Loopherd September 09, 2015 for Model Number Amana 36538 side by side REFRIG Amana 36538 side by side doesn't cool at all. When plugged in, light works, some motor sound comes on but no cool air. Also faint clicking sound or sound like something is maybe trying to start. What parts to try first? Thanks
1 Answer Hello Loopherd, You will need to look at the compressor on this unit to determine which part you will require. If the compressor says Panasonic on it, you will need to order part number 61003103. If it says TEC, you will need WP10097202. If replacing the start relay does not correct the issue, the compressor will be at fault. Read More...
Cortney August 20, 2015 for Model Number whirlpool ed5pvexws13 Got the fridge about 3 years ago and it no longer works. Bought a relay/ starter and nothing. If I need the compressor can you do it yourself or do you have to have somebody come out and do it?

Nancy July 14, 2015 Our Whirlpool refrigerator went under water when our basement flooded with 2ft. of water. It wont run, any advice ?
1 Answer Nancy, you forgot to include a model number, so we can't be sure what parts you may or may not need. If you haven't yet try this first set the refrigerator out in a cool dry area, remove the rear compressor compartment cover and the front kickplate grille. Let the refrigerator set for a week to 10 days, then try it again. You will most likely need a start device and capacitor as well as a condenser fan motor, at the least. Read More...
Cornelius J. July 05, 2015 for Model Number ED22MMXRWR0 My refrigerator whet out and came back on and when out again but started with a clicking sound. It finally when out totally. Now it blows warm air.
1 Answer Hello Cornelius, This sounds like the relay 819098 has failed. I'm sorry but this part has been discontinued by the manufacturer and no satisfactory substitutions have been provided. Read More...

1 Answer Hello Don. No, if the start relay did not get the compressor going, then it sounds like the compressor is bad and will need to be replaced on the unit. Read More...
Cory Q May 19, 2015 for Model Number ED5KVEXVQ00 I recently replaced the temp control switch on my fridge for a cooling issue it was working but wasn't cooling. Now it cools but it cycles every 3 min. 3 min on 3 min off, im worried it will burn up the compressor. Could the start device be bad too?
1 Answer Cory, With the unit cycling every 3 minutes, it does sound like the start relay may have failed. You would want to replace the relay and if this does not correct it then the compressor would be the issue. Read More...
Duane January 01, 2015 for Model Number ED5HVAXVL02 The compressor on my fridge keeps cycling, it runs for 10 seconds then shuts off for 1 min, the compressor feels hot, i tried unplugging from outlet to cool down and pulled out from wall to place a fan to blow on the compressor still same prob. Thinking about getting a new whirlpool refrigerator relay and overload kit w10189190
1 Answer Duane, The first thing that you would want to try is a new relay as these are the most likely cause for the compressor to not come on. If the relay does not work then the compressor would have failed and need replaced. Read More...
Kamo December 05, 2014 for Model Number 10658703802 My freezer is frozen inside. I changed the compressor relay and it worked for about a week. Then the relay stopped working. Can you help me?
1 Answer Hello Kamo, This is most likely the electronic defrost control WPW10209636. This is more likely the defrost since the freezer is freezing up. If the compressor relay were not working, there would be no ice in the freezer. Read More...

Frankfrye August 12, 2014 for Model Number lfuh17f2nwo I have a 2 year old frigidaire upright freezer....when i turn it on i can hear it wanting to start running, but it wont kick on...it just makes a humming noise, like it is trying to start and then stops.
1 Answer Frankfrye, You will want to pull the start relay off your unit and give it a shake, if the relay rattles then the start relay is faulty and would need to be replaced. If the relay is replaced but still the compressor does not fire then the compressor is locked up and would need to be replaced. Read More...
