Description

A combo start device that helps the compressor start and run reliably by providing the initial boost and protecting against motor overload. Replaces a worn or failed start relay/overload assembly to restore normal compressor operation. What it does:

• Provides the initial start boost to the compressor motor so the refrigeration system can begin cooling.
• Contains relay/overload elements that help protect the compressor from overheating or electrical faults.
• Commonly used when the compressor hums but won't start, cycles rapidly, or the refrigerator fails to maintain temperature.
• Works as a direct replacement for a failed start/relay assembly in compatible compressors.

What's included:

• One combo start device (start relay/overload assembly)

Install notes:

• Always disconnect power before accessing the compressor or electrical components.
• Handle terminals carefully and match wiring orientation; replace with identical part number.
• After installation, verify compressor operation and listen for normal start/run behavior.
