This PTC compressor start relay briefly powers the compressor's start winding to get the motor turning, then drops out as it warms. Replacing a weak relay can restore consistent compressor starts and stabilize refrigerator and freezer temperatures.

• Momentarily energizes the compressor's start winding; disengages automatically as the PTC element heats
• Helps protect the compressor by removing the start winding after startup
• Symptoms of failure can include compressor clicking but not running
• Intermittent cooling or warming temperatures between cycles
• Heat discoloration or a burnt odor around the start device

• Disconnect power and remove the rear lower access panel
• Note wire locations; remove the start device cover/retainer and pull the old relay straight off the compressor pins
• Inspect compressor pins; firmly seat the new relay and reconnect wiring
• Reinstall covers/panels, restore power, and verify normal compressor start

This temperature control thermostat regulates the cabinet temperature by cycling the cooling system on and off as needed. Replacing a faulty control restores consistent cooling performance and makes the setting dial respond correctly.

• Senses cabinet temperature via the capillary bulb and opens/closes contacts to start or stop the compressor
• Corrects issues such as no cooling/won't run (open control) or running constantly/won't shut off (stuck closed)
• Addresses erratic temperatures or a dial that has little or no effect on temperature
• Helps maintain stable, food-safe temperatures once adjusted

• Unplug the appliance before servicing; do not work on live circuits
• Remove the control housing/escutcheon, pull off the knob, note wire positions, and transfer any brackets as needed
• Route the new capillary in the original path; avoid kinks/sharp bends and secure the sensing bulb in the original clips
• Reassemble, restore power, and allow up to 24 hours for temperatures to stabilize; adjust the setting as needed

This light socket securely holds the appliance bulb and provides the electrical connection to illuminate the compartment when the door is opened. Replacing a faulty socket restores interior lighting so you can easily see contents.

• Provides the electrical connection and physical mounting for the light bulb
• Common failure symptoms: light won't turn on, flickers, or only works when the bulb is jiggled
• Show signs of heat discoloration, loose terminals, or intermittent contact

• Unplug the appliance before service; power is off
• Allow the bulb and surrounding area to cool before handling
• Handle wiring carefully; transfer conductors to the new socket one at a time to maintain correct connections
