Refrigerator Compressor Start Device - How it Works & Installation Tips

This free how-to video explains how refrigerator compressor start devices work. The video also offers tips and tricks to aid you in the installation of your start device.

Refrigerator

Refrigerator not cooling

A start device, like a start relay, works in conjunction with the start winding to start the compressor. If the start device is defective, the compressor may sometimes fail to run or may not run at all. As a result, the refrigerator will not be cold enough. To determine if the start device is defective, use a multimeter to test it for continuity between the run and start terminal sockets. If the start device does not have continuity between the run and start terminal sockets, replace it. In addition, if the start device has a burnt odor, replace it.

Freezer not freezing

The freezer's start device, like a start relay, provides power to the compressor. If the start device isn’t working properly, the compressor may run intermittently or may not run at all. If the compressor won’t run, the freezer will not cool. To determine if the start device is defective, unplug the freezer and remove the start device from the compressor. Use a multimeter to test the start device for continuity between the start and run terminals. If the start device does not have continuity, or if it smells burnt, replace it.

Refrigerator freezer not freezing

A start device, like a start relay, works in conjunction with the start winding to start the compressor. If the start device is defective, the compressor may sometimes fail to run or may not run at all. As a result, the freezer won't be able to freeze. To determine if the start device is defective, use a multimeter to test it for continuity between the run and start terminal sockets. If the start device does not have continuity between the run and start terminal sockets, replace it. In addition, if the start device has a burnt odor, replace it.

Refrigerator has a bad smell or burning smell

A start device, like a start relay, works in conjunction with the start winding to start the compressor. If the start device has shorted, it can overheat and produce a burning smell. Inspect the start device for any damage and replace if necessary.

Freezer not running

Freezer is producing a burning smell

The compressor start device, also known as a start relay or start relay and overload kit, may have failed. This will usually cause the compressor to not start. If the burning smell is coming from the compresser area check the start device. If the start device smells burnt, or the compressor is trying to start but can't, the start device is likely bad and will need to be replaced.
