The Compressor Start Relay is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool refrigerators. It is an electrical component within the refrigeration system responsible for energizing the compressor.

Causes of a bad compressor start relay can include worn out or degraded contacts and coils due to age and continuous use over many cycles. Heat and vibrations may also contribute to internal component failure.

Symptoms of a bad compressor start relay include:

• The compressor not engaging even when temperatures rise
• Lack of cold air and proper cooling within the refrigerator or freezer
• Abnormally loud running noise from the compressor
