YGDZ 1PCS QP2-4R7 4.7 Ohm 1-Pin Black Refrigerator PTC Starter Relay Review

Our mini fridge stopped working when it was only a few years old. We bought this with a shot in the dark what could it be and thinking about the price we lost. We changed the relay and restarted the fridge and it worked perfectly. It was so cold that the drinks started to freeze. Fast forward 3 weeks after installation and the fridge isn't working again. I'm disappointed that it didn't last more than just 3 weeks.

This relay fixed my Vinotemp VT-27ts wine fridge. I was afraid I would need an overload relay as well, much more difficult to find the right overload relay and much more expensive a lower wattage version for adequate overload protection on a small wine fridge. Luckily that wasn't the case, that starter relay was all I needed. It was the same as the original but with an "R" on the part number. I read somewhere that R is suitable to replace the non-R version if it is 4.7 ohms.

Great, solid my Edgestar wine cooler. If you have a wine fridge that has stopped working and your fridge uses refrigerant (with a black tank) instead of a smaller fridge with a refrigeration unit, this can help. There is a great video online showing how to replace a part. It took about 5 minutes. If your old one is defective, you will hear a click when you turn on the device. Also, as the video suggests, if you take the old part off and shake it, you'll hear a rattling noise, which means it's…

Our kitchen beverage cooler was bought in 2011 when we were renovating the kitchen and died 3 days ago. The lights and power were on, but the machine was completely silent. These 3.3-cubic-foot Danby chillers are hermetic compressor systems that cost about $250 and are intended to be used only once after a failure. Well this starter relay took 5 minutes to install and bring the unit back to life. After 30 minutes the cooler was at 48 degrees and kept falling. Saved us at least $250 that we…

The compressor on my AS43U6 outdoor fridge did not turn on. It clicked and drew 800 watts for 12 seconds, then turned off, then turned on again. The old PTC made no noise when shaken, but I opened it up and saw the conductor was cracked and burned. Installed this cheap thing and started working and saved me over $1000. I hope it lasts. You can measure the resistance of your compressor to make sure the compressor is fine. For example, C (top pin) to S (bottom right pin) should be 10 ohms, and C…
