Description
This replacement relay engages the compressor at startup to help the cooling system run. It's a direct-fit electrical relay that restores proper compressor starting behavior when the original relay fails. What it does:
- Switches the compressor motor into its start winding to get the motor running
- Stops compressor from repeatedly clicking or humming when it can't start
- Helps restore normal cooling when a failed relay prevents the compressor from starting
- Works as the electrical starting component the compressor relies on for power-up
What's included: One relay Install notes:
- Disconnect power to the appliance before inspecting or replacing the relay to avoid shock
- Handle electrical connections carefully; match terminal positions before reassembly
- Test with a multimeter or replacement relay if you're troubleshooting compressor start issues
