Whirlpool WP10097202 Refrigerator Start Device
Product Description
The Whirlpool WP10097202 is a critical component of your refrigerator, specifically the compressor start relay. This apparatus functions as a switch, providing the first surge of power required to start the compressor motor. The start relay, which is close to the compressor, keeps an eye on the voltage and current. The relay senses a dip in pressure and transmits a spike in power to activate the motor when the compressor has to cycle on. The relay turns off the high current when the motor achieves operating speed, enabling the compressor to function effectively. Your refrigerator may struggle to keep its cool or may not start at all if the start relay isn't working properly.
