Use this guide to replace the start relay assembly or compressor start device in your Whirlpool Refrigerator.
The start relay is a combination of the start relay, the overload relay, and the start capacitor, which are responsible for protecting your compressor's circuit. If the fans are running and your compressor won’t start, or if you hear a clicking sound from the unit, your start relay assembly might be broken.
This guide will work for most Whirlpool refrigerators. This guide is written with a model WRS315SDHW refrigerator. If you have a different model, you may encounter some minor disassembly differences, but the overall repair process will be the same.
Note: Some photos show the doors removed for clarity purposes. Removing them is not required and will not change the procedure.

Is it universal part
While the parts are similar, there are differences for fridges. If you can find your refrigerator model number, you'll be able to search online for the correct start relay for your specific model. Good luck!
