Description

This start device is the factory replacement part that helps the compressor start and protects it during startup, restoring reliable cooling cycles when the original start device fails. Fits single-compressor refrigeration systems that use the 5SP module. What it does:

• Provides the initial start boost the compressor needs to begin running
• Protects the compressor from repeated hard-start conditions
• Helps prevent warm-fridge symptoms caused by a compressor that won't start or stalls at startup
• Works with compatible refrigerator sealed-system components that use the 5SP start/protect configuration

What's included:

• One start device (5SP start/protect) as shown

Install notes:

• Installation requires access to the refrigerator compressor area; unplug the appliance and shut off power before starting
• Handle and route wires carefully; match connector types and terminal orientation when replacing
• Do not install a damaged part; inspect for shipping damage before installation
