Hi All, I have an old Whirlpool ET8CHMXKB00 and the Start Relay is bad. I found the recommended part replacement on Whirlpool WP4387938 and ordered it. Where I'm stuck is that the old start relay had two pins and the new relay only has one. The top wire in the old housing is going to the...

This is a small upright freezer that's only a few years old, but it sits in a pretty tight space. Found items thawing in the freezer the other day and the sides of the freezer were very warm, so I figured maybe it had been left open a crack and was having trouble keeping up. But no! I turned the...

I have a Kenmore Elite HE5 that I got out of storage after several years and it's not working right now but was put away working OK. Initial symptom was no heating at all. I tested all the cutoff switches for continuity, and the thermistor was in spec for ohms, etc. I tried a lot of cycles...

I noticed that the fridge light occasionally didn't come on when opening the door. I replaced the bulb but the situation persisted. Yesterday, I noticed that my Diet Coke (TM) was not very cold, so I suspected that the light not working may be related to the fridge not cooling. I cleaned the...

Hi all, In the process of trouble-shooting my refrigerator issues (thread) I ended up taking apart the 3 n 1 start relay to see what was going on. Big "well derrr" from everyone here I'm sure :) but for me it rang a bell with what the guy at the parts store said to me, "This will also replace...

After a power outage, our pfss6pkxcss fridge stopped cooling. At first, we noticed the front display was showing the old temps, but clearly these were inaccurate because it was no longer cool in there, so we turned-off the circuit breaker and left it off for 15 mins. When we turned it back on...

Hello, I have a Maytag electric oven (model number MER5765RCS) that was previously working find and is now heating up very slowly after a power surge. Everything on the oven works fine, clock / display, buttons, range elements, even the broiler, except the oven heats up very slowly. When I...

Started that fridge doesn't cool, compressor doesn't seem on, clicking noise every 4 minutes or so. Thought it was the start capacitor, I now have a replacement and also a replacement start relay. Seems to happen with either combination of the new or old relay or capacitor. However, I was...

Hello! I recently bought a mini-fridge that I plan on gifting to my Dad for Father's Day. From my understanding, it just needs a new starter relay. The only problem is, I think I am going to break the thing before I can even fix it. For the life of me, I can not get this relay cover off. From...

I have a Maytag MDB4949SHB0 that is about 3 or 4 years old. It has been working fine but today it just stopped working. I followed the reset procedure but that did not help. When starting the dishwasher (on any cycle) it will fill with water but then never go into wash mode (i.e. the motor...

Hi. So I had a buzzing relay along with heating slowly a few weeks ago so I ordered another one and put it in. The first time I did this it worked like a charm and has been going strong for about 6 years, but unfortunately, this time around the buzzing came back along with the stove heating...

I have an old fridge that I believe is tripping on O/L. The number on it 5901083. I was just curious as to if there is a newer replacement or a bypass to get the thing running again. Thanks in advance.

Model Number: 40-391-694 Brand: GE Age: More than 10 years First of all, I'm not sure if that's the right model number. I'm not an appliance guy so I just chose one of the numbers on the motor and rolled with it. Anyway, I have a coworker that bought a really old GE fridge and asked if I...

I have learned more about refrigerators in the last two days than anyone should be expected to in a lifetime. I have suffered, though I see light at the end of the tunnel. The other night while I was on my computer I heard an annoying humming sound, I thought it was the computer. When I turned...

Hello. My Haier kegerator (HBF05EABB) has crapped out. i.e the refrigeration system doesn't run at all. I did some research and found this thread on this site which at first looked very helpful. Problem is none of the parts shown in the thread look like my system. The attached photos show...

Hi, I just bought a vintage Frigidaire MD 641 . When I plug it and it runs for a few seconds and cuts off. I started to replace the power cord because it was in real bad shape thinking that might be the problem. When I got inside the relay I noticed that someone has previously try to wire this...

Friends, I have a Frigidaire, top freezer refrigerator which is just blowing room temperature air. I took the back panel off, took out the relay and the capacitor and tested them (continuity test for relay, ohm and voltage for capacitor) and they are working fine. I also tested out the...
