- Note wire positions and terminal markings; transfer leads one at a time to the matching terminals
- Secure the capacitor in its mounting/bracket to prevent vibration damage

Three year old Frigidaire upright freezer quit running. Kenneth B. • Crossville , TN • April 03, 2021
My barely three year old Frigidaire upright freezer quit running and we discovered it when most of the contents were just starting to thaw. Luckily we have nearby neighbors that my wife walks with most days and two or three of them came to our rescue with available freezer space to save the more valuable things like meat and seafood. The compressor would not come on, no fan, no noises of any kind but the light came on when the door was opened so obviously it had power. I unplugged it for a...

If your large burner won't heat or stay at the right temperature, the element switch likely needs replacement. Simple 10-15 minute repair with a screwdriver.
Do-It-Yourself Stories from Customers like You
The jennaire stove has a switch with a very poorly designed knob it catches on people's clothes and breaks off Bernard N. • West Linn , OR • December 06, 2016
You have to take the knob off the broken part, then buy the new switch element and fix it. To do this you turn the power off, take out 6 fasteners to release the front panel of the stove and replace the switch element. Then put it all back together. Very simple. But if the knob was designed better it would not have broken in the first place. It looks nice, but this is the third time I have had to fix one.

Genuine Frigidaire part
By: Frigidaire
Part Number: 134399700
The Start Switch is an OEM replacement part for Frigidaire dryers. This part initiates the dryer's cycle once the user selects the desired settings. By pressing the start switch, the motor activates, and the drying process begins, ensuring clothes are dried according to the selected specifications.
Symptoms of a bad Start Switch include:
- The dryer not starting when the switch is pressed
- Intermittent starting issues, where the dryer sometimes starts and sometimes doesn’t
- The need to hold the switch in place to keep the dryer running
- Unusual noises when the switch is pressed
Causes for a malfunctioning Start Switch can include electrical issues, such as faulty wiring or connections, wear and tear from frequent use, or internal failures within the switch mechanism that prevent it from signaling the motor to start.
This OEM replacement is also compatible with Electrolux, Gibson, Kelvinator, and Kenmore dryers.

1 no heat on high or low settings and sometimes on medium heat setting 2 no auto cool down Robert H. • Renton , WA • March 11, 2015
I replaced the cycle switch, fixing the lack of heat. The timer switch replacement fixed the auto cool down. I watched a cycle switch replacement on Youtube, demonstrating removal of the top console, which answered the only question I had about the repair. The timer switch was a hundred bucks. The only thing to be said about that is that it was a lot cheaper than a repairman or replacing the dryer.

No spark or red led gas cooktop working with a lighter. Devang R. • San Ramon , CA • June 23, 2022
The ordeal began after wiping around burner knobs with a moist paper towel with cleaner and wrapping the towel around the burner knob shaft to clean around it. The cooktop stopped sparking on all the 5 burners and no red LED light. There was gas flow and I could light the burner using a lighter. I looked up and found a couple of good youtube videos on troubleshooting and also came upon the AppliancePartsPros.com site. I opened the cooktop (youtube video helped) after turning off the gas supply...
