Choice 4389102 Refrigerator Ice Level Control Board Replaces W11629974
The Choice 4389102 is a Choice-tier replacement ice level control board kit for Whirlpool refrigerators, and also fits select Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models with a vertical ice container in the freezer door. This kit uses an infrared beam between an emitter and receiver board to sense the level of ice in the ice bucket, signaling the ice maker to produce more ice when the level drops and to stop when the bucket is full.
Weighs approximately 0.23 lbs. Common causes of failure include electrical problems, general wear and tear, or damage from power surges or short circuits. Symptoms of a failing ice level control board include the ice maker not producing ice, the ice maker not stopping production when full, irregular or inconsistent ice production, or error codes related to the ice maker control system. It directly replaces W11629974, W10757851, 4389102, 2198585, 2198586, 2220398, 2220402, 2255114, 4388635, 4389102R, W10193666, W10193840, W10290817, W11553040, W11553041, AP7205486, AWP45901, EAP16875489, PD00086112, PS16875489.
Quick Answer
The Choice 4389102 Refrigerator Ice Level Control Board fixes Whirlpool, Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore refrigerators where the ice maker isn't producing ice, won't stop when full, or produces ice inconsistently. Emitter and receiver board kit — both boards need replacing together. Replaces W11629974, W10757851, 4389102, 2198585, 2198586, 2220398, 2220402, 2255114, 4388635, 4389102R, W10193666, W10193840, W10290817, W11553040, W11553041, AP7205486, AWP45901, EAP16875489, PD00086112, PS16875489.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Refrigerator Before Starting — Confirm With The LED Test Before Replacing Unplug the refrigerator and safely store any food that could spoil while the power is off. Wear work gloves. Before installing this kit, confirm the boards are actually at fault: with the refrigerator still plugged in, check the status light on the control board — it should blink twice, pause, then repeat during normal operation. With the freezer door open, hold down the flapper door on the left side to block the optics beam; the LED should light up and stay on with no blinks. If it continues to blink twice instead, the optics control board has failed. If there's no LED light at all, hold down the freezer light switch — the LED should flash every second while in harvest mode; if it doesn't light up, the board has failed. Once confirmed, unplug the refrigerator, locate the emitter and receiver boards near the ice bucket opening in the freezer door, and disconnect their wiring. Remove the mounting screws or clips securing the old boards and take them out. Install both new boards from this kit in the same positions, reconnect the wiring fully, and secure the mounting hardware. Restore power and monitor ice production over the next day or two to confirm normal operation. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
My ice maker stopped making ice. Is this the part I need?
Possibly, but control boards are commonly misdiagnosed. Before replacing this board, check more commonly defective parts first — such as the water inlet valve, ice maker assembly itself, or the freezer temperature. If you've ruled those out and the other components are working properly, this control board is a reasonable next step.
How can I confirm this board has actually failed before replacing it?
Check the LED status light's blink pattern. During normal operation it should blink twice, pause, then repeat. With the freezer door open, hold down the flapper door on the left side to block the beam — the light should turn solid with no blinking. If it keeps blinking twice instead, or doesn't light up at all when it should be in harvest mode (checked by holding the freezer light switch), the board has failed.
Do I need to replace just the emitter or receiver, or both?
Both. This kit includes a matched emitter and receiver board, and both need to be replaced together as a pair rather than swapping just one side.
What does "Choice" mean for this part?
Choice parts are manufactured by an independent supplier, different from the appliance's original manufacturer, and built to equivalent fit, form, and function specifications. This gives you a dependable, lower-cost alternative to a Genuine OEM part, distinct from our OE parts, which are sourced from the same supplier as the original manufacturer.

XPARTCO WR55X10942C Refrigerator Control Board
The XPARTCO WR55X10942C is an aftermarket replacement main control board for GE, Hotpoint, RCA, and select Kenmore refrigerators. This board is the central processor for the refrigeration system — it regulates temperature, manages the defrost cycle, and controls compressor operation, coordinating everything that keeps both the fresh food and freezer compartments at the correct temperature. Electrical surges and ordinary long-term wear are both common causes of this board failing.
Manufacturer part number 200D4850G022. A failing control board produces a wide range of symptoms because so many functions run through it: inconsistent or fluctuating temperatures, a refrigerator that runs too warm or too cold, the refrigerator not starting at all, unusual clicking noises as the board misfires relay signals, or ice that melts and refreezes as the defrost cycle malfunctions. It directly replaces WR55X10942, WR55X10942P, WR55X10942CT, WR49X10060, WR55X10024, WR55X10037, WR55X10045, WR55X10056, WR55X10065, WR55X10079, WR55X10083, WR55X10086, WR55X10090, WR55X10097, WR55X10109, WR55X10110, WR55X10151, WR55X10160, WR55X10171, WR55X10174, WR55X10177, WR55X10187, WR55X10188, AP7188100, and PS16729744.
Quick Answer
The XPARTCO WR55X10942C Refrigerator Control Board fixes GE, Hotpoint, RCA, and select Kenmore refrigerators with inconsistent temperatures, a fridge running too warm or too cold, the unit not starting, clicking noises, or ice that melts and refreezes from a malfunctioning defrost cycle.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Refrigerator Before Starting — Handle The Board By Its Edges Unplug the refrigerator or shut off power at the breaker before beginning to avoid electrical hazards. Wear work gloves. Access is typically through a rear cover panel: remove the screws securing the cover to reach the board. Photograph all harness connections before disconnecting anything — this board has multiple connectors, and reconnecting one in the wrong position will cause a malfunction or no-start symptom. Handle the new board by its edges rather than touching the components directly, and avoid working in conditions with static buildup, since these boards can be sensitive to static discharge. Remove the mounting screws, disconnect each harness connector from the old board, and lift it free. Position the replacement WR55X10942C board in the same location, secure it in place, and reconnect all harnesses firmly, matching the original connector locations exactly as photographed. Put the rear cover back on and tighten the screws, then restore power and confirm normal cooling and defrost operation, along with any dispenser or interior lighting behavior your model has. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, nut driver, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
My refrigerator temperature keeps fluctuating for no clear reason. Is this the control board?
It's a strong possibility, especially if you've already ruled out simpler causes like a door seal that isn't sealing properly or a condenser coil that needs cleaning. Since this board regulates both temperature and the defrost cycle together, a failing board can cause the refrigerator to swing between too warm and too cold as it struggles to manage the system correctly.
Could a power surge have caused this failure?
Yes, this is a documented and common cause of control board failure. Electrical surges, including those from storms or grid fluctuations, can damage the board's circuitry outright, leading to sudden symptom onset. If your refrigerator's issues started abruptly, especially after a storm or power event, this board is a reasonable first suspect.
There are so many similar GE control board part numbers. How do I make sure I'm ordering the right one?
This is a real and common point of confusion, since GE has released many visually similar boards across different refrigerator generations that are not all interchangeable. The safest approach is to match your refrigerator's full model number against this listing's compatibility rather than relying on how similar a board looks to your old one. If you're at all unsure, send us your model number and we'll confirm fitment before you order.
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 to match the processor, relay switching, defrost control circuitry, and harness connector configuration of the original WR55X10942C control board used in compatible GE, Hotpoint, RCA, and Kenmore refrigerators.

DA32-00029X Genuine OEM Samsung Refrigerator Temperature Sensor
The DA32-00029X is a Genuine OEM Samsung replacement refrigerator temperature sensor compatible with select Samsung side-by-side and French door refrigerators, as well as related Kenmore Samsung-built models. This NTC (negative temperature coefficient) thermistor continuously monitors the temperature inside the refrigerator and sends resistance-based readings to the electronic control board, which uses this data to cycle the compressor, fans, and defrost heaters to maintain accurate, consistent temperatures throughout the appliance. As the thermistor heats up or cools down, its electrical resistance changes predictably, allowing the control board to calculate the exact temperature in real time.
When this sensor fails — whether shorted, open, or providing drifted/inaccurate readings — the refrigerator may run too cold or too warm, cycle excessively, fail to maintain set temperatures, run continuously, ice up the evaporator, or display temperature-related fault codes. As a Genuine OEM part manufactured by Samsung to factory specifications, the DA32-00029X is rated approximately 13.2 kΩ at 20°C (68°F) when functioning correctly. It is one of the variants in the DA32-00029 sensor family — Samsung uses different production-run variants (M, N, Q, U, X) across model generations, all functionally similar but with different wire harness connectors. Installs in 20–30 minutes with basic hand tools.
Quick Answer
The DA32-00029X Genuine OEM Samsung Refrigerator Temperature Sensor fixes Samsung side-by-side and French door refrigerators that run too cold or warm, cycle excessively, freeze up the evaporator, fail to maintain set temperatures, or display temperature-related fault codes. Genuine OEM Samsung NTC thermistor — approximately 13.2 kΩ at 20°C (68°F). One of the DA32-00029 series variants (M, N, Q, U, X) — confirm your specific variant by connector style before ordering.
Common Problems This Part Fixes
Refrigerator running too cold or too warm — sensor not accurately reporting temperature to the control board
Inconsistent temperatures — fluctuating cooling that can't maintain set point
Excessive or frequent defrost cycles — control board misreading temperature
Refrigerator running continuously without cycling off
Heavy frost or ice buildup on the evaporator coils caused by erratic defrost timing
Food spoilage from temperature instability
Temperature-related error codes displayed on the control panel
Multimeter test shows 0 ohms (shorted) or infinite resistance (open) instead of the expected ~13.2 kΩ at room temperature

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Refrigerator and Move Perishable Food Before Starting — Wear Work Gloves Unplug the refrigerator and safely store any food that could spoil while the power is off. Wear work gloves to protect your hands. Samsung refrigerators typically have multiple temperature sensors — fresh food compartment, freezer compartment, and evaporator/defrost sensors — confirm which sensor location matches your symptom and parts diagram before starting. The fresh food and freezer sensors are typically clipped to a wall or shelf bracket inside each compartment, while evaporator/defrost sensors are mounted near the evaporator coils behind a rear access panel. Take a photo of the sensor mounting and wire routing before removing. Disconnect the sensor's wire connector (gently — the molex connectors can be fragile) and release the sensor from its mounting clip. Inspect the connector for corrosion or heat discoloration on the wires — discoloration indicates prior overheating in that area. Install the new DA32-00029X sensor in the same position, reseat the connector firmly, and secure the mounting clip. Restore power, allow several hours for the refrigerator to return to its set temperature, and confirm stable temperature operation before reloading with food. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, multimeter (for testing), work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if the temperature sensor has failed?
Unplug the refrigerator, disconnect the sensor's connector, and set your multimeter to resistance mode. At room temperature (around 20°C/68°F), a working NTC thermistor should read approximately 13.2 kΩ. If the sensor reads 0 ohms, it has shorted internally. If it reads infinite resistance (open circuit, often shown as "OL" on the multimeter), the sensor has failed open. Either reading confirms the sensor needs replacement. If the sensor reads close to 13.2 kΩ at room temperature but the refrigerator still has temperature problems, the control board or another sensor in the system may be the actual cause.
My Samsung refrigerator has multiple temperature sensors — which one do I replace?
Samsung refrigerators typically use multiple temperature sensors: one in the fresh food compartment, one in the freezer compartment, and one near the evaporator coils (often called the defrost sensor). The DA32-00029X is used as the fresh food or freezer compartment temperature sensor on select Samsung models. Confirm the exact mounting location for your specific symptom (e.g., fresh food too warm vs. freezer too cold) and your refrigerator's parts diagram before ordering. The evaporator/defrost sensor is typically a different part number, so don't assume the DA32-00029X covers all sensor positions.
What is the difference between DA32-00029X and DA32-00029M, N, Q, or U?
These are all variants of the same Samsung refrigerator temperature sensor family. They share the same NTC thermistor design and resistance characteristics (approximately 13.2 kΩ at 20°C), but use different wire harness connector configurations to match different refrigerator generations and wiring designs. The X variant is used on select Samsung side-by-side and French door models, while M, N, Q, and U variants appear on other model groups. They are not automatically interchangeable — match the variant to your refrigerator's exact part diagram, or visually compare connector styles before ordering.
My Samsung fridge is icing up the back wall — could this be the sensor?
Possibly, yes. If the temperature sensor near the evaporator (the defrost sensor) is misreporting temperature, the control board may not trigger the defrost cycle when needed, allowing ice to build up on the evaporator coils. Eventually this ice migrates to the rear interior wall as a frozen sheet. If your symptom is back-wall icing combined with poor cooling, the evaporator sensor is a likely cause — but confirm whether the DA32-00029X is the evaporator sensor on your specific model, or whether your model uses a different part number for that position. Always verify against your model's parts diagram.
Is this a Genuine OEM or aftermarket part?
This is a Genuine OEM part manufactured by Samsung to factory specifications. It is the exact same temperature sensor installed in compatible Samsung side-by-side and French door refrigerators (and Kenmore Samsung-built models) from the factory — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance.

XPARTCO W10316760 Refrigerator Thermistor Sensor
The XPARTCO W10316760 is an aftermarket replacement temperature thermistor compatible with a wide range of Whirlpool-built refrigerators sold under the Whirlpool, KitchenAid, Maytag, Jenn-Air, Amana, Inglis, and Magic Chef brands. The thermistor sits inside the fresh food or freezer compartment and continuously reports internal temperature back to the electronic control board, which uses that reading to cycle the compressor, evaporator fan, and damper to keep the compartment in range. When the thermistor drifts out of calibration or fails outright, the control board loses an accurate temperature signal and the refrigerator commonly responds with erratic cooling, a warmer-than-normal compartment, food freezing when it shouldn't, or a flashing/blank temperature display.
This XPARTCO version is built with a quick-connect mounting clip, so it plugs in without cutting or splicing wires — unlike the genuine Whirlpool OEM part, which ships as a splice-in kit requiring you to cut the old thermistor's leads and join the new ones with included wire connectors. It directly replaces W10316760, WPW10323459, W10323459, 12791417, 12791417SP, 12791419SP, 1876627, W10280385, W10280386, W10308052, W10316760VP, W10438639, W10438761, W10452402, AH2580944, AP4538142, AWP40532, EA2580944, EAP2580944, PD00006590, PS2580944, and additional cross-reference numbers listed below.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Disconnect Power Before Starting Unplug the refrigerator or shut off power at the breaker before accessing internal panels. Locate the thermistor at its mounting position inside the fresh food or freezer compartment (location varies by model — consult your model's parts diagram if unsure). Photograph the wire routing before disconnecting. On this XPARTCO version, simply unplug the old thermistor's connector from the wiring harness — no cutting or splicing needed. Release the old thermistor from its mounting clip or bracket and remove it. Install the new thermistor in the same position, securing it in its mounting clip. Plug the new thermistor's connector into the wiring harness, matching your photos. Reassemble any panels removed for access. Restore power and allow the refrigerator several hours to stabilize before checking temperatures. Tools needed: nut driver or screwdriver (for panel access), needle-nose pliers (for mounting clip).
Frequently Asked Questions
Is this the same as the genuine Whirlpool W10316760 thermistor?
It's a direct-fit aftermarket equivalent, not the genuine Whirlpool part. The key functional difference is installation: the genuine OEM version ships as a splice-in kit requiring you to cut the old wires and use included splice connectors, while this XPARTCO version has a quick-connect clip that simply plugs in — no splicing tools needed.
Will this fit my refrigerator?
W10316760 and its cross-reference numbers span a wide range of Whirlpool-built models across several brands. Confirm fit using your refrigerator's exact model number before ordering, since visually similar thermistors are used across different platforms and compartment locations. Contact our support team with your model number if you're unsure.
My fridge is warm but the freezer is fine (or vice versa) — could this part be the cause?
Yes. Most of these refrigerators use separate thermistors for the fresh food and freezer compartments, so a single failed sensor can cause one section to run warm while the other stays normal. Confirm which sensor location your model uses before ordering.
Do I need any tools to install this?
Basic hand tools to access the interior panel (typically a nut driver or screwdriver) plus needle-nose pliers to release the old mounting clip. Because this version uses a plug-style connector, no wire strippers, cutters, or splice connectors are needed — unlike the genuine OEM splice-kit version.
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 resistance curve, mounting position, and temperature-sensing function of the original W10316760 thermistor used in compatible Whirlpool, KitchenAid, Maytag, Jenn-Air, Amana, Inglis, and Magic Chef refrigerators.

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 WR51X10055 Refrigerator Defrost Heater Assembly
The XPARTCO WR51X10055 is an aftermarket replacement refrigerator defrost heater and bracket assembly compatible with a wide range of GE, Hotpoint, Kenmore, Haier, Americana, Monogram, and Café refrigerators. The defrost heater is a glass quartz tube heater mounted on a bracket below the evaporator coils in the freezer compartment. During each automatic defrost cycle, the heater energizes and melts any frost that has accumulated on the evaporator coils — maintaining unobstructed airflow through the coils so the refrigerator can cool efficiently. When the heater fails, frost accumulates on the coils unchecked, blocking airflow and causing both the freezer and fresh food sections to gradually warm up.
Rated at 120V, 725W, this single quartz tube heater assembly measures 12-1/8" L x 3-3/8" W x 2-1/8" H and includes the heater element and mounting bracket. It directly replaces WR51X10030, AP3183311, 914088, AH303781, EA303781, PS303781, SH323, and EAP303781. Often replaced together with the defrost thermostat (WR50X10068) and temperature sensor (WR55X10025) for a complete defrost system repair. Installs in 20–30 minutes with basic hand tools.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Refrigerator Before Starting — Wear Work Gloves Unplug the refrigerator before beginning. Remove all food and shelving from the freezer compartment. Remove the freezer bottom drawer and the back panel screws (typically 2 hex-head screws). Slide out the back panel to expose the evaporator coils and defrost heater assembly. If the coils are covered in frost or ice, use a hair dryer to melt the ice before removing the heater — do not chip or force the heater free while iced over, as the glass element is fragile and will break. Disconnect the heater wires from the wiring harness — note the orientation before disconnecting. Remove the 2 Phillips screws securing the heater bracket and lift the heater assembly out. Install the new WR51X10055 heater assembly in the same position, reconnect the wires, and reinstall the bracket screws. Reinstall the back panel, shelving, and food. Restore power and verify the defrost cycle operates normally. Wear work gloves throughout — the evaporator area has sharp edges. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, 1/4" nut driver, hair dryer (if coils are iced over), work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does the refrigerator defrost heater do?
Modern refrigerators use an automatic defrost system that periodically runs a defrost cycle — typically once or twice a day — to melt frost that accumulates on the evaporator coils during normal operation. The defrost heater is a glass quartz heating element that energizes during this cycle and melts the frost off the coils. This keeps the coils clear so air can flow freely through them to cool the refrigerator. When the heater fails, frost builds up unchecked on the coils over days or weeks — eventually blocking airflow completely and causing both compartments to warm up, even though the compressor is still running.
How do I know if my defrost heater has failed?
Remove the freezer back panel to expose the evaporator coils. If the coils are heavily coated in frost or solid ice — especially if both the freezer and refrigerator sections have been warming up — a failed defrost heater is the most likely cause. You can confirm with a multimeter: disconnect the heater and probe both wire ends. A working heater shows continuity (resistance between approximately 10–200 ohms at room temperature depending on wattage). No continuity confirms the heater element has burned out. Also visually inspect the glass tube — a burned, blackened, or broken tube is a clear sign of failure.
Should I also replace the defrost thermostat and temperature sensor?
Yes — since the freezer must be fully emptied and the back panel removed to replace the heater, it is highly recommended to also replace the defrost thermostat (WR50X10068) and temperature sensor (WR55X10025) at the same time. All three components form the defrost system and wear at similar rates. A failed thermostat or sensor can cause the heater to run too long or not at all — replacing all three in a single repair eliminates that risk and saves you from another complete freezer teardown in the near future.
My freezer is warming up but the compressor is running — is it the defrost heater?
It often is — but not always. A compressor that is running but not cooling can be caused by a failed defrost heater (frost blocking airflow), a faulty evaporator fan motor (air not circulating), a defrost thermostat or timer failure, or a sealed system problem (refrigerant leak or compressor issue). The easiest way to distinguish a defrost system failure from other causes is to open the freezer and check whether frost has built up on the back panel or coils. If yes, the defrost heater is the most likely culprit. If the coils are clear and the compressor is running, look at the evaporator fan or sealed system next.
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 as a single quartz tube glass heater rated at 120V/725W to match the dimensions and performance of the original WR51X10055 defrost heater assembly.

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.
