No cooling and no hum from compressor when plugged in Collin H. • Quincy , WA • October 23, 2014
I suspected the start-relay and tested it due to the lint plugged condenser coils. The start-relay rattled when shook, a telling sign it is no good due to over heating. I tested the compressor terminals and compared them the results with the Tech Data Sheet found with the unit, to find my compressor was still good. I checked the start capacitor with a capacitor tester, comparing the results with the rating printed on the side of the capacitor and found it to be good. I cleaned the condenser...

Would not run led dimmed condenser fan would not run Pete M. • Santa Fe , NM • May 16, 2015
We replaced the main circuit board and the LED started to work and the condenser fan worked, but all we had were relay clicking sounds, but no cooling. The compressor had become so hot trying to work when the main circuit board was amiss, that it had popped the over temperature sensor on its side. As some one point out, if you remove the PTC+OLP assembly with the capacitor on it, and shake it, you will hear a rattle inside---and that is bad. We ordered a second round of parts from...

Genuine Lg part
By: Lg
Part Number: 0CZZJB2014G
This capacitor stores and releases electrical energy to support the appliance's circuit during startup and operation. Replacing a weakened capacitor can restore reliable performance and reduce humming, hard starting, or stalling in the affected component.
- Provides a power boost at startup and helps stabilize voltage during operation
- Helps the connected component start promptly and operate smoothly under load
- Common failure signs include humming, slow or no start, or intermittent operation
- Contribute to overheating or a tripped breaker/fuse when the component tries to start
What's included: One capacitor. Install notes:
- Disconnect power at the breaker or unplug the appliance. Before handling, safely discharge the old capacitor using a proper resistor-rated tool.
- Photograph or note wire positions; move each lead to the same-labeled terminal on the new capacitor and ensure snug connections.
- Mount the capacitor securely in its bracket; keep terminals covered and clear of metal surfaces.

Loud clicking from the back of my refrigerator Randy W. • Granbury , TX • March 04, 2015
Research question lead to others that had the same issue. Consensus lead to a common repair. Compressor overload switch going bad. After ordering the correct parts, I changed out both the switch and the motor start capacitor just in case. After cleaning the equipment, I then put everything back together. Results were, clicking gone, seems to be quieter operation because of cleaning, more efficient cooling and nerves calmed.

Freezer was shuuting down or not coming back on after defrost cycle Kent S. • Springfield , OH • October 24, 2020
I replaced defrost timer (which I am glad I did because of wear on the points) but that did not cure the problem. So after checking other components, I found that the temperature control was the culprit. No problem, I will simply order part # 2162521100. Well Frigidaire decided to obsolete that part and "Has not provided an approved substitute". So, I have to scrap this freezer and pay $800 to $900 for a new one? Not! So I kept looking at subsequent freezer temperature controls and found part #...
