10644563600 Kenmore Refrigerator - Instructions

I read prior postings about how the compressor start relay was the most likely failed part based upon the periodic clicking as well as the rattle when the relay was shaken, with loose metal particles coming out of the original part. I ordered the replacement for next business day delivery and it arrived on schedule. The replacement kit comes with two relays for two different compressor designs. The correct relay is an exact replacement for the original, with the same part numbering. I removed the compressor start capacitor (a small black rectangular box with two metal terminals) from the original relay and installed it on the new part. The replacement kit comes with a black plastic cover, which did not fit since the start capacitor is in the way. I reinstalled the wire hook that secures the relay to the compressor body, and the refrigerator now works great.

I replaced broken fridge with a spare fridge; mean while I went online and did research and came across "Parts Select" which was extremely helpful with similiar situation and helpful guidance. $80 and fridge is as good as new.Thank you.

I'm a 65 year old widow on a limited SS income, so I needed to get my refrigerator fixed as cheaply as possible. Partselect's troubleshooting guides took me right to the problem. I ordered the part on a Friday and it arrived the next Tuesday. It probably took me a little longer than it would a repairman, but I did it myself with just a screwdriver and a nut driver and it only cost me $45 instead of the $200 plus it costs my daughter to have someone else replace hers two years ago. Always remember to unplug amy electrical device before removing the covers or attempting any repair. All I had to do was remove the lower back cover on the refrigerator and, using the partselect diagram, locate the casing that covered the start relay and the overload switch on the left side of the compressor. I popped the casing off with the screwdriver, pulled the relay off (it's sits on two prongs), and remove the red terminal wire from the relay. Installation of the new relay is the reverse steps of the removal. Thanks, Partselect! I will be doing business with you again if the need ever arises.

true story! ordered the part on sunday by e-mail.by tursday had'nt received it yet.so i called and they had no record of it. so i reordered it on the phone right then. the next day @ noon it came.i had my daughter take a picture of the part on the compressor so that it would be easire to put back together. i had'nt opened the new part yet because i wouldn't be able to retun it if it was opened.i took the old part off the compressor and the new part matched the old part. so i put it on ,it took less than a minute. started the refridgerator and the compressor started running. cooling off just fine and making ice.i am a happy customer!!

No repair needed, just replacement but I would like to say that you did a fantastic job getting it to me. I ordered the part at approximately 2PM and by noon the next day, it was at my front door. Thank you for shipping so quickly.
