4387535 – Genuine OEM Whirlpool Refrigerator Relay & Overload Kit

The 4387535 is a Genuine OEM Whirlpool refrigerator compressor start device kit designed to help start and protect your refrigerator compressor during normal cooling operation. This kit combines both the compressor start relay and overload protector, which work together to safely energize the compressor while protecting it from overheating and electrical overload conditions.

Manufactured to Whirlpool’s original factory specifications, the 4387535 relay and overload kit is designed for select Whirlpool-built refrigerators and compatible brands including Whirlpool, KitchenAid, Kenmore, Maytag, Amana, Roper, Estate, Crosley, and Inglis. It is a common solution for refrigerators that will not start, click repeatedly, or fail to cool properly due to compressor start device failure. Available from Appliance Kingdom with fast Canada-wide shipping.


What Does the 4387535 Relay & Overload Kit Do?

The compressor relay provides the electrical boost required to start the refrigerator compressor, while the overload protector prevents compressor damage by shutting power off if excessive heat or electrical current is detected.

Together, these components help ensure:

  • Reliable compressor start-up

  • Proper refrigerator cooling performance

  • Protection against overheating damage

  • Stable refrigeration cycles

  • Reduced compressor stress and wear

Because this kit directly affects compressor operation, OEM precision is essential. Incorrect or low-quality aftermarket relay kits may cause hard starts, repeated cycling, or compressor failure.


Why OEM Quality Matters

The compressor is the heart of your refrigerator cooling system. A poorly matched relay or overload can:

  • Cause compressor short cycling

  • Prevent proper compressor start-up

  • Lead to overheating

  • Trigger repeated clicking noises

  • Increase compressor wear

  • Result in expensive sealed-system failure

The Genuine OEM 4387535 ensures correct electrical resistance, thermal protection, and compressor compatibility for safe long-term operation.


Common Symptoms Indicating Replacement

A failing relay and overload kit often causes:

  • Refrigerator not cooling

  • Compressor clicking repeatedly

  • Refrigerator lights work but unit stays warm

  • Compressor attempts to start then shuts off

  • Clicking sound every few minutes

  • Warm fridge and freezer compartments

  • Compressor overheating

  • Refrigerator cycles abnormally

If your compressor tests good but the start device has failed, replacing the 4387535 kit often restores cooling performance. This is one of the most common fixes for “fridge won’t start” issues in Whirlpool-built refrigerators.


Compatibility Guidance

The 4387535 is designed for Whirlpool-family refrigerators.

Before ordering:

  • Locate your complete refrigerator model number

  • Verify compatibility with your appliance

  • Contact Appliance Kingdom for fit confirmation if needed

The appliance model number is usually found inside the refrigerator compartment on the side wall or frame.
