Westinghouse Freezer Heat Exchanger
PartSelect Number PS2332236
Manufacturer Part Number 297217900
This heat exchanger, also known as a suction or capillary tube, is an essential component of your refrigerator or freezer’s sealed system. It transfers heat from inside the appliance to the outside environment, helping maintain a consistent temperature for optimal food preservation. By carrying refrigerant between the condenser and evaporator, it ensures efficient cooling performance. A properly functioning heat exchanger improves energy efficiency and supports a longer appliance lifespan.

Copper lines leaking freon
Removed the inside evaporator coil to do inside solder job, use torch to heat solder joints on the outside drier in order to remove it and install new drier. Soldered Heat exchanger line to drier and 1/4” copper line to compressor. Wrapped with new insulation wrap. Pulled a vacuum on system and then charged with 4.4 ounces of 134a freon. Works like a champ again!

Westinghouse Freezer Compressor Kit
PartSelect Number PS2583042
Manufacturer Part Number 5304478809
This refrigerator compressor is a key component in the cooling system, responsible for compressing and circulating refrigerant gas throughout the appliance. It increases the pressure and temperature of the gas before sending it through the condenser coils, where heat is released and the gas condenses into a liquid. The refrigerant then travels to the evaporator, where it expands and evaporates, creating a cooling effect that is distributed throughout the refrigerator. A malfunctioning compressor can lead to poor cooling performance or complete system failure. Proper lubrication and cooling are essential for maintaining its efficiency and extending the life of your appliance.
Westinghouse Freezer Compressor Relay And Overload
Unplug all power from freezer. Remove Bail wire from controller capacitor unit and remove from compressor by pulling STRAIGHT from compressor body to avoid bending contacts.
Use a very small instrumentation screwdriver to release locking spade on yellow and white wires. To unlock slide screwdriver in slot along wire entry to controller body while gently pulling on wire. Note position of wires and replace on new unit in same position/order. Plug new run capacitor into new controller being careful to orient capacitor to proper position (hole matches guide on controller unit). Plug newly installed controller and capacitor into condensor and replace bail wire.
Make sure timer is not in defrost mode - manually advance timer if necessary to ensure timer is in run mode. Turn temperature control to coldest setting. Plug in and hopefully enjoy the humming noise of your newly repaired and operational compressor and freezer. Read more...
PartSelect Number PS8689570
Manufacturer Part Number 5304491584
This part is both the start relay and the overload. The start relay boosts the compressor, and then shuts off as soon as the motor gets up to speed and the overload provides extra protection against excessive temperatures.

Faulty Controller and Possibly Capacitor
After building a test box and determining the Controller was bad simply ordered parts and installed. Installation was a little difficult due to locking spades on electrical connections. Unplug all power from freezer. Remove Bail wire from controller capacitor unit and remove from compressor by pulling STRAIGHT from compressor body to avoid bending contacts.
Use a very small instrumentation screwdriver to release locking spade on yellow and white wires. To unlock slide screwdriver in slot along wire entry to controller body while gently pulling on wire. Note position of wires and replace on new unit in same position/order. Plug new run capacitor into new controller being careful to orient capacitor to proper position (hole matches guide on controller unit). Plug newly installed controller and capacitor into condensor and replace bail wire.

Westinghouse Freezer Compressor Kit
PartSelect Number PS11770703
Manufacturer Part Number 5304507765
Keep your refrigerator or freezer running efficiently with this complete compressor kit. The compressor serves as the heart of the cooling system, pressurizing and circulating refrigerant through the evaporator and condenser coils to maintain consistent internal temperatures. This kit includes all essential components for installation, such as the compressor, start relay, capacitor, filter drier, drain pan, tubing extensions, thermal mastic, and a label. Operating on 100–115 volts at 50/60 Hz and using R134A refrigerant, it’s designed for reliable performance. Replacing the compressor may resolve issues like the appliance not starting, inconsistent cooling, or unusual noises. For safety, always disconnect power before installation and follow proper handling guidelines.
