4387913 – Genuine OEM Whirlpool Refrigerator Relay & Overload Kit
The 4387913 is a Genuine OEM Whirlpool refrigerator compressor start device designed to help power and protect your refrigerator’s compressor during startup and operation. This essential refrigerator component combines both the start relay and overload protector into one service kit, helping ensure proper compressor function and protecting against overheating or electrical overload conditions. Verified by Whirlpool OEM parts documentation and trusted appliance parts suppliers, this kit is designed for reliable replacement performance in compatible Whirlpool-built refrigerators.
If your refrigerator is clicking repeatedly, failing to cool, or the compressor is struggling to start, replacing the 4387913 relay and overload kit often resolves these common compressor startup failures.
Available from Appliance Kingdom with fast Canada-wide shipping for homeowners, landlords, and professional appliance repair technicians.
What Does the 4387913 Relay & Overload Kit Do?
The relay and overload kit is a critical electrical component attached directly to the refrigerator compressor.
It performs two important functions:
-
Start Relay: Supplies the compressor with the electrical boost required to start
-
Overload Protector: Prevents compressor overheating and electrical damage by interrupting power if unsafe operating conditions occur
OEM precision matters because improper relay timing, incorrect electrical resistance, or poor-quality materials can cause hard starts, repeated shutdowns, compressor damage, or complete cooling failure.
Using the genuine Whirlpool 4387913 kit ensures:
-
Proper compressor startup performance
-
Safe overload protection
-
Reliable refrigerator cooling operation
-
Protection against premature compressor wear
-
Correct electrical specifications for Whirlpool-built refrigeration systems
Common Symptoms Indicating Replacement
A failing relay and overload kit often causes noticeable refrigerator cooling problems.
Common symptoms include:
-
Refrigerator not cooling
-
Freezer section warming up
-
Clicking sound every few minutes
-
Compressor tries to start but shuts off
-
Refrigerator cycles repeatedly without cooling
-
Compressor overheats
-
Interior lights work but cooling system does not start
If the compressor itself tests good, replacing the 4387913 relay and overload kit frequently restores normal cooling performance. Appliance repair discussions and field reports consistently identify this part as a common fix for “clicking but not cooling” Whirlpool refrigerator failures.
