Description
Restore the proper starting and running function of your refrigerator's compressor with the "GE WR09X10106 Compressor Start Relay/PTC". This component, sometimes referred to as a "5SP OVERLOAD/PTC," is essential for providing the initial surge of power needed to start the compressor motor and then maintaining a safe operating current. A faulty relay or overload is a common reason a refrigerator stops cooling.
Features & Benefits:
- "Regulates Start-Up Current", Provides a temporary power boost to the compressor motor to initiate the cooling cycle.
- "Protects Compressor", The overload function monitors current draw and temperature to shut off the compressor if it overheats.
- "OEM Reliability", Ensures accurate electrical specifications and durable, long-lasting performance.
- "Easy Replacement", Designed for a simple plug-in installation directly onto the compressor pins.
Common Symptoms That Indicate Replacement:
- Refrigerator is not cooling, and the compressor is not running.
- A loud, brief clicking sound is heard every few minutes (the overload tripping).
- The compressor attempts to start but quickly turns off.
- The relay itself shows signs of burning, rattling, or an electrical short.
