This starter is a small electrical device that helps the refrigerator or freezer compressor start reliably, restoring proper cooling when the compressor struggles to power up. Replace a failed starter to bring the compressor back to dependable operation. What it does:

• Supplies the initial start current to the compressor so it can spin up and begin the refrigeration cycle.
• Common symptoms of a failing starter: refrigerator or freezer not cooling, compressor hums or vibrates but won't run, repeated clicking noises at the back, or intermittent cooling.
• Works with the appliance's existing compressor wiring and start circuit to restore normal starting performance when compatible.

• Always disconnect power to the appliance before attempting any repair.
• The starter typically mounts on or near the compressor and may require pulling the appliance away from the wall and removing the rear access panel.
• Handle terminals and wiring carefully; match connectors and orientation to the original part.

This start switch completes the dryer's start circuit when you press Start, energizing the motor to begin the cycle. Replacing a worn switch restores consistent, reliable starting when the original becomes intermittent or electrically open. What it does:

• Completes the start circuit to send power to the drive motor when Start is activated
• Common failure symptoms include the dryer not starting or no response when pressing Start
• May cause intermittent starts that require multiple presses or jiggling
• Switch may feel loose or show heat discoloration at the terminals

• Includes 1 start switch

• Disconnect power to the dryer before servicing
• Access the control panel/console to reach the switch
• Label or photograph wire positions; transfer wires one at a time to the new switch
• Secure the switch, reassemble panels, restore power, and test start operation

This push-to-start switch momentarily closes the start circuit to begin a cycle. Replacing a worn switch restores reliable starting when you press the Start button.

• Initiates operation by closing the start circuit when pressed
• Works with the door switch and timer/control to begin a cycle
• Common symptoms: won't start when Start is pressed; runs only while the button is held; intermittent starting; Start button feels loose or sticky
• Also known as an on/off PTS or start button switch

• Disconnect power before servicing
• Access the console/control panel and remove the start knob or button if present
• Move wires to the new switch one at a time to maintain correct terminal positions
• Secure the switch in the panel, reassemble, and test Start function

This is a start switch intended for use with dryers. With time or because of damage caused by accident, the start switch may stop working correctly. If the start switch isn't working, then the dryer will not function properly, and a replacement part should be ordered. If the push to start switch doesn't respond, it could be damaged or broken. Replacing the push to start switch on a dryer is a simple process. Start by unplugging the machine. Remove the back panel and pull out the old push to start button. Put the new button in its place and reattach the rear panel. Wear gloves for protection. Restore power only after the complete reassembly is performed. This push-to-start button is a genuine OEM replacement part. It is sold as an individual unit. The part is sourced from the manufacturer and made of durable materials. The push-to-start button can be installed in various dryer models made by SpeedQueen and Alliance brands.

This capacitor is an electrical replacement part that helps restore reliable motor/compressor start and operation in compatible appliances. Replacing a failed capacitor can stop intermittent operation and reduce abnormal humming or failure-to-start issues. What it does:

• Provides the stored electrical charge needed for motor or compressor start-up and stable operation
• Commonly linked to symptoms like humming, repeated starting/stopping, slow or failed starts, or loss of function
• Stabilizes voltage to reduce stress on motor circuitry and improve run consistency
• Replaces a worn or failed capacitor to restore normal appliance electrical performance

• Disconnect power at the breaker or unplug the appliance before beginning any service
• Capacitors can hold a charge—discharge carefully
• Observe terminal orientation and wire placement; replace with identical specifications

This micro switch is a compact, snap-action electrical switch that sends an on/off signal when a lever, latch, or paddle is moved. Replacing a worn switch restores reliable detection and control response for the affected function.

• Converts mechanical movement into an electrical open/close signal to the control
• Commonly used for lever/paddle actuators, latches, or interlock detection within the appliance
• Safe symptom clues: no response when actuated, intermittent operation, or a function stuck on/off
• Physical clues: weak or absent "click" when pressed, heat discoloration or damage at terminals

• Disconnect power before servicing; if the product is connected to a water line, close the supply valve
• Note wire positions and terminal labels (COM/NO/NC); transfer wires one at a time to matching terminals
• Match the actuator orientation and mounting position to the original for proper operation
• After installation, verify continuity with a multimeter and test function before reassembly

Wrinkle care on and off switch

This rotary, 3-position temperature selector switch lets you choose the cycle's temperature. When it wears out, settings may not respond or temperatures may be wrong. Replacing it restores accurate temperature selection and dependable performance.

• Provides user control of temperature with three selectable positions
• Sends the chosen setting to the appliance's control system to achieve the requested temperature
• Common signs of failure: only one setting works, temperature doesn't match the selection, or the selector is loose/hard to turn
• Visible damage to the switch shaft or terminals

• Disconnect power at the breaker before servicing
• Access the switch from the control panel/console
• Note wire locations and transfer them one-by-one (or take a photo for reference)
• Reinstall the existing knob, aligning the flat on the shaft as removed

This Marquardt ground switch completes the appliance's ground connection so controls and safety systems have a proper reference. Replace a failed ground switch to restore reliable grounding and help eliminate related electrical faults. What it does:

• Provides the ground connection path used by controls and safety circuits.
• Replaced when continuity tests fail or when appliances have intermittent power, control errors, or nuisance breaker trips.
• Restores correct electrical grounding to help reduce fault conditions and erratic control behavior.
• Matches the original switch form and electrical connector layout for a direct replacement.

• Disconnect all power (unplug appliance and/or shut off breaker) before beginning service.
• Photograph or label wiring and connector positions before removal; transfer connectors to the new switch exactly.
• Inspect connectors and wiring for damage; replace any frayed or heat-damaged wiring.

This replacement switch restores reliable on/off control for the matched function in your appliance. A worn or sticking switch can prevent components from powering correctly; replacing it helps bring back consistent, safe operation.

• Opens and closes an electrical circuit to control a specific component
• Actuates via a knob, button, lever, or door/lid mechanism
