Common Symptoms That Indicate Replacement

  • The compressor tries to start but fails, or buzzes and clicks repeatedly without running. partselect.com+1

  • The appliance (refrigerator) isn’t cooling properly or is not maintaining temperature.

  • The relay/overload unit shows visible signs of damage (burn marks, melted casing, rattling when shaken).

  • The compressor overheats or trips the circuit (overload condition).

  • Extended runtime without effective cooling signals internal motor stress which can originate from a failing overload relay.

If you observe these symptoms, consult your maintenance technician. This part may solve the problem, but verifying the cause prevents wasted effort.

Compatibility Notes

  • Always verify your appliance’s full model number and the existing part number before purchasing. The WR07X10097 is designed specifically for certain compressor systems; if your appliance differs, this part may not be suitable. geapplianceparts.com+1

  • Because the compressor circuit is involved, a failure may also indicate other underlying issues (e.g., sealed system leak, main board fault, motor problem). The relay/overload assembly replacement is most effective when it's confirmed as the root cause.

  • Installation should be performed by a qualified technician, especially when dealing with compressor systems, refrigerant, or sealed compartments. Reading the appliance’s service manual is highly recommended.

  • After replacement, monitor the appliance for several hours of normal operation to ensure the issue is resolved.
