Compressor Relay / Overload Protector Replacement
Note: Begin with the unit unplugged, the water drained and the left side panel removed.
Tip: Use a small flathead screwdriver to pry wire connectors and relay from compressor.
1. Remove the relay/overload cover by prying the metal clip to unhook it from the compressor on
both sides (Figure 6-8-1 and 6-8-2).
2. Carefully remove and identify the wire connectors from the relay (white wires) and/or overload
(black wire) (Figure 6-8-3 and 6-8-4). Remove relay and overload from compressor (Figure 6-8-5 and
6-8-6).
3. Install the new overload onto the top pin of the compressor (Figure 6-8-7) and push the new re-
lay onto the two bottom pins below the overload (Figure 6-8-8). Reconnect the white wires onto the
relay (Figure 6-8-9) and the black wire onto the overload (Figure 6-8-10).
4. Reinstall the cover and secure with the metal clip (Figure 6-8-11). Note: use caution not to damage
wires.
