW6, I recently bought a new relay for my fridge and I'm trying to figure out which wire goes to which terminal. I have the white (overload) and the black piece (I think it's called the starter?). The wire colors I have are, RED, GREEN, BLUE.
1 Answer Hello Rodolfo, Red goes to the white component called the overload. It is the hot wire. Green should go to chassis ground and the blue wire will go to terminal 2 on the start relay, (the black piece). Read More...
Gary April 10, 2014 for Model Number Frigidaire FRS26ZRG I just purchased the relay 5304410951 and need to know how all these parts fit on the compressor. Does the white part go on first to one of the pins and then the brown one goes on the other two pins on the compressor. Do you have pic to send of installation?
1 Answer Hello Gary. Yes, the white overload goes on first to the single pin on the compressor. Then the relay goes onto the pins side by side and then attach the wires accordingly. Read More...
Rick February 25, 2014 for Model Number frs26zrgw7 The relay kit ap2585033. I know the hot {red} goes on the white piece. The black piece has 3 terminals there is only a blue{neutral}. Does it make any difference what post it goes on? Is there another part I dont have? The old one was a after market that had 3 wires and the 2 to wire to power.
1 Answer Hello Rick. Yes, it does matter. You need to use the compressor wiring diagram on the back of the unit to wire it properly. Read More...
Pete August 02, 2013 for Model Number frs26zthb1 The over load relay went out on the compressor. I picked up the replacement (part#5304410951) that is totally different looking and has no instructions. So how do I install it or find out how to do it? Thanks for your time.
1 Answer Hello Pete, The hot wire will attach to the overload, (small white part with one terminal), and the neutral will hook to the side of the relay, (brown component that goes to the compressor after the overload goes on), to terminal 2. The capacitor will have one wire go to one side of the relay (terminal 1) and the other wire to the opposite side of the relay(terminal 3). Read More...
Litle Eddie July 18, 2013 I have a Frigidaire side by side. Sometimes smoke comes from the freezer. I unplug it for 5min and plug it back and it works fine for a day or so. Coulde it be overlad relay kit.
1 Answer Little Eddie, The overload relay kit would not produce a smoke type vapor to come out of the freezer compartment. It may be that when you open the unit it was in a defrost cycle and you are seeing condensation. The other components that could potentially cause the issue would be a defrost heater or the motor. Normally these parts will not smoke but the heater could produce the water vapors or condensation. Read More...
Gayla June 26, 2013 for Model Number ktrc22ekbl00 I'm installing a new starter relay. The revised relay has 4 terminals and I only need two. The old one is so fried I dont see a number or letters. My wires are red for overload and white and blue for starter. The new relay has one smaller terminal 3 normal. The white wire connecter on my refrigerator is smaller than red and blue.
1 Answer Hello Gayla, The hot wire is the one that was connected to the overload and it will connect to the new overload. The other wire is the neutral and it will connect to the terminal labeled 2 on the new start relay. If the terminal is the wrong size, you will have to change the spade connector. You can easily strip the wire about 1/4 inch and crimp on a new 1/4 inch female spade connector (AP5641949). Read More...
