Easy repair, great part. Though shipping was not as fast as expected.
It was a quite an easy repair, though I had to wait two days after placing my order with next day delivery to receive the part. We were out of a fridge until it came in.

freezer not cold, buzzing noise followed by a click then nothing from compressor, repeats every few minutes
Replaced the start relay, simple unplug old start relay and plug in of new one. Use care unplugging old one as it has 3 pins from the compressor that plugs into it and it must be carefully pryed loose with a flat screwdriver under it to prevent breaking one of them.

Compresser would not kick in, it would click on and off.
Unplugged the starter from compresser and put the new part in and all worked. Great service and I like the OEM parts not aftermarket. Will definately do service with you again. Thanks for making my life easier.
