The Compressor Start Relay is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators. This part provides the necessary power boost to start the compressor.
Causes of a bad start relay can include electrical issues, wear and tear from regular use, or damage from power surges or overheating.
Symptoms of a bad compressor start relay include:
This OEM Whirlpool part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper and some Kenmore models.
Googled the symptoms and realized it was probably the Start Relay. To check, I unplugged the refrigerator, took off the back panel, and pulled the old start relay off. I shook it and it rattled, like something was broken inside. That was the sign that it did indeed need to be replaced. Looked up the part on www.appliancepartpros.com and found it. Ordered it and it was here two days later. Replaced the old one and the refrigerator started cooling again. Very easy fix that saved me calling a... Read more

Ice dispenser not working or making noise? This motor powers the auger that delivers ice. Moderate DIY repair with video guide. Fits many models.
The auger would not turn the dispenser because the screw threads were stripped. I could not re-thread it so I had to replace the entire motor assembly. The video your company provided was extremely helpful not only for fixing the problem but to give me the confidence to do it myself. It was a very detailed video that included all the safety instructions. Read more

Ice not dispensing or only partially crushing? The ice dispenser auger moves ice from bin to chute. DIY-friendly repair, typically 30 minutes.
Had to replace the auger. The auger on my ice maker was made of plastic and had broken pieces off it. The new one is made of metal and seems to work much better. Was a fairly simple repair. However pay close attention when disassembling, I recommend using your cell phone and snap a pic of the different stages as I became a little confused when putting it back together. Ordered the part and it was here the next day. I'm very happy to have my ice coming down the chute again. By the way, I'm a 70... Read more
Ice dispenser won't close or dispenses continuously? This dispenser door pin kit restores proper flapper operation. Easy DIY repair with video guide.
It was not looking good. I could not order the part I needed as it was part of the door - eve though it had screws att Hong it to the freezer door. At one web site it was a replacement of the whole freezer door!/? Luckily I ventured further and found this repair kit and video instructions. My order arrived in 3 days, and the install (thanks to the video) was easy. A whole lot better than buying a new freezer door - not! BTW - Whitlpool should not have made the tabs out of plastic, the metal... Read more

Even though the refrigerator is 13 years old, I was able to find replacement parts on your site. The DIY video provided on-line for each of the four parts ordered was very helpful ; even though my refrigerator wasn't exactly like the one in the video, it was still helpful. I'm not usually the DIY type- but with your help the repair was very successful! Thank you ! Read more

For the complete ice door kit order W10823377.
The ice dispenser chute door had not been sealing for years. The ice cubes on the lower portion of the ice bin would melt enough eventually to then freeze up into a big, amalgamated blob of ice due to ambient air coming up the chute. This melt-then-freeze would happen, to the extent the chute froze to its own closure. Despite service technician visits over a period of six years nothing they did resolved the issue. I opened the freezer door to reach into the bin from the top to extract usable... Read more
This electrical kit includes the relay and overload protector that help start your refrigerator compressor safely. The relay provides the initial electrical boost while the overload protector prevents damage from electrical surges. Replace this kit if your refrigerator won't cool, compressor won't start, makes clicking sounds but doesn't run, or trips electrical breakers.
Took the screws off the back plate at the bottom and watched the YouTube video on how to remove the cover plate for the starter and overload on the back of the compressor. Ended up snapping the old cover plate (brittle plastic) so I was glad the "kit" came with a new one. I used a small flat-head screwdriver and carefully pried off the starter and overload, then, with the new ones in hand, took the wires off the old ones and immediately put them on the new ones so I didn't lose track (there is...
