This compressor overload is the thermal protector for your refrigerator's compressor. It opens the circuit when the motor overheats or draws excessive current, helping prevent damage and restoring reliable starts when the original protector fails.

• Interrupts power to protect the compressor during overheat or overcurrent conditions
• If failed, symptoms include: compressor won't start, repeated clicking or brief hum then stop, warm refrigerator/freezer, and an unusually hot compressor shell
• A weak protector may trip repeatedly and reset after cooling, causing intermittent cooling
• Works in tandem with the start relay/device to manage compressor startup current

• Disconnect power before servicing and pull the unit forward for rear access
• Remove the rear cover; note wire positions and take a photo for reference
• Pull the old overload straight off the compressor terminal; transfer leads and firmly seat the new overload in the same orientation
• Capacitors can retain a charge—handle with care; reinstall cover and restore power to test

Due to manufacturer changes, if D shaft hinge pin is needed use part number WP2325483.

This PTC start relay mounts on the compressor and briefly powers its start winding to get it running, then drops out. Replacing a weak relay can restore reliable starts and resolve clicking/humming with no cooling.

• Provides the initial boost to the compressor via a positive temperature coefficient (PTC) element, then opens as it heats
• Takes the start winding out of the circuit once the compressor is running
• Typical failure symptoms: compressor won't start, repeated clicking/humming, no cooling, visible heat damage at the relay or connector
• Direct replacement for the original PTC start device used on applicable models

• Disconnect power before servicing; allow hot components to cool
• Access the compressor compartment, remove the cover, and note the relay's orientation; pull the old relay straight off the compressor pins
• Inspect wiring terminals for heat damage; do not reuse burnt connectors
• Firmly seat the new relay on the compressor terminals, reinstall the cover, restore power, and verify compressor start
