- Installed as the electrical component used only on compatible compressor assemblies.

Lg refrigerator wound not start Steve S. • Peoria , AZ • May 28, 2016
For an emergency fix I installed a 3 in1 kit disabling the original start cap and wiring in the original run cap to the run winding.
Ordered the proper PTC and overload from Appliance Parts Pros and installed them 2 weeks later.
The original start and run capacitor were good, rewired back to design specs.
The original PTC had pins 1,2 and 3, the replacement had 2,3 and 4.
Only wiring change was to install the red wire from pin 1 on the original PTC to pin 4 on the new PTC.

Whirlpool refrigerator was not cooling and was making clicking noise William K. • Silver Spring , MD • November 04, 2014
Looked on the web, where many sites indicated it was probably the starter relay. The hardest part was taking off the plastic cover so I could get to the relay! Once the cover was off, the relay was easy to take off. I shook and it made a noise -- another indication, according to the web, that the relay was bad. I looked up the part, found it online, and was happy when its pictures matched the starter relay I had. Ordered the part. When it arrived, it only took a few minutes to install it...
