Reviews

Smaller than the original
January 04, 2023

This part was supposed to be an exact replacement, even per Sears Customer Service. It is actually much smaller in size making it much more likely to not stay in place, therefore, disconnecting. We bought a new wire from Sears, thinking the wire was also made smaller, but it ended up being the old size. We had to bend the wire in order to wrap it around the starter to try and keep it in place. Buyer beware.

Researched online as to what would cause the compressor to come on for a second and immediately go off. All signs pointed to the start relay. Overall time to put the new part in was probably less than 3 minutes.

Refrigerator Compressor Failed to Start
June 14, 2020

I watched the Sears Parts Direct videos about a failed to start refrigerator compressor. The start relay was most likely bad. The refrigerator is working with the new part. The videos made it possible for a woman with no experience to repair a refrigerator and save $1000.

My fridge kept clicking every couple of mins and after I googled ÒsymptomsÓ I determined it may need a new relay switch. (We're In the midst of COVID 19 and repairman we're not visiting homes). I purchased this relay and watched YouTube and installed it and the problem was fixed! (I'm a very unhandy woman so I'm thrilled this worked and saved me a lot of money)
