Best video yet. Very helpful and to the point.

I think you should've mentioned cleaning out all the dust in the back of your refrigerator also.

Thank you for your video, fixed my problem. Saved me so much trouble and money.😀

Thank you!! My part was $20 but, slightly differing but everything else was spot on. I went from this video, heard the 'click', identified the part number and amazon had it to me the next day. $20 to fix it! Thank you again!!

Matt, THANK YOU for this video, saved me a load of time and patience to fix my unit.!

I like to thank you for the videos. Very educational I fix my refrigerator just following your steps U make me a hero with my wife. thanks man

Wow! You are amazing! I bet soooo many fridges r thrown away bc stupid techs just say your compressor is bad instead of replacing the relay start!

👍 very helpful video buddy, easy fix. I went to local appliance repair shop for the part. was worried the price would be way more than I found on Amazon. To my surprise only $5.00 more, I was more than willing to pay that for an immediate fix, instead of a weeks wait. Thanks buddy

Thank you so much this video was so helpful and exactly what I needed

Thank you for this great video. You save me alot of money and time.

Super easy straight to the point video bro! 👊🏾 about to order this part asap and try

Greatness man... thanks a lot for these vids 😎

Good info. Gonna give this a try

I really hope this is my issue. I’ll be back if not 😂. Thank you so much. I really don’t want to consider a new refrigerator. Appreciate this video.

Awesome! well explained! Thanks!

Thanks for sharing!!!

I found your video very helpful. My start relay seems to be fine. The problem with mine is both sides of my double door warm's up and it will cool and freeze on the freezer side and cool on the fridge side without warning. How do I know when to give up on this fridge. Manufacture date 08/09

Congratulations on 6k subs!

Thanks👍✨✨It Work The lights were Blinking and Compressor not Working turn Off Breakers for 10 minutes It Work thanks

Good looking out

Matt, a question, my start relay had some heat burn marks around it, would that mean its faulty ? Ive been having probs with my fridge freezer, the fridge thermostat wasnt working as it should even though i replaced it with the correct thermostat. Any advice appreciated on what to try next, should i get a relay. Thanks

Thank you sir !

Also another question, where does the long thin metal capillary tube on the thermostat attach to in the fridge as its hidden from view once inserted ?

Do you know how to get air flow to improve from both the fridge and freezer vents? My compressor and fan both run fine (I have a 2006 Whirlpool side-by-side) but the fridge side vent only releases a very small amount of cool air, even on setting 4 or 5. The freezer air flow is stronger but still not consistently keeping food frozen. I just replaced the thermostat/temperature control with the assistance of another DIY video, thinking that was the issue but the situation didn't improve. Any suggestions are appreciated.

Matt, I have a Frigidaire top freezer fridge. My fridge temp is normal but the top freezer is too cold.. rock hard ice cream. I’ve found the small temp slider but it was frozen so I put a little hot water to loosen it. I then put the lever all the way down. It is still too cold. When I back in to check the lever, it was frozen again. Hope u can help! Remember, the fridge is good.

Matt thank you

Awesome job well explained in detail saved a lot from hiring a technician to changed the part

That's exactly how mine is acting... Thank you

Hello Matt....so love this easy to understand video...is there a way to tell if the jazz board is bad as well? I am about to take the relay switch off...but was wondering if that doesnt work or if it is fine...could the jazz board be the issue and is there a way to tell if it is functioning properly. All parts in back seem to be working, fans, lights, etc...but freezer and fridge are not cooling at all...totally warm...I've tried all the reset ideas, nothing has worked...now I am going to try this....thanks

Matt do u know what would be causing a whirlpool refrigerator the freezer is fine nut the refrigerator on top won't go past 5q degrees & it making a buzzing sound? Thx

Is it a start relay issue if the freezer is working just fine, but the other compartment is not cooling?

Thanks

FYI, I have a Whirlpool too, but it was not that issue that was the problem. It turns out it has a slow leak in the system. In California the tech won't try recharging the system. Basically, they recommend sending it out to the landfill, they won't fix it. Total waste of resources, everything is being made to last a few years now. I've had several talks with the local refrigeration technicians, they say most of the newer friges fail, due to plumbing not electronics: pin hole leaks, expansion crack etc.

would that also make the freezer not work that start relay

Omg I’m tempted to remove mine right now at 11p and see if that’s my problem so I can order the part I pray this the issue I do not want to spend too much on this fridge

Hi - we can't get the plastic cover off the case that protect the start relay. ANY ADVICE? We tried brut force!!

Can that circuit be checked?

my side by side started to go crazy, wouldn't keep a constant tempurature.. Replaced the Refrigerator Evaporator Motor it improved but still not 100%... we also changed the Chest Freezer Run Capacitor but it made the refrigerator worse so we put the old one back in... improved but not working right... during moving to another home it dropped about 1 foot, nothing major... now the freezer is the temp of the refrigerator, and the refrigerator is a bit cold but cannot trust... We need this refrigerator to last a little bit longer till we can afford to replace... Thank You....

Matt my name is Cindy I replaced the relay switch Ido hear it humming but not sure bout it cooling plz help

Hey my refrigerator is weird I was pulling it out to check it out from the back since it hasn’t be cooling and it turned on magically. What could it be

I can't find the part on Amazon can you post a link or a part number

Mine is not coming off for anything I have the same little black tab to pull up it won't budge just wiggly. Any advice?

My compressor just hot. Freezer working but top shleves warm. I dont understand shouldi worry?

My part # is 1108190, and I can’t seem to find it, would you know if there is another # that is the same as mine?

It's very important to keep your appliances at the proper temperatures. Keep the refrigerator temperature at or below 40° F (4° C). The freezer temperature should be 0° F (-18° C). Check temperatures periodically. If the temperatures aren't kept at the proper settings the more chance Listeria, a bacterium that causes foodborne illness, can grow, especially if the refrigerator temperature is above the safe temperature. Thermometers are the best way of knowing these temperatures and are generally inexpensive.

My refrigerator is 48* and freezer is 22* so too warm. Could this be the problem for me? Thanks

Was the compressor hot or cold?

Would this be the cause if my freezer is cooling, but it seems constantly but the refrigerator portion isn't getting cold, and I've already tried cleaning any ice that could be blocking.. so in other words, freezer is still blowing cold, but constantly and fridge is not cooling.

Recharging tube getting oil from it wat would be the reason and not cooling compressor getting hot

how do i clean coils under refidgerator

How do you clean the coils

What if I don’t hear it clicking? What else could it be?

💖

Mine is doing that too but the fan shuts off when it click? My compressor is hot as well. Can you help? My fridge isn't even that old. Manufactured in 2019 bought in 2020 sat in storage a few months. Been using it almost 2 years now. I'm a single mother, I can't afford to buy a new refrigerator. If you could help, that'd be GREATLY appreciated ☺️

Mine as 4 prongs can’t find it, it’s only on the one side at the bottom 2 white and 2 black.

My compressor is running I can hear it. But my fridge is not that cold. I cleaned the coils, and fan is running fine underneath. I’m not sure what else could be wrong. Any ideas?

Could this be the cause if my fridge is not getting cold but my freezer is working fine?

Ok now do a video about loud squeaky washing machine. 😎

When my refrigerator is plugged into the electrical outlet behind the fridge, the fridge starts up, runs a few minutes and then the compressor shuts down. I change plugs on the same outlet, same thing. I take an extension cord and plug the fridge into an outlet in another room in the house, and the refrigerator works fine. I tried going to the electrical box and resetting the power and the outlet behind the fridge worked about 15 minutes and then the condenser shut down. Why would the fridge work fine using another electrical outlet in the house? Thank you.

Looks I have a board and no relay

So your frig was not cooling at all right

I've replaced the start relay twice in the past three years. These cheap Amazon ones are garbage and don't last. The OEM lasted 20 years.

Watched this took mine off and it was rattling so I ordered a new one New one had same noise

When I took back panel off, the fan isn't even running

Looks like i ll be trashing mine

Well i believe i calked a professional but somtimes in my country people believe in suckering the poor people because my fridge is still not working he came back and say that the fridge needs to cool off and putting more water into the pan and then now he wants more mone when i told him its still not working so how about that
