. Replacing Compressor Relay & Overload Procedure
Note:
Begin with the unit unplugged, water drained and the refrigeration system removed from the
cabinet.
Tip: Use a small flathead screwdriver to pry wire connectors and relay from compressor.
1. Remove the relay/overload cover by prying the metal clip to unhook it from the compressor on
both sides (fig.1-1 and 1-2).
2. Carefully remove and identify the wire connectors from the relay (white wires) and/or overload
(black wire) (fig.2-1 and 2-2). Remove relay and overload from compressor (fig.2-3 and 2-4).
3. Install the new overload onto the top pin of the compressor (fig.3-1) and push the new relay onto
the
two bottom pins below the overload (fig.3-2). Reconnect the white wires onto the relay (fig.3-3)
and the black wire onto the overload (fig.3-4).
4. Reinstall the cover and secure with the metal clip (fig.4-1 and 4-2). Note: use caution not to
damage wires.
