    Refrigerator Compressor clicking - These correct OHM readings/

    Model Number: TRX22PP
    Brand: GE
    Age: More than 10 years

    Hello,

    I’m hoping anyone can help me find the right part. My refrigerator is GE
    (Model - TRX22PPDABS, Serial TZ291699).

    For the last few weeks I have noticed frozen water at the bottom of the
    freezer door. Today that ice is now water and it sounds like the compressor
    wont start. I can hear clicks from the compressor from trying to start
    every few minutes but it wont turn on. I have cleaned out the condenser
    coils, fan, and everything around the compressor. The previous owners of
    this house had replaced the defrost heater twice in last 10 years.

    So far I have tested the following with these results:

    Start Relay (part WR07X10099) With Ohms being set to the 200 level it reads
    with a continuity beep and 8.9 OHMS ( I believe this is only supposed to be
    about 5 Ohms)

    Overload for the relay: tested set to 200 Ohm level reads with continuity
    beep and 0.3 Ohms



    Defrost Heater “part WR51X10101” is a double element and one side is
    jumpered between the two elements. When I read the ohms at the “200”
    setting between the blue and pink terminals (one for each element) it reads
    26 ohms. When I remove the jumper between the elements and test the
    terminals at each end of a single element, the reading is 14.1 Ohms.

    I am hoping you could tell me if the readings I have are normal for these
    parts. If not, I would definitely like to place an order

    Thank you for any and all help

    The perusing got between the Run and Common, and the Start and Common pins ought to be inside . 5 ohm of one another. In the event that these readings are essentially extraordinary, the twisting with the altogether lower perusing has a go to-turn short and the blower should be supplanted.
