Armando C June 13, 2015 for Model Number FS26LH5DQ5 My compressor work for 5 seconds and stop you think my capacitor is bad or the compressor is no good.
1 Answer Armando, The most likely cause for the compressor to come on for 5 seconds and then click off would be that the start relay on the unit has failed. The part number for the start relay is 297237702. Read More...

Ruben April 12, 2015 for Model Number FRS6HR4HW6 There is water under this unit. All of the fans and lights are working. I unplugged unit to see if the compressor would come on, but I didn't even here a click or anything. My guess is the defrost control.

Donald February 09, 2015 for Model Number FCM155ABWH Freezer seems to run ok but will not freeze. Water gets to about 45%. Could this be run capacitor #on item is 216236200?
1 Answer Hello Donald. No, it does not sound like the capacitor. If the compressor is running, and it is cooling, but not freezing, you have a sealed system failure and will need to have an certified HVAC tech to come out and service the unit. Read More...
Richard January 11, 2015 for Model Number FRT21TNCW6 Our 16+yr refrigerator/freezer stopped cooling both the fans are working and the light comes on. I believe that the compressor comes on for about 5 seconds then stops then it would be several minutes before it happens again. I am thinking that it is the run capacitor or relay Any suggestions and help would be greatly appreciated I have posted to the forum but I have no response
1 Answer Richard, The relay would be the most likely cause for the compressor not to run. the part number for the relay is 218721101. Read More...

Joe November 11, 2014 for Model Number LFHT1713LWZ I have a frigidaire, and have been having problems with the freezer not freezing food, I have done some troubleshooting on the following items, temperature control, defrost thermostat and control, cleaned the debris from the condenser coils, and checked the winding on the compressor, I was wondering if the run start capacitor could be faulty and if so what signs would I be looking for. I'm Going to troubleshoot it, just was wondering if this could be the problem because on the frigidaire website it states that this is one of the issues with the freezer not getting cold, that could occur from a bad capacitor. Thank you.
1 Answer Hello Joe. If the compressor is not running and there is no cooling going on, then yes, it could be the relay overload. However, if it is cooling some, then you most likely have a sealed system issue and will need an HVAC tech since all other parts were checked to be good. Read More...
Wayne October 29, 2014 for Model Number FH08M5DXFC hello, small Gibson chest freezer. Quit cooling. Relay on compressor clicks on about every 30 seconds or so and can hear something (compressor?) trying to run or start for a few seconds then relay clicks off again. Pulled connectors off capacitor and plugged them back in. Compressor ran for part of a day then quit again. Do you think I need the capacitor or the relay or both? Thanks for any help.
1 Answer Wayne, It would be more likely that you would need a new start relay but would not hurt to put a capacitor on as well. Read More...
