I received the parts at 1 PM EST; by 1:48 PM I had the freezer working. Easily saved $250.00. A nice aside was that an Internet competitor was asking $53.00 for the same...

Genuine Lg part
By: Lg
Part Number: 6750C-0004R
The Compressor Overload Protector is an OEM replacement part for LG refrigerators. It plays an important safety role in protecting the compressor from damage due to excessive heat. Located near the compressor unit, the overload protector functions to shut off power to the compressor if temperatures become too high during operation.
Causes can include normal wear over time rendering it less responsive to temperature changes. Mineral or refrigerant deposits may also impede its ability to detect overheating conditions accurately.
Symptoms of a faulty overload protector include:
- Refrigerator fails to properly cool or the compressor does not run
- Circuit board or electrical component failure or burnout
- Lack of cold air production and higher than normal freezer/fridge temperatures
This OEM LG part is also compatible with some Sears/Kenmore models.

Genuine Frigidaire part
By: Frigidaire
Part Number: 216594300
The Starter is an OEM replacement part for Frigidaire refrigerators. This component is crucial for initiating the compressor, which is responsible for cooling the refrigerator. The starter works by providing the necessary electrical power to get the compressor running, ensuring that the refrigerator maintains the correct temperature.
Causes of a bad starter can include electrical malfunctions, wear and tear over time, or damage from power surges. A faulty starter can prevent the compressor from starting, leading to cooling issues.
Symptoms of a bad Starter include:
- The refrigerator not cooling properly
- The compressor not running or frequently cycling on and off
- Unusual clicking or buzzing noises from the compressor area
- The refrigerator being warmer than usual or food spoiling quickly
This OEM replacement is also compatible with Electrolux, Gibson, Kelvinator, and Kenmore models.

Part Number: 216954214
This controller is the refrigerator's electronic brain, managing cooling and defrost operations to keep temperatures stable. Replacing a failed board restores reliable compressor, fan, and defrost control when cooling becomes erratic.
- Regulates compressor and evaporator fan operation to maintain set temperatures
- Manages the defrost cycle to prevent frost/ice buildup on the evaporator
- Coordinates inputs from sensors/switches for consistent, efficient cooling
- Common failure symptoms include poor or intermittent cooling, heavy frost on the back wall/evaporator, constant running or short-cycling, or failure to start
What's included: One electronic control board Installation notes:
- Disconnect power before servicing and use ESD precautions when handling electronics
- Access the control location (typically in the control housing or rear compartment) and photograph wiring for reference
- Transfer connectors one at a time to the new board; ensure all plugs are fully seated and harnesses are routed safely
- Reassemble panels, restore power, and verify normal compressor/fan operation

The run capacitor caught fire. David C. • Hudson , OH • December 22, 2020
After smelling and seeing the smoke I was able to spot the defective parts. Where the run capacitor connects to the control-compressor is where it was burning. So I went to the Appliance Parts Pros website and put in the model number and the diagram of parts come up. I ordered the new parts, the control-compressor, and the run capacitor. Quick shipping. Installed and works ss required.
