Machine Ptc Parts

This start relay controls power to the compressor's start winding so the refrigerator can start and run. Replacing a weak or burned relay restores dependable compressor start-up and can stop repeated clicking with warming temperatures.

• Energizes the compressor's start winding to provide initial torque, then disengages from the circuit
• Common failure symptoms: refrigerator not cooling or intermittently warm; compressor hums/clicks and won't start; relay rattles, smells burnt, or shows heat damage; overload trips
• Helps prevent hard-start conditions that stress the compressor
• The relay contacts are open/shorted, the compressor may fail to start and cycle off on overload

• Disconnect power before servicing; wear appropriate PPE
• Access the rear machine compartment; remove the relay cover on the compressor. Note wire positions, pull the old relay straight off the compressor pins, transfer wires, and fully seat the new relay in the same orientation
• If equipped, safely discharge the run capacitor; inspect the overload, wiring, and terminals for heat damage and address as needed
• Reinstall the cover. If the compressor still won't start, further diagnosis of the start device, capacitor, or compressor is required

This overload relay protects and helps start the refrigerator/freezer compressor by cutting power if the motor overheats or draws excessive current. Replaces a failed relay to restore normal compressor start and protect the compressor from damage. What it does:

• Senses excessive compressor current or heat and interrupts power to prevent motor damage
• Works with the compressor start device to help the compressor start reliably
• Commonly replaces a failed relay when the compressor hums but won't start or the refrigerator is not cooling
• Helps prevent repeated compressor attempts that can trip breakers or overheat wiring

• Disconnect power to the appliance before accessing electrical components
• Handle terminals carefully; ensure correct seating on the compressor motor pins
• Only install parts that match the appliance's service literature and wiring configuration

Start relay for refrigerator compressors that helps the compressor begin running at power-up. Replacing a failed relay can restore normal starting behavior and resolve common startup symptoms. What it does

• Provides the initial start current path to the compressor during startup.
• Allows the compressor to reach running speed, then drops out once the motor is running.
• Common symptoms a bad relay may cause: compressor clicking, humming without starting, intermittent cooling or frequent cycling.
• Installed as the electrical component used only on compatible compressor assemblies.

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing to avoid electrical shock.
• Access the relay at the compressor; remove and replace the relay only after confirming diagnostics.
• Dispose of the old electrical part per local regulations.
