The Run Capacitor is an OEM part for GE refrigerators. It plays a crucial role in the refrigerator's cooling system by providing the necessary start and run voltage to the compressor. Without a properly functioning run capacitor, your refrigerator may struggle to maintain the desired temperature, leading to spoiled food and inefficient energy use.

Causes of a bad run capacitor include electrical surges, wear and tear over time, or overheating due to a malfunctioning refrigerator compressor or poor ventilation.

Symptoms of a bad Run Capacitor include:

• The refrigerator compressor fails to start.
• Unusual humming noises coming from the refrigerator.
• The refrigerator cycles on and off more frequently than normal.
• A noticeable increase in energy consumption as the refrigerator struggles to maintain the proper temperature.

This OEM GE part can also be used on Hotpoint, RCA, and Kenmore/Sears appliances.

This PTC start relay mounts on the refrigerator compressor and briefly energizes the start winding, then automatically opens as it warms. Replacing a weak relay helps restore reliable compressor starts and consistent cooling. What it does:

• Provides momentary power to the compressor's start winding at startup; the PTC element opens as it heats
• Helps ensure smooth compressor starts and reduces repeated start attempts
• Signs of a failed start device can include no cooling because the compressor won't run
• Clicking or buzzing from the compressor area every few minutes
• Compressor starts intermittently or stops shortly after starting

• Includes: 1 PTC start relay

• Disconnect power and pull the refrigerator forward to access the rear service area
• Remove the rear panel to reach the compressor compartment
• Unplug the wire harness and pull the old relay straight off the compressor terminals; note its orientation
• Push the new relay fully onto the compressor prongs, reconnect the harness, reinstall the panel, and restore power

This part has been discontinued by the manufacturer and is no longer available.

The R134 Drier is an OEM part for GE refrigerators. This component plays a critical role in the refrigeration system by removing moisture and contaminants from the refrigerant, ensuring efficient cooling and preventing damage to other parts of the system. It helps maintain the purity and effectiveness of the refrigerant as it cycles through the system.

You should replace the R134 drier if it becomes clogged or damaged. Common causes of a bad drier include wear and tear over time, exposure to moisture, or contamination from other failing components in the refrigeration system.

Symptoms of a bad R134 drier include:

• Reduced cooling efficiency
• Frost buildup on the evaporator coils
• Unusual noises from the refrigeration system
• Increased energy consumption
• Refrigerator not maintaining the set temperature

This GE replacement part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models.

This baffle side discharge assembly directs dryer exhaust airflow to the side discharge port, helping maintain proper ventilation and reduce unusual noise from a damaged or misaligned baffle. Fits as a direct replacement for the original assembly. What it does

• Guides dryer exhaust air from the drum to the side discharge opening to maintain airflow.
• Helps prevent rubbing or contact between the drum and housing that can cause squeaks or scraping.
• Reduces the chance of airflow restriction that can extend drying times.
• Restores correct alignment of the exhaust path after damage or wear.

• One baffle side discharge assembly, as shown.

• Disconnect power before starting; for gas dryers, turn off the gas supply and disconnect per local codes.
• Installation typically requires removing access panels and the dryer drum or housing; have basic hand tools ready.
• Handle edges carefully and avoid forcing the part; proper alignment is needed for quiet operation and correct airflow.

The Water Inlet Valve is an OEM part for GE refrigerators. It is responsible for controlling the flow of water into the refrigerator’s ice maker and water dispenser. The valve opens and closes to allow the right amount of water to fill the ice maker tray or to dispense water from the refrigerator door.

Over time, the water inlet valve can wear out or become damaged due to mineral deposits, corrosion, or electrical issues. A faulty valve can lead to problems with the water supply, affecting the refrigerator’s ability to produce ice or dispense water properly.

Symptoms of a bad water inlet valve include:

• No water or ice production
• Water dispenser not working
• Leaks or drips around the valve or inside the refrigeratorStrange noises coming from the valve area

This GE replacement part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models.
