Justin June 11, 2023 for Model Number MFU14M2GW1 I purchased a replacement Run Start Capacitor with part number shown on website as 5304464438 / AP4315853. My old part was Shizuki 218909901. After looking closely at the photo for the new part it displayed the same brand and number as my original capacitor but instead i received one NGM 297286803. The part sent was tried but did not resolve the problem of the upright Frigidaire freezer not starting. I tries for a couple of second then stops and will not come on. Is the part sent different thanthe Shizuki 218909901?
1 Answer Justin, The issues you have described would be a start device (relay/overload) and not the capacitor, or a compressor issue. Read More...
Justin June 11, 2023 for Model Number MFU14M2GW1 Recently Frigidaire model no MFU14M2GW1 stopped running. The contents were partially defrosted. It sounded like it was trying to start up but after a couple of seconds it would quit. If I unplugged it and plugged it back in it would go through the same cycle. I purchased a new run start capacitor model no. 297286803 from AppliancePartsPros.com to replace the old one with no. 218909901. After watching the video I swapped the run start capacitor. Plugged in the freezer, turn it from "Off" to "5". It tried to start but after a couple of seconds it stopped again, same symptoms as before when the original run start capacitor was still installed. Any suggestions on another faulty part. Can I return this Run Start Capacitor as it wasn't used and didn't resolve the problem? Thanks
1 Answer Justin, Based on the model and the information provided the issue is either the start device (relay/overload) or the compressor. Read More...
Lar July 25, 2022 I have an older model Frigidaire upright freezer - picked it up from friend who is moving- Freezer has not been in use for several years. When plugged in - would not run. Capacitor 216236200 and relay switch 216008900. Motor - Embrace EM160HSC 115 VAC 60 Hz When I look on line - unable to find combo parts and I do not understand how my capacitor shows 180 VAC and most new ones show 140 VAC - Not certain what this all means Can I buy both the capacitor and start stop replay switch Thank you for your assistance.

Jeff August 19, 2021 for Model Number 253.56422406 My refrigerator is warm and freezer is icing up. I replaced the evaporator fan motor because it turns on and off consistently. I also replaced the defrost thermostat. Once I plugged in the fridge the evaporator fan is still doing the same thing turning on and off over and over again once the freezer gets cold. Is there a different part I need to replace?
1 Answer Jeff, unfortunately, the model number provided is not showing within our available database. If the model could be verified and provided in a new question, this may allow for more accurate information to be presented. As the fan motor is still fluctuating on and off, the control source would need to be tested for proper operation. If it is sending pulsing voltage to the fan, the control source has failed.

1 Answer Sarah, The most likely cause for this issue is that when the unit goes into a defrost cycle, it is not coming out properly and causing things to warm up. The defrost timer will be the most likely cause for this and will be part number 241705102. Read More...

Mat June 06, 2020 My upright freezer is about 5 years old. It simply stopped working. The lights still function properly, but the compressor will not turn on at all. It was running and freezing fine, no noises, etc. I've tried unplugging it, turning the thermostat to off for a time and turning it back on, etc. The thermostat will not make the typical click sound when I rotate the dial and the compressor will not turn on at all. Thoughts?
1 Answer Mat, Based on the information provided the thermostat would need to be tested for continuity, and if it has no continuity it would need to be replaced. I am sorry but we would need the model and the serial number of your machine to do further research. Read More...
