Amana Refrigerator BB20V1PS Freezer section too warm

The Run Capacitor is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators. It is responsible for helping the compressor motor start and run efficiently by providing an extra electrical boost. This component ensures that the refrigerator operates smoothly and maintains the correct temperature by stabilizing the compressor's performance.

Causes of a bad run capacitor can include electrical surges, age-related wear, or overheating. When the capacitor fails, the compressor may struggle to start or run continuously, leading to inefficient cooling or a non-functional refrigerator.

Symptoms of a bad run capacitor include:

• The refrigerator not cooling properly
• The compressor not starting or running intermittently
• Unusual clicking noises from the refrigerator

This OEM part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.

The Relay and Overload is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool refrigerators. These electronic components regulate key refrigerator operations and safety measures. The relay controls the start and stop of refrigeration components like the compressor and condenser fan motor.

Symptoms of a bad relay and overload include:

• Refrigerator failing to consistently cool or maintain temperature
• Buzzing or humming noises coming from cooling areas
• Tripped circuit breakers

Causes can include defective relay contacts, a burned-out overload, or worn-out electrical components internal to either part.

This OEM Whirlpool replacement is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, and select Kenmore fridge models as well. 

This thermostat is a temperature safety device that opens the circuit if temperatures climb beyond the safe threshold. Replacing a failed thermostat helps protect the appliance from overheating and restores normal heating performance.

• Monitors internal temperature and cuts power if it overheats
• Helps prevent damage to components from excessive heat
• Common failure signs include no heat, intermittent heat, or the unit shutting off on high heat
• Shows continuity when cool and open when tripped

• Disconnect power before service; verify no voltage is present
• Access location varies by model; note wire positions and transfer one at a time
• Mount firmly against the intended surface for proper sensing
• After replacement, verify airflow/venting and clear lint/debris to avoid repeat trips
