Frigidaire Starter 241941005 OEM Part

The compressor start device plays an essential role in the functionality of refrigerators from Frigidaire, Electrolux, and Sears-Kenmore. Strategically positioned on the side or rear of the appliance, it connects directly to the compressor. Its primary role is to deliver an electrical boost required to initiate the compressor motor when the refrigerator is activated. This process guarantees that the compressor operates smoothly and effectively, ensuring stable temperatures in both the refrigerator and freezer compartments. By temporarily elevating the electrical current, the start device facilitates the commencement of the compressor motor's movement.

This specific Frigidaire component is also suited for Electrolux, Frigidaire, Gibson, Kelvinator, Westinghouse, and Sears/Kenmore appliances.

Key issues resolved by this start device include:

- Inadequate cooling or complete lack of cooling
- Audible clicking or buzzing noises
- Frequent or prolonged compressor activity
- Compressor overheating
- Diminished energy efficiency and increased electricity usage
