XPARTCO DA97-15765C Refrigerator Condenser Fan Motor
The XPARTCO DA97-15765C is an aftermarket replacement condenser fan motor assembly for Samsung French door refrigerators. This assembly includes both the motor and the fan blade together, and it lives in the compressor/machine compartment at the back or bottom of the refrigerator, where its job is to pull air across the condenser coils and compressor to carry heat away from the refrigeration system. That's a different job from an evaporator fan — this motor cools the mechanical side of the system rather than circulating cold air to your food, so a failing condenser fan tends to affect the whole refrigerator's cooling capacity rather than just one compartment.
Rated 12V DC, 0.14A, 1.7W, running at approximately 1,120 RPM. On many Samsung models, a failed condenser fan motor triggers a 23C or 23E error code on the display, alongside symptoms like noticeable vibration or noise from the condenser area, elevated internal temperatures, or the over-temperature alarm sensor tripping. Common causes include normal wear on the motor bearings after prolonged use, blockages from dust and debris accumulation around the coils, or damage from moisture exposure. A fan blade that tries to spin but can't complete a full revolution, or that needs a manual nudge to keep turning, is a classic sign this assembly has started to fail. It directly replaces DA97-15765A, DA97-12842A, DA97-12842B, DA97-12842D, DA97-15765D, AP6001015, PS11733650, EAP11733650, DA31-00340A, RMF002ASSA, and 4959328.
Quick Answer
The XPARTCO DA97-15765C Refrigerator Condenser Fan Motor fixes Samsung French door refrigerators where the whole unit runs warm, the compressor area is noisy or vibrating, a 23C or 23E error code appears, or the over-temperature alarm trips. Includes motor and fan blade. 12V DC, 0.14A, 1.7W, ~1,120 RPM. Replaces DA97-15765A, DA97-12842A, DA97-12842B, DA97-12842D, DA97-15765D, AP6001015, PS11733650, EAP11733650, DA31-00340A, RMF002ASSA, 4959328. This cools the compressor and condenser coils — a different part and symptom pattern than an evaporator fan, which only affects internal air circulation to the food compartments.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Refrigerator Before Starting — Store Perishable Food Separately Disconnect power at the outlet before beginning, and move perishable food to a cooler for the duration of the repair. Wear work gloves. Remove all shelves from the upper refrigerator cabinet to improve access. Using a flat-blade screwdriver, gently ease the back panel away from the cabinet — on many models it's retained by a cam bracket and snaps into place, so it should release without excessive force. This exposes the condenser/circulating fan. Before condemning the motor, clear away any dust, lint, or debris built up around the condenser coils and fan blade — restricted airflow from a dirty coil produces symptoms similar to a failing motor and costs nothing to rule out. Photograph the wiring harness connector and the fan blade's position before disconnecting anything. Remove the two screws holding the fan in place, unplug the fan lead harness connector, and remove the defective fan assembly. Install the new DA97-15765C in the same position, reconnect the harness plug, and reinstall and tighten the two mounting screws securely. Confirm the blade spins freely by hand without contacting the housing or coils before reinstalling the back panel — it should snap back into place via the cam bracket. Reinstall the shelves, restore power, and monitor the refrigerator over the next 24 hours to confirm normal, even cooling has returned and any error code has cleared. Tools needed: flat-blade screwdriver, Phillips screwdriver, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
My display shows a 23C or 23E error code. Does that mean I need this part?
It's a strong indicator on many Samsung models, since these codes are commonly associated with condenser fan motor failure. Before ordering, it's still worth a quick visual check — clear any dust or debris from around the condenser coils and fan blade, since a heavily clogged condenser can sometimes trigger similar temperature-related codes. If the error persists after cleaning, or if the fan blade doesn't spin freely by hand, this assembly is the likely fix.
The fan blade tries to spin but won't complete a full turn. Is that normal?
No — this is a classic sign the motor bearings are wearing out or that something is obstructing the blade. A healthy condenser fan should spin freely and continuously once started. If you find yourself needing to give the blade a manual nudge to keep it turning, or it stalls partway through a rotation, the motor has failed and needs to be replaced rather than repeatedly restarted by hand.
Both my fresh food and freezer sections are warm. Is this the right part?
Yes, that pattern points toward the condenser fan rather than an evaporator fan. Because the condenser fan cools the compressor and coils that the entire refrigeration cycle depends on, a failing condenser fan tends to reduce cooling capacity across both compartments together, rather than leaving one side fine while the other struggles.
Does this include the fan blade, or just the motor?
This is a complete assembly that includes both the motor and the fan blade together, so there's no need to transfer a blade from your old unit or source one separately.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is an aftermarket replacement part built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine Samsung OEM part, but is manufactured to match the electrical specifications (12V DC, 0.14A, 1.7W, ~1,120 RPM), fan blade design, and mounting configuration of the original DA97-15765C condenser fan motor assembly used in compatible Samsung French door 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.

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. Depending on your refrigerator model, the fresh-food temperature sensor is typically located behind the air tower or damper assembly on the rear interior wall of the refrigerator compartment; the freezer temperature sensor is typically located behind the rear freezer access panel near the evaporator coils. Confirm which sensor location matches your symptom and the parts diagram for your specific model before starting. Remove all shelves, drawers, and any items blocking access to the sensor location. Remove the screws holding the air tower/damper cover (fresh food side) or rear freezer access panel to expose the sensor. Photograph the sensor position, wire routing, and connector before removing. Disconnect the wire connector (gently — the connector can be fragile) and release the sensor from its mounting clip. Fully insert the new 240597220 sensor probe into the card slot (no exposure) and secure with the mounting clip. Reconnect the wire connector — plug wiring terminals tightly to avoid poor contact. Use cable ties to secure any loose wire routing as before. Reinstall the cover or panel, replace the shelves and drawers, and plug the refrigerator back in. Allow several hours for the refrigerator to return to its set temperature before reloading with food. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, cable ties, multimeter (for testing), work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does OP error code mean on my Frigidaire refrigerator?
The OP error code (Open) indicates the control board is detecting an open circuit on a temperature sensor input — meaning the sensor is failing to send a resistance signal, either because the sensor itself has failed open internally, the wire has broken, or the connector isn't seated. Replacing the temperature sensor typically resolves the code when the sensor itself is the cause. If the code persists after replacement, check the wire harness between the sensor and the control board for damage, and confirm the connector is fully seated. If the OP code appears alongside other symptoms like frost buildup and cooling issues that persist after sensor replacement, the defrost temperature sensor (on the Harness-Low Side, a different part number) may also need to be replaced, or the main control board may be at fault.
How do I test if the temperature sensor has failed?
Unplug the refrigerator, disconnect the sensor's wire connector, and set your multimeter to resistance mode. At room temperature (approximately 25°C / 77°F), a working NTC thermistor should read approximately 10K Ohms. 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. If it reads significantly off from 10K (for example 8.4K or 5K at room temp), the sensor has drifted and is no longer providing accurate readings — replacement is recommended. Any of these results confirms the sensor needs replacement.
My refrigerator has multiple temperature sensors — which one do I replace?
Frigidaire refrigerators typically use multiple temperature sensors: one in the fresh food compartment (behind the air tower/damper), one in the freezer compartment (near the evaporator coils), and often a separate defrost temperature sensor on the Harness-Low Side. The 240597203 is used as the fresh food or freezer compartment temperature sensor. If your symptom is "fresh food too warm" or "freezer over-freezing," the fresh food sensor is the likely candidate. If your symptom is "freezer icing up despite defrost heater working," the defrost temperature sensor may be the culprit — a different part number. Check your refrigerator's parts diagram to confirm the correct sensor location for your specific symptom.
Does this sensor fit my Kenmore refrigerator?
On many Kenmore refrigerators, yes — Sears sells Kenmore-branded refrigerators that are manufactured by Frigidaire/Electrolux, Whirlpool, LG, and Samsung. The 240597203 sensor fits Kenmore refrigerators with model numbers beginning with the 253, 106, or 795 prefixes that are Frigidaire/Electrolux-built. Kenmore refrigerators built by other manufacturers (Whirlpool, LG, Samsung) use different sensors. Check the first three digits of your Kenmore model number — if it's 253, 106, or 795 and falls within the compatible model list, this is the correct part.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is a Genuine OEM part manufactured by Frigidaire/Electrolux to factory specifications. It is the exact same temperature sensor installed in compatible Frigidaire, Electrolux, Kenmore, Crosley, White-Westinghouse, Kelvinator, Gibson, Tappan, Viking, and Ikea refrigerators from the factory — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance.

Description: This Refrigerator Condenser Fan Motor Assembly is an essential component designed to maintain optimal cooling performance in select Samsung refrigerator models. This Genuine OEM part ensures reliable operation by efficiently circulating air through the condenser coils, preventing overheating and maintaining consistent temperatures.
WR55X10025 Genuine OEM GE Refrigerator Temperature Sensor
The WR55X10025 is a genuine GE OEM temperature sensor, also called a thermistor, for GE, Hotpoint, and Kenmore refrigerators. This sensor measures air temperature inside the refrigerator or freezer compartment and reports it continuously to the main control board, which uses that reading to regulate the cooling cycle. On some models, this same sensor design also serves as the defrost sensor mounted on the evaporator coil, monitoring temperature there to help manage the defrost cycle.
Because the control board relies entirely on this sensor's reading to make cooling decisions, a failing or inaccurate sensor can cause the refrigerator to run too cold, too warm, or run for excessively long periods as it tries to correct a temperature it's misreading. On models where it doubles as a defrost sensor, a failure here can also contribute to frost or ice buildup in the freezer. This is a relatively inexpensive part, and it's commonly the actual cause behind symptoms that get mistakenly blamed on the main control board. It directly replaces AP3185407, 914093, AH304103, EA304103, PS304103, WR50X10027, WR50X10034, WR50X10055, WR50X10067, WR55X10025B, WR55X10026, WR55X10027, WR55X10028, WR55X10030, WR55X10087, WR55X10088, WR55X10089, WR55X10367, WR55X10380, WR55X10661, WR55X10711, WR55X10735, WR55X10736, WR55X10737, WR55X10937, WR55X10938, WR55X10939, WR55X11121, WR55X11141, WR55X11150, WR55X11151, and WR55X11152.
Quick Answer
The WR55X10025 Genuine OEM GE Refrigerator Temperature Sensor fixes GE, Hotpoint, and Kenmore refrigerators that run too cold, too warm, run for excessively long periods, or (on models where this sensor doubles as a defrost sensor) show frost or ice buildup in the freezer. A healthy sensor reads approximately 5,000 ohms at 77°F. Replaces AP3185407, 914093, AH304103, EA304103, PS304103, and a wide range of WR50X/WR55X-prefix numbers listed below.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Danger — Authorized Service Part Required For Flammable Refrigerant Systems GE's own service guidance carries an explicit warning for this component: it is a manufacturer-authorized service part intended for use in refrigerator models that use a flammable refrigerant, such as R600a. Using an unauthorized or incorrectly rated service part in a unit that uses a flammable refrigerant could lead to a risk of fire or explosion. Before ordering or installing, confirm your refrigerator's refrigerant type and verify this part is correct for your specific model. If you have any doubt about your refrigerant type or the correct part for your unit, contact our support team with your model number before proceeding, or have a qualified appliance technician perform this repair.
⚠️ Unplug Refrigerator Before Starting — Test With A Multimeter Before Replacing Disconnect power at the outlet before beginning, and move perishable food to a cooler for the duration of the repair. Wear work gloves. Before replacing, it's worth testing the old sensor with a multimeter set to ohms — a healthy sensor reads approximately 5,000 ohms at 77°F; a reading well outside that range, or an open circuit, confirms a failed sensor. Locate the sensor, typically mounted on an interior wall of the compartment or clipped to the evaporator coil depending on your model. Photograph the wiring and mounting position before disconnecting anything. Disconnect the sensor's wire connector, remove any mounting clip or bracket, and pull the old sensor free. When positioning the new WR55X10025, make sure it sits in open air away from direct contact with ice buildup areas, since ice touching the sensor can cause it to read colder than the compartment's actual temperature. Reconnect the wire connector and secure the mounting clip. Restore power and monitor the refrigerator over the next 24 hours, comparing the display temperature to an independent thermometer placed in the compartment to confirm accuracy. Tools needed: multimeter, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I test whether this sensor has actually failed?
Use a multimeter set to ohms and test the sensor across its two terminals. A healthy sensor typically reads approximately 5,000 ohms at 77°F room temperature; a reading significantly outside that range, or no reading at all (open circuit), confirms the sensor has failed and should be replaced.
My display shows a temperature that doesn't match how cold the fridge actually feels. Could positioning be the issue, not the sensor itself?
Yes, this is a documented and somewhat subtle failure mode. If the sensor ends up positioned too close to an area where ice or frost accumulates, the ice's surface temperature can pull the sensor's reading colder than the actual compartment air temperature, causing the display to show a colder number than reality — sometimes off by several degrees. One customer traced exactly this issue to ice buildup near the sensor location and resolved it by ensuring the new sensor sat clear of that ice-prone area during installation.
Could my problem actually be the control board instead of this sensor?
It's worth testing this sensor first before assuming a control board issue. This is a relatively inexpensive part, and it's commonly the actual root cause behind symptoms that get misdiagnosed as a control board failure, since the board is only ever as accurate as the temperature data it receives. Testing or simply replacing this sensor is a low-cost step worth taking before pursuing a more expensive board repair.
Why is there a fire/explosion warning on this part?
Some refrigerators use a flammable refrigerant, such as R600a (isobutane), instead of older non-flammable refrigerants. Electrical components near refrigerant lines can be a source of ignition if a leak were ever present, which is why GE requires an authorized, correctly rated service part for these systems rather than a generic substitute. Confirming your model and refrigerant type before ordering is the appropriate precaution.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is a genuine OEM part, manufactured by GE to factory specifications — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance. It matches the original resistance curve and mounting configuration of the temperature sensor originally installed in your refrigerator.

215846604 Genuine OEM Frigidaire Refrigerator Defrost Timer
The 215846604 is a genuine Frigidaire OEM defrost timer, mounted inside the refrigerator near the top of the back wall. This timer is the scheduler for the defrost circuit: on a set cycle, it switches the refrigerator out of normal cooling mode and into a defrost mode, energizing the defrost heater long enough to melt any frost that has accumulated on the evaporator coil, then switches back to cooling once defrost is complete. This cycle repeats automatically for as long as the refrigerator runs, which is why a healthy timer is essential to preventing frost buildup in the first place.
Rated 120V with a 6 hour, 21 minute cycle, measuring approximately 1.5"H x 3.2"L x 2.3"W. When this timer fails, the defrost heater never gets the signal — and the electrical energy — it needs to run, so frost keeps accumulating on the coil unchecked. A failing timer typically shows up as heavy frost or ice buildup on the evaporator coil, a freezer that runs too cold or too warm, or a refrigerator section that isn't cooling properly because ice-caked coils can't transfer heat efficiently anymore. It directly replaces AP2592907, 08003824, 08011620, 1748201, 241809401, 241809402, 442754, 5300541134, 5300800692, 5308003824, AH423802, EA423802, PS423802, and CC304.
Quick Answer
The 215846604 Genuine OEM Frigidaire Refrigerator Defrost Timer fixes Frigidaire, Kenmore, Crosley, Kelvinator, Gibson, Tappan, and Westinghouse refrigerators and freezers with heavy frost or ice buildup on the evaporator coil, a freezer running too warm or too cold, or a refrigerator section not cooling properly. 120V, 6 hour 21 minute defrost cycle. Replaces AP2592907, 08003824, 08011620, 1748201, 241809401, 241809402, 442754, 5300541134, 5300800692, 5308003824, AH423802, EA423802, PS423802, CC304. Before replacing, test the defrost thermostat and defrost heater with a multimeter — if both test good, the timer is the most likely faulty component.
Common Problems This Part Fixes
Heavy frost or ice buildup on the evaporator coil
Freezer compartment running too cold or too warm
Refrigerator section not cooling properly

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Refrigerator Before Starting Disconnect power at the outlet before beginning, and move perishable food to a cooler for the duration of the repair. Wear work gloves. Locate the defrost timer control inside the refrigerator, typically near the top of the back wall — on some models it may be located behind a rear access panel or near the control housing instead, so check your specific model if it isn't immediately visible. Photograph the wiring harness connector before disconnecting anything. Use a screwdriver to remove the screws securing the timer in place, then carefully disconnect the wiring harness from the back of the old timer. Connect the wiring harness to the new 215846604 timer, matching the original connector orientation, and secure it in place with the mounting screws. Restore power and monitor the refrigerator over the next day to confirm the defrost cycle is running on schedule and frost is no longer accumulating excessively on the coil. Tools needed: screwdriver, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if the timer is actually the problem and not the defrost heater or thermostat?
The defrost timer, defrost heater, and defrost thermostat all work together in the same circuit, so it's worth testing the other two before assuming the timer has failed. Test the defrost thermostat and the defrost heater with a multimeter — if both test as functioning properly, it's very likely the timer is the faulty component causing the defrost cycle not to run.
There's heavy frost or ice on the coil. Is that definitely the timer?
It's one of the most common causes. If the timer fails to advance into the defrost portion of its cycle, the heater never gets the signal or the power it needs to run, so frost keeps accumulating on the evaporator coil with nothing to melt it off. This is exactly the scenario this timer is designed to prevent when it's working correctly.
What's the difference between 215846604 and 215846602?
These are different timers with different cycle lengths — this 215846604 runs a 6 hour, 21 minute cycle, while 215846602 runs a 6 hour, 40 minute cycle and replaces a separate group of part numbers. They are not interchangeable, so always confirm which specific number your refrigerator's parts diagram calls for before ordering.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is a genuine OEM part, manufactured by Frigidaire to factory specifications — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance. It matches the original cycle timing, switch contacts, and wiring harness configuration of the defrost timer originally installed in your refrigerator.

Installation Notes
Safely store temperature-sensitive food before leaving the refrigerator door open for service.
Compare the new gasket with the original before removing the old seal.
If the replacement gasket arrives folded or creased, allow it to relax at room temperature or gently warm it according to manufacturer guidance before installation.
Remove the old gasket carefully and clean the mounting surface.
Install the new gasket evenly around the door perimeter without stretching it.
Close the door and inspect the entire seal for gaps, twists, or rolled edges.
Fit tip: GE service guidance notes that shipping folds/creases can be smoothed by warming the gasket gently. Do not overheat or deform the gasket.

XPARTCO WR07X10131 Refrigerator Compressor Overload Relay
The XPARTCO WR07X10131 is an aftermarket replacement compressor start relay and overload, a PTCR combination device, for GE, Hotpoint, Kenmore, and RCA refrigerators. It plugs onto the compressor, helps the compressor start by managing the current it draws at startup, and protects it against overload while it runs. When it fails, the compressor may click but not start, and the refrigerator and freezer stop cooling.
This is a direct-fit aftermarket replacement for the original GE part. A failed relay is one of several causes of a compressor that won't run, so confirm the symptoms and test the relay before replacing it.
Quick Answer
The XPARTCO WR07X10131 Compressor Overload Relay fixes a GE, Hotpoint, Kenmore, or RCA refrigerator whose compressor clicks but won't start, or whose refrigerator and freezer have stopped cooling. Classic symptom: you hear a click from the back of the refrigerator every few minutes, the compressor never runs, and both compartments warm up.
Common Problems This Part Fixes
Refrigerator and freezer have stopped cooling
Compressor clicks but doesn't start
Compressor won't start at all
Compressor cycles on and off or trips repeatedly

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Power Before Installing Unplug the refrigerator before beginning, and wear work gloves. Pull the refrigerator out and remove the rear access cover to reach the compressor, then disconnect the wire connector and any retaining clip, and pull the old relay straight off the compressor terminals. Push the new relay on in the same orientation, reattach the clip and connector, and replace the cover. Do not touch or disturb the sealed refrigerant lines. Allow the refrigerator several hours to cool after restoring power.
Frequently Asked Questions
My refrigerator isn't cooling and the compressor clicks. Is this the part I need?
A failed start relay and overload is a common cause of a clicking compressor that won't start. With the refrigerator unplugged, you can test the relay for continuity. A failed compressor or a failed run capacitor can look similar.
What does this part do?
It helps the compressor start by regulating the current sent to it at startup, and it protects the compressor from overload while it runs.
Do I need to open the sealed refrigerant system?
No. The relay plugs onto the compressor terminals from the outside, and the refrigerant lines are not touched.
Will this fit my refrigerator?
It is listed for many GE, Hotpoint, Kenmore, and RCA refrigerators, but the model list above is only a sample. Check your model number against your parts diagram, or contact our support team and we'll verify it before you order.
