Joe January 11, 2020 for Model Number MSF25C2EXM00 My fridge is not working. I hear a click then 10 seconds later click again. after 2 1/2 minutes the cycle starts again like the relay/capacitor are trying to start the compressor. I've replaced both the relay and capacitor and still have the same trouble. do you think it's the compressor? If so, can you tell me how to test the compressor? Do you suggest replacing it? Also, can you think of anything else it could be? Thank you in advance, Joe
1 Answer Joe, Since you have replaced the start device and still hear the overload clicking then the compressor has most likely failed. You can do a resistance test on the three compressor terminals. They will be in a pyramid form and the two that are side by side are your start and run pins and the one by itself is your common pin. So testing resistance between start and common and then run and common should equal the same resistance if you test between start and run. So if start and common have 6 ohms of resistance and run and common have 4 then start and run should read 10 ohms. If you decide to repair you would need a sealed system technician and is a expensive repair. Read More...
Steve November 27, 2018 for Model Number ed5lvaxws03 my fridge and freezer are not cooling ,but everything else works and the compressor doesn't seem to be running ,but stays hot why is this...
1 Answer Steve, The compressor is probably hot from trying to start. You can probably hear the relay clicking every couple of minutes if you listen. If your getting 120 vac to the compressor and it won't start then the relay would need to be replaced WPW10189190 Read More...
Jamie November 01, 2018 for Model Number Maytag Refrigerator M9RXDGFYM10 Both fridge and freezer are warm (aprox 50 Deg f). I can hear and feel the fan working. Is the common failed part the capacitor or starter relay or both. Can you provide the correct part numbers for your suggestion. Thanks
1 Answer Jamie, If you have a 120 vac supply at the compressor then most likely the relay will need to be replaced. Part # is WPW10194431 Read More...
Bryan October 29, 2018 for Model Number ed2khaxvs03 freezer and fridge cold and running - seem to be running near constant - every few finutes hear a realy click and sounds like something loads & draws power - lights on same circuit dim with cooling circuit continuing to run and blow cold air. possible part to replace?
1 Answer Bryan, it sounds like you need to replace the start device on your compressor. part number is WPW10189190 Read More...
Rodney October 14, 2017 for Model Number ED5LTAXVL01 I get a click every once in a while from my fridge. I replaced the relay but it still clicks a couple of times a day. Is it suppose to click or just run quietly. Thanks
1 Answer Rodney, If the unit is running properly and cooling properly then this would be normal but I would suggest to check to make sure that the condenser fan is running. Read More...
Bob Threm April 30, 2017 for Model Number Whirlpool ED5LVAXVB00 The fridge and freezer sides started warming up. Inspection showed the compressor was not running, very hot to the touch. Unplug it for 30 min and plugged it back in. Compressor makes sound for about 10-15 sec then CLICK, nothing. Does this every 3 min or so. I pulled the start relay combo and shook it, nothing rattling. I checked the resistance across the compressor taps and they're 10 ohms or less. I've confirmed there's 120 VAC on the power line to the start relay / compressor. All signs point to the start relay combo, but I'm concerned since it's rattling it's not the problem. Thoughts?
1 Answer Bob, A start relay that is not ratting does not mean that it is not bad. The start device would be the most likely cause for this issue. Read More...
Laly May 29, 2016 for Model Number whirlpool ED5GVFXVDO7 My refrigerator is 4 years old now. The freezer and refrigerator are not getting cold. I've checked and found that the compressor is not kicking on.
1 Answer Hello Laly, If the model number is actually ED5GVEXVD07, you should remove the compressor start device WPW10189190 from the side of the compressor and shake it. If it rattles, replace it. If not, there is a good chance the thermostat WP2198202 has failed. Read More...
