I knew that it could be a anything refrigerant, thermostat & all but thought about how power to the compressor. So I ordered a run capacitor. The chat confirmed that it might be but suggested I get a start relay. I should have listened & saved shipping fee. Replaced both and the compressor started humming as it should, Took me 20 minutes. Thanks guys.

Thanks to the advice on your website, a new capacitor was ordered and easily installed following your video. Thanks to a less than $40 dollar repair we did not have to spend hundreds to replace the refrigerator! Thank you so much!

Our Whirlpool refrigerator would come on go off and not come on again.

I replaced the capacitor first but still had the same problem. Tried the thermostat second and that fixed the problem. Your repair videos really helped! If I can do this, anyone can. Don't be afraid. Bought repair parts based on your percentage of failures. Thanks again!

Fridge and freezer were not cooling.

Replaced it with the part that was recommended. It was a capacitor. Once I replaced the part and plugged the fridge back into the wall, the fridge kicked on and started working. The fridge got down to the set temperatures. However the fridge cooled for about 18 hours and then stopped working again. I contacted customer service and told them the problem, and they are sending me another part.

Trying to start multiple times before starting. I called a repair person who said there was nothing wrong, but i felt differently

I looked up my model and with the information on troubleshooting, I thought it worth ordering a capacitor. I looked on uTube how to install. My neighbor came over and we took off the panel and replaced the capacitor in 10 minutes!
