Parts for Ge AZ61H09EADW1: 04 - Unit Parts

A rubber compressor cushion that isolates the compressor from the refrigerator chassis to reduce vibration and prevent metal-on-metal contact. Replaces worn or missing cushions to help minimize noise and vibration transfer. What it does:

• Cushions the compressor to dampen vibration and reduce rattling or buzzing noises.
• Keeps the compressor from directly contacting the cabinet, preventing wear and chafing.
• Helps maintain proper compressor positioning and reduces stress on mounting components.
• Common symptom: increased compressor noise or vibration, or visible worn/deteriorated cushion.

• One compressor cushion (rubber mount).

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair.
• Support the compressor or secure the unit when removing/replacing mounts to avoid strain.
• Remove the old cushion and press the new cushion into place; no refrigerant handling required.
• Use basic hand tools and wear gloves.

A compressor protector that helps prevent compressor damage by interrupting power when the motor overheats or draws excessive current. Replaces a failed protector to restore proper compressor protection and help avoid costly compressor replacement. What it does:

• Senses excessive heat or current at the compressor and opens the circuit to stop the compressor from running.
• Helps prevent compressor burnout and wiring damage caused by overheating or locked-rotor conditions.
• Common symptom linkage: refrigerator runs but cooling is poor or compressor will not start and only hums intermittently.
• Works with the compressor start system to improve reliability when the protector is functioning correctly.

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair.
• Mount and connect the protector to the compressor terminals exactly as the original part was installed.
• Handle terminals carefully to avoid bending or damaging compressor leads.
• If the compressor or start components show other signs of failure, inspect the start relay, overload, and wiring; replace any damaged parts.

This thermistor is the refrigerator temperature sensor that helps the control board monitor and regulate cooling. Replacing a faulty sensor restores accurate temperature readings and consistent cooling performance. What it does:

• Measures internal refrigerator/freezer temperature and sends readings to the control board
• Helps the control board adjust compressor and fan operation for stable temperatures
• Can cause incorrect temperature display or uneven cooling when it fails
• Linked to excessive running, frequent defrost cycles, or poor cooling performance

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing to avoid shock or damage
• Handle the sensor and wiring harness carefully; avoid kinking or damaging the lead
• Ensure the connector is fully seated and any mounting clip or bracket is secured
• Some panel removal may be required; follow for access and reassembly
