Product Description

The run capacitor is attached to the compressor in your refrigerator and is used to maintain a constant temperature in your freezer. It does this by cycling the compressor on and off. This run capacitor is a genuine OEM replacement part that is 120 volts and 15 MFD, which is used to determine the capacity of the capacitor. You may need to replace this part if the temperature in your fridge or freezer is too warm. Before beginning this repair please be sure to disconnect the power supply to your fridge.

My freezer section is too warm but the fridge is too cold. Have to use minimum setting to stop fridge from freezing eggs, but then the freezer does not properly freeze. Seems that the distribution of cold air is not correct. Could this be a damper stuck open?
For model number FFHT1514TW4

Hi Peter, thank you for reaching out. We would recommend checking the door gasket first. If it is fine, the issue is most probably with the evaporator fan motor, part number FIX11775575. You may need to replace it to fix the issue. We hope this sorts out your problem!

Freezer quit working after power outage
Tried to get the Appliance store to accept me dropping off freezer, they would not. Only way to repair was $90 arrival fee, plus troubleshooting and parts. Probably $300+ job. I looked at back of freezer and saw there are only probably 3 things that could go wrong. With internet help, I decided it was probably the Run-Capacitor and or Compressor controller. So I ordered both. Unplugged the old one, plugged in the new one, and for $50 I got my nearly new freezer working again. Thanks!

Defrost Timer require more triming than showed on Parts Select to fit my bracket
I followed installation video. My freezer defrost timer required a lot of triming to fit my bracket, but it worked great. My advise to repair is replace all 4 items at once to save time and money for freight.
