Genuine OEM 4317943 Refrigerator Ice Maker Kit
The 4317943 is a genuine OEM ice maker assembly kit from Whirlpool for Whirlpool-built refrigerators sold under the Whirlpool, Kenmore, KitchenAid, Maytag, Jenn-Air, Amana, Roper, and related names. The ice maker is the unit in the freezer that fills with water, freezes it, and ejects the cubes into the ice bin. Over time, contacts corrode and the mechanism wears out, and the refrigerator may make little or no ice, make too much, or leak water from the unit.
This is a complete replacement ice maker, so you swap the whole unit rather than hunting for a failed internal component. As a genuine OEM part, not an aftermarket equivalent, it matches the original factory fit and specification. The kit does not include the shut-off arm. Transfer the arm from your original ice maker, or order the arm for your model.
Quick Answer
The Genuine OEM 4317943 Ice Maker Kit fixes a Whirlpool-built refrigerator that is not making ice, making too little or too much ice, or leaking from the ice maker.

XPARTCO W10613606 Refrigerator Compressor Start Relay and Capacitor
The XPARTCO W10613606 is an aftermarket replacement compressor start relay and capacitor assembly compatible with a wide range of Whirlpool, Kenmore, Maytag, KitchenAid, Amana, Jenn-Air, Admiral, Crosley, Dacor, Hardwick, Inglis, Litton, and Magic Chef refrigerators. The start relay is a small but critical electrical component that plugs directly onto the compressor terminals and provides the initial power surge needed to start the compressor motor. Once the compressor reaches operating speed, the relay drops out — leaving the compressor to run on its own. The capacitor (rated 15µF ±5%, 250VAC) works alongside the relay to store and release the burst of electrical energy needed on startup.
When the start relay fails, the compressor cannot start — causing the refrigerator to stop cooling entirely. A failed relay typically produces a clicking sound every few minutes as the compressor tries and fails to start, followed by a short rest, then another attempt. This kit includes both the start relay and the CBB61 capacitor. It directly replaces W10416065, 8208290, 8208368, C8931605, 67003186, 67005560, 67005561, 67005562, 67003764, 8171210, and several additional cross-reference numbers. Installs in under 15 minutes — no tools required in most cases.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Refrigerator Before Starting Unplug the refrigerator from the power outlet before beginning. Move the refrigerator away from the wall to access the rear or lower back panel. Remove the rear access panel by unscrewing the retaining screws to expose the compressor. The compressor is a large black dome-shaped component — the start relay and capacitor assembly plugs onto the side terminals. Grip the old relay firmly and pull it straight off the compressor pins. Shake it — if it rattles, the internal contacts have failed and replacement is confirmed. Compare the old relay to the new W10613606 to confirm the terminal layout matches. Align the new relay with the compressor pins and press it firmly on. Reinstall the access panel, restore power, and listen for the compressor to start and run normally within a few minutes. Note: Some models may require trimming the wire connector tabs or reversing the connector orientation for a proper fit — do not force the connection. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver (for panel access only).
Frequently Asked Questions
What does the compressor start relay do?
The start relay plugs onto the compressor terminals and provides the brief but powerful surge of electrical current needed to start the compressor motor from a standstill. Once the compressor reaches operating speed — usually within a second or two — the relay drops out and the compressor runs on its own. Without a working start relay, the compressor cannot start at all, and the refrigerator stops cooling. The capacitor works alongside the relay to store and deliver the extra energy needed on startup.
How do I know if my start relay has failed?
The most reliable quick test is the rattle test: unplug the refrigerator, pull the start relay off the compressor, and shake it near your ear. A working relay is silent. A failed relay will rattle — the internal contacts have broken free and are loose inside the casing. Another sign is a repeated clicking sound every 2–5 minutes from the back of the refrigerator, where the compressor attempts to start, fails, trips the overload protector, rests, and tries again. If the fridge is warm and you hear clicking, check the relay first.
What is the difference between the start relay and the capacitor?
The start relay is the switching device that connects and disconnects the start winding of the compressor motor during startup. The capacitor stores a charge and releases it during startup to give the motor the additional torque it needs to get moving under load. Together they work as a startup system for the compressor. This kit includes both — replacing both at the same time ensures the complete startup circuit is fresh and reliable.
My fridge is still not cooling after replacing the start relay — what else could it be?
If replacing the start relay does not restore cooling, other possible causes include a failed compressor (the compressor runs but no longer builds pressure), a refrigerant leak in the sealed system, a failed start capacitor (if not replaced along with the relay), a bad overload protector, or a faulty main control board. Listen carefully after installing the new relay — if the compressor now starts and runs but the fridge still doesn't cool after several hours, a sealed system issue or refrigerant problem is likely and will require a certified technician.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is an aftermarket replacement part built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine Whirlpool OEM part, but is manufactured to match the electrical specifications and terminal configuration of the original W10613606 start relay and capacitor assembly.

XPARTCO W10384183 Refrigerator Thermistor Replaces WPW10384183
The XPARTCO W10384183 is an aftermarket replacement thermistor for Whirlpool refrigerators, and also fits select Kenmore, Maytag, Amana, KitchenAid, and Ikea models. This sensor detects the temperature inside the refrigerator or freezer and sends that reading to the electronic control board, which uses it to regulate cooling and manage the defrost cycle.
Finished in black and white, made of plastic and metal, this thermistor measures approximately 4-1/2"L x 9/16"W x 1/4"H, with a 1" probe and a 3.5" lead. Includes the thermistor with its probe and wiring harness/plug. Over time, the sensor's electronics can drift or fail from age or moisture exposure. Because this sensor also plays a role in the defrost cycle on many models, a failing thermistor can cause the evaporator coils to overly frost or ice up, blocking airflow and preventing cool air from reaching the refrigerator compartment even though the freezer itself may still seem cold. Symptoms include inconsistent cooling, a refrigerator that isn't cooling despite a cold freezer, or the appliance failing to defrost properly. It directly replaces WPW10384183, W10384183, 2118228, EAP11753996, AP6020677, AWP50093, PD00035299, PS11753996.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Refrigerator Before Starting — Defrost Any Iced-Over Coils First Unplug the refrigerator and safely store any food that could spoil while the power is off. Wear work gloves. Remove the interior panel covering the evaporator coils, typically located in the freezer. If the coils and fins are heavily frosted or iced over, allow them to fully defrost before continuing — you can speed this up with a hair dryer on a low setting, kept a safe distance away, or simply let the unit sit unplugged with the door open for a few hours. With the coils clear, locate the old thermistor and unclip it from its mounting position, noting how it's routed. Unclip the wiring harness from the old thermistor. Clip the new W10384183 thermistor into the same position, and reconnect the wiring harness fully, making sure the probe is positioned exactly as the original was. Reinstall the interior panel. Restore power and monitor the refrigerator's temperature over the next 24 hours to confirm consistent, accurate cooling and normal defrost cycling have returned. Tools needed: sockets, screwdriver, multimeter (for testing the old sensor), work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
My freezer feels cold but the refrigerator side isn't cooling. Is this the part I need?
Yes, this is a documented pattern tied to this thermistor. One customer described their evaporator coils and fins as "overly freezing," which blocked cool air from reaching the refrigerator compartment even though the freezer itself was fine. Replacing this thermistor, after first defrosting the iced-over coils, resolved the issue.
My refrigerator isn't defrosting properly. Could this be the cause?
Yes, this is a documented symptom. One customer specifically described their unit "not defrosting" and resolved it by replacing this sensor, calling the repair "very straightforward." Since this thermistor feeds temperature data into the defrost cycle on many models, a failing sensor can prevent the defrost system from operating correctly.
Do I need to defrost the coils before replacing this part?
If your evaporator coils are heavily frosted or iced over, yes — clear that ice first so you can properly access and route the new thermistor, and so you can accurately judge whether the repair has resolved the airflow problem once everything is back together.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is an aftermarket replacement part built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine Whirlpool OEM part, but is manufactured to match the sensing function, probe design, and wiring harness configuration of the original WPW10384183 thermistor used in compatible Whirlpool, Kenmore, Maytag, Amana, KitchenAid, and Ikea refrigerators.

⚠️ Unplug Refrigerator Before Starting Unplug the refrigerator and safely store any food that could spoil while the power is off before installing this part. Wear work gloves to protect your hands. Locate the old temperature sensor per your model's service diagram, since its position varies by refrigerator model. Photograph the wiring connection before disconnecting anything. Disconnect the wiring harness from the old sensor, remove any mounting clips or fasteners holding it in place, and pull it free. Install the new DA32-00024W in the same position, reconnect the wiring harness fully, and secure any mounting hardware. Restore power and monitor the refrigerator's temperature over the next 24 hours to confirm consistent, accurate cooling has returned. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver (model-dependent), work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
My refrigerator's temperature seems inconsistent. Is this the part I need?
Yes, this is a common symptom of a failing temperature sensor. Since this sensor is what reports internal temperature to the control board, a drifting or failed sensor can cause the refrigerator to run warmer or colder than intended, or to cycle inconsistently as the control tries to work from inaccurate data.
What does the "R-DEF" in this sensor's designation mean?
This suggests the sensor plays a role in the refrigerator's defrost-related temperature monitoring on applicable models. If you're seeing frost buildup or defrost cycle problems in addition to general cooling inconsistency, this sensor is worth checking alongside other defrost system components, such as the defrost thermostat or heater.
Is this a difficult repair?
No, replacing this sensor is generally a straightforward repair once you've located its mounting position, which can vary by model. It typically involves disconnecting a wiring harness and removing a small mounting clip or fastener.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?

XPARTCO WR55X10025 Refrigerator Temperature Sensor
The XPARTCO WR55X10025 is an aftermarket replacement refrigerator temperature sensor (thermistor) compatible with a wide range of GE, Hotpoint, Haier, Café, and Monogram refrigerators. The temperature sensor monitors air temperature inside the fresh food and freezer compartments and sends that data to the main control board, which uses it to regulate cooling cycles and maintain the correct set temperature. When the sensor fails, the refrigerator may run too warm, too cold, or experience erratic defrost behavior.
This sensor measures approximately 1-1/4 inches long and includes 18-inch wire leads. It is constructed from white plastic and is used in both fresh food and freezer compartments depending on the model — on some models it also functions as a defrost sensor on the evaporator coil. It directly replaces OEM part numbers WR55X10025 and a large number of earlier GE thermistor part numbers. Sold individually — some models require two sensors. Installs in under 30 minutes with basic hand tools.
Quick Answer
The XPARTCO WR55X10025 Refrigerator Temperature Sensor fixes GE and Hotpoint refrigerators that are too warm, too cold, not defrosting, or over-defrosting. The thermistor monitors compartment temperature and communicates with the control board. Approx. 1-1/4" long with 18" leads, white plastic. Compatible with GE, Hotpoint, Haier, Café, and Monogram refrigerators. Sold individually.
Common Problems This Part Fixes

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Refrigerator Before Starting Unplug the refrigerator from the power outlet before beginning any repair. To access the fresh food thermistor, locate the sensor on the left wall of the fresh food compartment — it may be clipped into a housing or bracket. Disconnect the wire connector and pull the old sensor out of its bracket. Slide the new WR55X10025 sensor into the bracket and reconnect the wire connector. To access the freezer or evaporator thermistor, remove the freezer shelves and back panel, then locate the sensor clipped to the evaporator coil bracket. Remove any tie wrap securing the sensor, pull the old sensor from the bracket, insert the new sensor, and reconnect the wire connector. Reinstall the back panel and shelves, restore power, and verify the refrigerator returns to the correct set temperature. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, flat pry tool (for panel clips), work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
How many temperature sensors does my GE refrigerator have?
The number of sensors varies by model. Many GE French door and side-by-side refrigerators use two or three WR55X10025 sensors — one in the fresh food compartment, one in the freezer, and sometimes one on the evaporator coil. Check your model's parts diagram or contact our support team with your model number to confirm how many you need before ordering.
What is a thermistor and how does it work?
A thermistor is a type of resistor whose electrical resistance changes with temperature. The main control board sends a small voltage through the thermistor and measures the resistance — a higher resistance means a lower temperature, and a lower resistance means a higher temperature. The board uses this reading to decide when to run the compressor and fans to maintain the set temperature. A failed thermistor sends incorrect readings, causing the refrigerator to over-cool, under-cool, or malfunction during defrost cycles.
Can a faulty temperature sensor cause the refrigerator to not defrost?
Yes. On models where the WR55X10025 also serves as the defrost sensor on the evaporator coil, a faulty sensor can cause the control board to incorrectly time or skip defrost cycles entirely — leading to excessive frost or ice buildup on the evaporator coils. This frost buildup can eventually block airflow and cause both the refrigerator and freezer sections to warm up.
How do I know if my temperature sensor is the cause of my cooling problem?
The most reliable way to test the thermistor is with a multimeter. Disconnect the sensor and measure its resistance at room temperature — a working WR55X10025 should read approximately 16,000 ohms at 32°F, dropping as temperature increases. An open circuit (infinite resistance) or short circuit (zero resistance) reading confirms the sensor has failed. If resistance is within the normal range but the refrigerator still has issues, the control board or other components may be at fault.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is an aftermarket replacement part built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine GE OEM part, but is manufactured from durable plastic to match the dimensions and performance specifications of the original WR55X10025 temperature sensor.

XPARTCO HS810 Refrigerator 3-in-1 Hard Start Kit 1/12 to 1/5 HP 120V
The XPARTCO XPHS810 is a universal 3-in-1 hard start kit that combines a solid-state starting relay, a start capacitor, and thermal overload protection into a single prewired unit for refrigerator and freezer compressors rated 1/12 to 1/5 HP at 120V (110–125VAC). It's designed as a direct equivalent to the widely used Supco RCO810 and similar kits, giving a struggling compressor extra starting torque to overcome internal friction and gas pressure at startup — commonly used to fix the classic "click-buzz-click" no-start symptom without replacing the entire compressor.
The kit is fully prewired with color-coded leads (typically black = Common, white = Start, red = Run) and mounts directly onto the compressor's terminal pins, with instructions printed on the unit itself. It directly replaces Supco RCO810, URCO810, URC0810, RC0810, RC100, TJ90RCO810, AP4503019, ERP810, ERPU810, HS8, HS810, HS81, PCS810, and Mars 32781. Installs in 15–30 minutes with basic hand tools.
Quick Answer
The XPARTCO HS810 3-in-1 Hard Start Kit fixes refrigerators and freezers whose compressor makes a repeated "click-buzz-click" sound and fails to start, or that shut off on thermal overload during startup. Combines relay, start capacitor, and overload protector in one prewired unit for 1/12 to 1/5 HP compressors, 120V, 3.5A RLA. Replaces Supco RCO810, URCO810, RC0810, RC100, TJ90RCO810, AP4503019, ERP810, HS8, HS810, HS81, PCS810, Mars 32781. Do not install on LG linear/inverter compressors — see Installation Notes.
Common Problems This Part Fixes
Compressor makes a repeated "click-buzz-click" noise and fails to start
Refrigerator or freezer runs warm because the compressor won't stay running
Compressor hums but doesn't start, then trips off on overload
Refrigerator cycles on and off rapidly without reaching temperature
Older or worn compressor that starts hard, especially after a power outage
⚠ Capacitor Hazard — Read Before Servicing This kit contains a start capacitor, which can store a dangerous electrical charge even after the refrigerator is unplugged. Always disconnect power before servicing, and discharge the capacitor safely (using an insulated-handle resistor tool or by briefly shorting the terminals with an insulated screwdriver) before handling it. Never touch capacitor terminals with bare hands. If you are not comfortable working around stored electrical charge, have this repair performed by a qualified technician.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Refrigerator Before Starting — Discharge Capacitor Safely Disconnect power before beginning. Before touching any wiring, check your compressor's data label to confirm it is NOT a linear/inverter/BLDC compressor — this kit is not compatible with those and can damage the inverter board if connected. Access the compressor compartment, typically at the rear or bottom of the unit. Remove the existing relay/overload assembly by gently pulling it straight off the compressor terminal pins — do not force or twist. Use a multimeter to confirm which pins are Common (C), Start (S), and Run (R) if not already labeled. Connect the hard start kit's wires to the matching pins. Wire the kit's main power leads into the refrigerator's supply wiring using wire nuts, following the included diagram. Secure the kit with zip ties or its mounting strap to prevent vibration damage during compressor operation. Restore power and confirm the compressor starts smoothly without repeated clicking. Tools needed: nut driver or screwdriver, digital multimeter, wire nuts, insulated screwdriver (for capacitor discharge).
Frequently Asked Questions
My compressor makes a clicking or buzzing sound and won't start — will this fix it?
A hard start kit resolves this in many cases, especially on older or worn compressors that struggle to overcome internal gas pressure at startup. However, "click-buzz-click" can also indicate a failing compressor winding or a compressor nearing end of life. If the hard start kit doesn't resolve the issue, the compressor itself may need replacement — a hard start kit can extend a marginal compressor's life but can't revive one with failed internal windings.
Can I use this on any refrigerator?
This kit works on standard PSC and RSIR compressors within the 1/12 to 1/5 HP range at 120V. It is NOT compatible with LG linear/inverter compressors or any variable-speed inverter-driven compressor — connecting it to one of those can destroy the inverter control board. Check your compressor's label for "Inverter," "Linear," "BLDC," or "Digital" before ordering.
Do I need to remove my existing start capacitor or relay first?
Yes — remove the old relay/overload assembly from the compressor terminal pins before installing this kit. The XPHS810 is designed to work with or without an existing separate run capacitor remaining in the circuit, but the old start relay and any old start capacitor should be removed and replaced by this kit, not left in place alongside it.
Is this safe to install myself?
Many DIYers install hard start kits successfully, but this repair involves a capacitor that can hold a dangerous electrical charge even after the unit is unplugged, plus correctly identifying compressor terminals. If you're not comfortable working around stored electrical charge or don't have a multimeter to confirm terminal identification, we'd recommend having a qualified technician perform this repair.

DA97-07603B Genuine OEM Samsung Refrigerator Ice Maker
The DA97-07603B is a genuine Samsung OEM ice maker assembly for Samsung and select Maytag refrigerators. This is the freezer ice maker, located inside the freezer compartment — it is not the in-door icemaker used on many other Samsung models. This is a plastic tray-style ice maker with a 9-cube flex tray design, an 8-pin connector, and includes a motor for ice ejection, a water valve to fill the mold, and a thermostat that senses temperature and signals when it's time to release the finished ice.
This complete assembly contains the entire ice maker and its housing. If the mold's coating is flaking, or internal components have stopped functioning, replacing the full assembly resolves both problems at once. Failure symptoms include the ice maker not producing ice, reduced ice production, or loud popping sounds coming from the ice maker during operation. It directly replaces DA61-03213B, DA97-07603B, DA97-05037D, DA97-07603A, 2688774, DA59-00294A, DA61-03213B, DA63-06415A, DA97-05037A, DA97-05037C, DA61-05227, AP5651755, ASM105616, PD00002034, PS5575313.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Refrigerator And Shut Off Water Supply Before Starting Unplug the refrigerator from the power outlet and turn off the water supply before beginning. Wear work gloves. On bottom-freezer drawer-style models, most of the time in this repair goes toward removing the trays from the freezer and pulling the freezer door/drawer out for access — budget extra time for this step. Remove the ice maker cover by lifting it away from the housing. Remove the ice bucket and any cover plates blocking access. Photograph the wiring connection before disconnecting anything. Unscrew the ice maker from its housing, disconnect the water line connection and the 8-pin electrical connector, and carefully lift the old assembly out of its compartment. Install the new DA97-07603B in the same position, reconnect the water line and electrical connector fully, and secure it to the housing with its screws. Reinstall the ice maker cover, cover plates, and ice bucket, then replace the freezer trays and close the freezer door/drawer. Restore the water supply and power, then allow several hours for the first cycle to complete and confirm ice is being produced normally. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
My ice maker makes loud popping sounds. Is this the part I need?
Yes, this is a documented symptom of a failing ice maker assembly, alongside reduced or stopped ice production. If you're hearing unusual popping noises during the ice-making cycle, replacing the complete assembly addresses the underlying mechanical or electrical issue rather than trying to isolate and repair a specific internal component.
My refrigerator has an in-door ice maker. Will this part fit?
No. This DA97-07603B is specifically a drop-in replacement for the freezer compartment icemaker and will not fit an in-door icemaker used on many other Samsung refrigerator models. Check where your current ice maker is physically located — inside the freezer versus built into the refrigerator door — before ordering.
Is this the same as the DA97-07603C icemaker I've seen for other models?
No. While this part does replace the earlier DA97-07603A version, it is explicitly not a suitable substitute for the DA97-07603C icemaker used on other Samsung models, despite the similar numbering. Always confirm your full model number rather than assuming based on a close part number match.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is a genuine OEM part, manufactured by Samsung to factory specifications — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance. It matches the original mold design, motor, water valve, and thermostat configuration of the freezer ice maker originally installed in your refrigerator.
