• Helps address symptoms like warm temperatures, compressor clicking or humming without starting, or frequent overload trips
• Failure may show as rattling, burn marks, or a melted relay housing

• Disconnect power and remove the rear access panel to reach the compressor
• Allow components to cool; note wire locations and take a reference photo
• Pull the old relay straight off the compressor pins; align and firmly seat the new relay in the same orientation, then reconnect wires
• If your unit uses a run capacitor and/or separate overload protector, reconnect per the wiring diagram before restoring power
