Symptoms of a bad fridge main control board include:

• The refrigerator not cooling properly
• The compressor or fans not running
• Display errors or malfunctioning indicator lights
• The refrigerator running continuously or not cycling on and off as needed

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

The Center Door Hinge is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool refrigerators. As one of several hinges supporting each refrigerator door panel, it works to guide opening and closing movements.

Causes of a faulty center hinge tend to be wear from years of continuous operation with near-daily door cycles. Complete failure could also occur in the event of physical damage sustained during a repair or installation issue.

Symptoms include:

• Looseness, wobbling, or misalignment of the associated door
• Increased effort required to open or close doors
• Potential for doors to fall off alignment, cease opening fully
• Risk of door detachment altogether without hinge support

This PTC start relay plugs onto the compressor to momentarily power the start winding and help the compressor spin up smoothly. Replacing a failed relay can stop repetitive clicking and help restore stable cooling performance. What it does:

• Momentarily energizes the compressor's start winding at startup; the PTC element then increases resistance to take the start winding out of the circuit.
• Helps protect against repeated hard-start attempts that cause clicking and no-cool conditions.
• Common failure signs include repeated clicking, the compressor not starting, warm temperatures, burn marks/melted housing, or a relay that rattles when shaken.
• Mounts directly on the compressor terminals and interfaces with the model-specific overload and cover.

• 1 PTC start relay

• Disconnect power and allow components to cool before servicing.
• Access the compressor compartment; remove any cover/retainer to reach the start device.
• Note wiring and orientation; pull the old relay straight off the compressor pins and push the new relay fully onto the pins. Reconnect wires and reinstall the cover.
• Use only the start device specified for your exact model/compressor. If the old relay shows heat damage, inspect the matching overload and wiring for issues.

The Hinge Pin is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators. This part allows the door to open and close smoothly, providing a durable pivot point for the door's movement.

Over time, hinge pins can wear down or become damaged due to the constant stress of door movement, improper alignment, or accidental force applied to the door.
