Great part - works as expected
Symptom: Compressor would start and then run for a couple of seconds and shut down. Both at start and stop it would make loud clicking sound. As a result the fridge temperature would not go down, because the run time was too short. Fan was working at all times. Solution: I ordered first the Run Capacitor - 120V, item no. PS3495561 but the situation was unchanged. I then ordered the Start Device item no. PS1151970 which instantly brought the compressor back to normal operation. Fridge got really cold in about 2 hours. Start device is a little different than the original piece, the cap that goes over does not fit exactly, but the connections are solid and it works with no problem. Installed 3 weeks ago and it works flawlessly since. Installation was easy, less than 10 minutes each time, although you work in cramped quarters. Would buy again.

Good part but need a bit of tweaking.
It was not a plug and play installation. I had to modify the wire connectors of the refrigerator to be able to fit it to the controller. Once done it was working as expected. Gave my fridge a second life!

Sorry, we couldn't find any existing installation instruction that matched.
Refrigerator was trying to cycle compressor on, but each time the compressor started, it would stop due to the thermo breaker would open. The fans continued to run, so I figured it was starter relay.
Moved the refrig. out, removed the four screws that held the lower access panel in place. Disconnected the power cord. Removed the retainer clip wire and pulled the relays from the compressor socket. Separated the relays and installed the secondary relay on the new starter relay. Reinstalled the starter relay assembly into the compressor socket. Plugged the power cord in and listened for the compressor to cycle on. It cycled on and continued to run. Turned the power off and reinstalled the retainer clip wire. Reinstalled the access panel and plugged the power back in and left the refrig. run overnight. Checked temperature and also started the ice maker. Everything was normal by morning.

Compressor would not start.
After earlier determing that the starter switch was at fault, I removed the cardboard lower back panel, shut off water to the ice maker, removed water line. The plug to the compressor containing the switch and capacitor was held on by a spring clip, removed clip pulled wires from old switch (Here needle nose pliars are handy as the spade clips on the 2 wires have their own locking clips) replaced switch and all wiring, tested unit and problem solved.

Starter went out.
Unscrewed the lower back cardboard panel and removed it. Unplugged refrigerator. Reached in and took the metal piece off that keeps the starter from coming off. Pulled the starter off the compressor. Unplugged the starter from the power line. Replaced starter. Hooked power line back on. Hooked starter to the compressor. Put the metal piece back on to hold in place. Plugged refrigerator back in. Put back panel back on.
