WR07X26748 - GE Refrigerator Start Relay

The Start Relay (WR07X26748) is a genuine part designed by GE, specifically for use in refrigerators. This part is sometimes referred to as a compressor start relay because of its role in the cooling process. It is compatible with a variety of GE branded refrigerators.

The start relay's primary function is to help the compressor, the heart of the refrigeration cycle, start and run efficiently. It achieves this by providing a boost of power to the compressor motor during startup, then disconnecting once the motor reaches operational speed. Please note, the specific location and function of the start relay might vary based on your refrigerator's model number.

If your refrigerator is not cooling properly or the compressor is not starting, it might be due to a faulty start relay. In such cases, replacing the start relay might be necessary.

Before purchasing this part, please ensure to verify the model number of your appliance for compatibility.
