Can I replace the Whirlpool Refrigerator Compressor?

There are situations when the refrigerator works, but does not freeze well. If the compressor is running at the same time, the reasons may be a malfunction of the thermostat, a break or blockage of the pipeline, a refrigerant leak due to a depressurization of the freon system. In any case, diagnostics and identification of the cause of the malfunction can only be performed by a master of a certified service company. If the refrigerator stops cooling, there may be refrigerant leaking. The professional will find out the leak and add freon. If the efficiency of your appliance is still questionable, it is necessary to check the compressor. In case of performance loss, the compressor can’t create sufficient pressure for normal cooling. Replace if it is defected. Remove all items from the fridge if possible. Unplug the fridge from the wall outlet. Remove the ten screws from the rear panel. Remove the rear panel. Pull the power cord up while removing the rear panel. Once you remove the rear panel everything will usually be dusty. Use a vacuum or broom to remove the dust if necessary. Remove the clip from the top of the compressor start device. Remove the old compressor start device by unplugging it from the compressor. Put in the new compressor start device. Resemble your new compressor start device and make sure that it is secure. Connect your new compressor start device to the locking tab. Don’t hesitate to contact our customer support and replace all defective parts without troubles. Complex replacements or repairs are always best left up to the professionals.
