Fridge Air On, Not Cooling
Previous issue with this refrigerator and I figure after the Hot summer we've had in TX that it overworked itself this summer in the garage! Caught this one before all was lost as it started it's not cooling cycle on a Sunday. Ordered the identical Relay&Overload from Parts Select, 2 days later I'm back to chilling the beer again! Super service with diagrams and specs. Very glad parts select is around!

My refrigerator's compressor is running, but the refrigerator nor the freezer is cooling.Will this part fix the problem?
For model number RT18EKREW03
Hello Don, thank you for your question. If the unit is not cooling at all but the compressor is running you should check to see if the evaporator at the back of the freezer is frosted up. Remove the back panel of the freezer and view the evaporator. If the coils are covered with ice then test the defrost heater and defrost thermostat for continuity. If there is no continuity then the part is bad and would need to be replaced. If there is continuity on both then the defrost timer would be the issue. If there is no frost covering the coils, and the parts are tested and have continuity, check the Temperature Control Thermostat Kit Part Number: 4387562. Turn the temperature control all the way down to the lowest setting and leave it for about 5 minutes. After that time frame, slowly turn the temperature control up. If you hear a click and the appliance turns on, the control is working. If all the previous tests are completed and none of the aforementioned parts are bad, you should replace the Compressor Relay and Overload Part Number: 4387913. I hope this helps!

My refrigerator makes a loud clunking noise when it shuts off, but otherwise runs fine. A friend suggested that it might be the compressor relay. Do you thinks this part will fix my problem?
For model number 10678902891
Hello Pat, Thank you for the question. Reading through the information for this model, it does sound like the relay is defective and will need to be replace. If this did not fix the issue, it might be a defective compressor. Hope this helps!

Where is the relay and overload located
For model number Et21lk whirlpool refrigerator
Hello Maurice, thank you for contacting us. We have researched and found that the relay and overload are located at the bottom of the back unit of the refrigerator with the compressor. The compressor and relay will become visible when you remove the lower back cover. We hope this helps!
