1 Answer Hello Brad. You will need to order 6871JB1423N for the main control board needed for the unit. Read More...
Frank February 27, 2015 for Model Number GBSC0HBXARBB Refrigerator is freezing food when it is turned all the way down. The freezer is fine.
1 Answer Frank, you'll need to check the WR17X12592 damper and duct assembly, it's probably stuck open or the door has dislodged and too much cold air is being allowed to enter the refrigerator, and causing the food to freeze. Read More...
Joe L. November 08, 2014 for Model Number GE TFX24R Compressor keeps running when turning dial to "off", freezer side does not go below minus 10 dgrs. celsius
1 Answer Joe, First thing to check or replace is the cold control WR9X442. When the control is turned to the "OFF" position, It should eliminate the power to the timer and compressor and the compressor should stop running. The warmer than average freezer temp. (24 dgrs.F) could be due to an air flow issue, or a leak at the refrigerator and/or freezer door. Check to make sure the damper and air flow controls are set properly, and that there are no articles hanging over the sides or ends of the shelves, or against the walls. Read More...
Jeff T September 15, 2014 for Model Number GTH22SHSARSS My fridge and freezer is warm no matter what setting its on. I cleaned the condenser coil. Plug in the wall outlet. I didn't hear the click sound from the compressor, the fan is running. After a while, the compressor is getting very warm but not hot to touch. I can feel the vibration on the compressor but cant tell if its from the fan or on its own. After few hour run, its seem cooling ok. What worry me is when I check the relay current draw they are .84 and .69 amp ALL the time until fan stop. The resistance of the Three pins are 5. something, 7. something and 7. something. I did this serval times. It is the same results. The longest time I have the box plug in is 14 hrs. seem it is working. Is the RELAY need to replace ?
1 Answer Jeff, The most likely issue with the units compressor not running would be an issue with the start relay not engaging the compressor. Read More...
Allan August 14, 2014 for Model Number Edgestart BWC90ss Is this a replacement for the QP2 4.7? I do not see an Ohm reference and don't want to order the wrong part. Mine has one tab.
1 Answer Hello Allan! No, the relay listed as part number WR07X26748 is not the correct replacement. For relay QP2 4.7 you'll need part number 1.03.01.01.118PTC. Thanks! Read More...
Julie A July 27, 2014 for Model Number pts22lcsarww My GE refrigerator/ freezer temperatures keep going up and then back down. We unplugged the fridge, cleaned the coils and plugged in 24 hours later and now the compressor is not kicking on at all or cooling now. The lights are on but the panel displaying the temps of both the freezer and refridge are blank. Do you think we need to replace the mother board? Is there a reset button anywhere on the refridgerator? Thank you
1 Answer Julie, Unfortunately there is not a reset for the main control board and based on the issue it does sound like the main control board would be the issue with the unit. The part number for the control board is WR55X10942C. Read More...
Jb May 12, 2014 for Model Number 363.9711781 Kenmore 363.9711781 condenser fan only runs when I unplug, then replug. Runs for about 7 seconds, compressor starts, then both condenser fan and compressor shut off and do not restart again. Both freezer and refrigerator not cool/cold, even though evaporator fan still runs and pushes are through. Figure problem with a relay or overload, but need advice to pinpoint and see if problem worth fixing. Can you help?

Kogi January 11, 2014 for Model Number US PAT 4241370 My compressor relay starts to smoke and melt when I plug the freezer to an outlet. What is causing this and will simply replacing the relay fix the problem? What would be the comparable replacement for the relay with US PAT 4241370?
1 Answer Hello Kogi, Changing the relay will most likely not help matters in this instances since it sounds like you have a shorted winding in the compressor. Read More...
Rich September 06, 2013 Ge GTS22WC Compressor does not start. When I turn the unit on and off with the dial up in the unit there is a click noise around the compressor area. Would this be the run capacitor and or the relay. I believe these are at the wire ends where they plug into the compressor.
1 Answer Hello Rich, This does sound like possibly a bad start relay WR07X10055. If replacing the start relay doesn't correct the issue, the compressor has most likely locked and will require replacement by a technician authorized to handle Freon. Read More...
Buzz August 06, 2013 for Model Number GXCF05D I have a GE water cooler. The Model number I provided is similar but may not be exact. This water cooler has a heat and cool option for the water. The cooling option has stopped working. I took apart unit and saw that the compressor wasn't starting. It was trying to but the overload kept shutting it off. I thought it might be the motor starter relay 8EA403. I bugged out the starter relay and it was about 5 ohms between contacts. Took cover off and the PTC pill seems intact. I had a new overload part so tried it and it did same thing. I'm guessing the starter relay is bad but given the PTC pill and contacts seem ok I'm only guessing. Windings on compressor seem fine and no shorts to GND. Can you tell me if you have a compatible starter relay that would work in place of 8EA403?
