Refrigerator Compressor Start Relay

This is an OEM compressor start relay (also referred to as a controller) used in Electrolux, Frigidaire, and associated-brand refrigerators. It provides the initial electrical impulse needed to start the compressor motor and ensures stable operation during use.

Key Features

• Supplies a controlled electrical boost (phase shift) to assist the compressor during startup and maintain steady running under load.

• Encased in a compact module with secure electrical terminals and thermally stable housing.

• Uses durable dielectric materials and internal contacts designed to handle frequent cycling and voltage stress.

• Designed to match original OEM voltage, current, and timing characteristics for reliable compressor operation.

• Fits many Electrolux, Frigidaire, Kenmore, White-Westinghouse, Gibson, and affiliated refrigerators; replaces older numbers such as 297259502 and 297259510.

• Always confirm compatibility by matching this relay to your refrigerator’s model number before purchasing.
