Review on Upgrade Your Refrigerator With BlueStars' W10613606 Compressor Start Relay And Capacitor - Perfect Replacement For Whirlpool, KitchenAid, And Kenmore Models. by Haji Anderson

Revainrating 1 out of 5

does not work on Maytag model MFI2568AEB12

Refrigerator was not cooling, ice in ice dispenser melted. Cooling coils clean, both fans and water dispenser work.Compressor warm to touch, no vibration, no clicking of relay, no noise from compressor. Replaced relay and capacitor with above kit. Fits compressor pins and wire harness, but does not fit with retaining clip of my compressor. This part just clicked when refrigerator was plugged in. Called Sears repair. Spent $182 to hear maybe compressor is bad and other issues may have caused its failure on the 14 yr old refrigerator. Installed a Supco 3'n 1 starter, p/n RCO410 for 1/4 and 1/3 hp compressors. Refrigerator works fine now. So Sears repair was ineffective. The W10613606 did not work. I bought a used relay off ebay with the same number, 12946001, as my old one, reused the capacitor, and took off the RCO410 tool. Now I can use the original retaining clip for the relay and capacitor. The 14 yr old refrigerator has been working great. I can not say that all the websites that offer a W10613606 kit for a Maytag MFI2568AEB12 refrigerator are wrong, or that the kit I received was not defective, but it did not fit the retainer clip, and it did not work.

Pros
  • With its durable construction, this compressor start relay and capacitor ensures a long-lasting performance, therefore, reducing the need for frequent repairs or replacements
Cons
  • The product may not improve the temperature control of the refrigerator
