This overload is a compressor protector that helps prevent motor damage by interrupting power if the compressor draws excessive current or overheats. It's a small, snap-on device that keeps the refrigeration system from running under harmful conditions. What it does:

• Senses excessive current/temperature at the compressor and opens the circuit to stop the compressor
• Helps prevent compressor burnout and extended system damage
• Common symptom fixes: refrigerator not cooling, compressor runs but system won't start, humming or clicking from the compressor area
• Works with the compressor starter system to allow safe restart after a fault clears

• Disconnect power to the appliance before inspecting or replacing the overload
• Typically mounts on or near the compressor terminals; may require gently pulling compressor boot or terminal cover
• Handle carefully to avoid bending terminals; ensure secure terminal connections on installation

Capacitor supplies a short burst of stored electrical energy to help the appliance motor start and run efficiently. Replacing a failing capacitor can restore reliable motor startup and reduce humming or intermittent operation. What it does

• Provides the electrical boost motors need to start and maintain proper speed.
• A failing capacitor commonly causes motors to hum, struggle to start, run slowly, or stop unexpectedly.
• Used on motors and fans that require a start/run assist; replacing a bad capacitor often resolves startup and intermittent operation issues.

• Always disconnect power to the appliance before accessing electrical components.
• Discharge the capacitor safely (use insulated tools and gloves) before touching terminals — capacitors can hold a dangerous charge.
• Photograph or label wiring and terminal locations before removal so replacements reconnect exactly the same way.

Size: 8 x 1/2 ab.

This evaporator assembly circulates refrigerant and removes heat inside the freezer section to enable proper cooling and frost control. Replaces a damaged or corroded evaporator to restore normal temperature performance. What it does:

• Holds refrigerant and transfers heat so the freezer evaporates moisture and cools the compartment.
• Commonly used when frost builds up, freezer runs warm, or cooling is intermittent.
• Works with the sealed refrigeration system and defrost components to maintain proper cold temperatures.
• Designed to match OEM fit and function for compatible refrigerators.

• System evacuation, recharge, and leak testing are required after installation.
• Disconnect power before servicing to avoid electrical shock and appliance damage.
• Inspect related defrost and sealing components during replacement.

• Secures the defrost heater to the evaporator assembly to ensure consistent defrost cycles
• Prevents the heater from shifting or coming loose, which can cause frost buildup or interrupted defrosting
• Helps maintain proper contact for efficient heat transfer during defrost
• Small, inexpensive part that can prevent larger ice/frost-related issues

• Disconnect power to the appliance before accessing the evaporator compartment.
• Handle the evaporator fins and heater element carefully to avoid damage.
• Typically installs with basic hand tools; replace any damaged or corroded clips.

This OEM Replacement Part is a high-quality, 2-watt condenser fan motor for Whirlpool refrigerators.The motor is designed to optimize your refrigerator's cooling performance. This 115-volt motor operates with a clockwise rotation.  

Symptoms of a bad condenser fan motor kit include:

• Gradual rise in interior freezer temperatures
• Inability to maintain consistent cooling performance  
• Loud buzzing or grinding noises coming from inside
• Tripped breakers or failure to restart after service
