If your refrigerator is not cooling, the compressor fails to start, or you hear a clicking sound coming from the back of the unit every few minutes, the start relay and capacitor assembly is likely failing. This component is responsible for providing the initial power surge required to kick-start the compressor motor.
First, always disconnect the refrigerator from the power source. Locate the compressor at the rear of the unit and remove the terminal cover. Carefully note the wire configuration before disconnecting the old relay and capacitor. Install the new unit by securing it in the same position and reconnecting the wires to match the original color-coded configuration. Ensure all connections are tight before replacing the cover and restoring power.
Before replacing the relay, ensure the refrigerator is receiving power and that the thermostat or control board is calling for cooling. If the compressor is physically damaged or seized, replacing the relay will not resolve the issue. It is also good practice to vacuum the condenser coils while you have the back panel open, as restricted airflow can cause the compressor to overheat and put unnecessary strain on the start relay.
