    It's more than just this relay. The compressor oil is very cheap and degrades after a few years - depends how hard the compressor has to work. As oil wears down, compressor too wears down and take longer too cool down, so overheats even more.. and wears down even faster. It's designed to fail after 3-5 years, depends how often you open door or put fresh items to be frozen

    Great tutorial on fixing Haier deep freezer. I ordered the relay Friday on Amazon and it was delivered this morning plus it took me less than two minutes to swap it out and now our freezer run like brand new. Oh, the relay was less than $30 considering the arm & leg an electrician would have charged ❤️❤️❤️💯💯💯

    Sounds like my problem, which just corrected itself. Our freezer was jam-packed with too much meat and other packages. It made it difficult to close. The freezer itself was not getting cold and the icemaker motor was grinding.. I emptied out the freezer and put everything in the garage. I then set the freezer on 0 degrees. A few hours late,r the freezer was getting cold again and the icemaker was fine. I think that overload unit did exactly what it was supposed to do.

    I think this is the problem with mine. 5 cubic feet Hisense brand and 15 months old. The compressor gets super hot. It starts for about 5 seconds and turns off for 4 minutes and does that cycle constantly. I unplugged the thing and considered it dead. Since it's dead anyways, I might as well try to fix it myself, I mean, it can't be more broken than it is.

    • @TryThisDIYFix

    Sounds like your relay was OK but the overload protector did it's job as a glorified fuse and had to be replaced. Logically that would be the first step in this situation, before investing in the more expensive relay assembly. Good to know it is there, so thank you.

      This is exactly what I want to replace first since I’m not familiar with continuity testing the whole relay. If the protector did its job I’m replacing it. BUT WHERE CAN I GET JUST THAT PIGTAIL? Cannibalize one off a similar device?

  • @WestSydeMedia1
    @WestSydeMedia1 11 дней назад +1

    Thanks for the video! I got the relay and it was a direct replacement to the old relay, but the male connector for the overload protector you shared seems to be too wide to fit into the female connector for the relay assy. The overload protector I took out definitely has a narrower male connector and is labeled T0377/05. I can't seem to find an overload protector with a narrower male connector anywhere, and both the relay and overload protector were ordered through the links you provided. I'm wondering if the overload protector has changed from the seller since you made this video, otherwise everyone else who ordered from those links would've had the same issue.

House is 1940s, damp proof possibly black tar witch cracks over the years.
      Now when the house heating goes on then off on the night there is warmth in the kitchen but outside the temp has dropped dramatically, as the boiler area is like a trap for heat and the floor being freezing condensation is quickly produced, enough so it causes water to run along the grooves of the tiles and goes under freezer as well.
      I also notice on the freezer underneath panel it looked slightly wet as well, as if moisture is gathering on the underneath of the freezer,
      Now I know why no water does not land in try its the condensation from floor, but could this be heat from the freezer drifting towards the pantry area floor causing the amount of condensation or would you think its heat from kitchen getting trapped in pantry,
      So, you were correct, my misses said it never happened a few days ago only a tiny tiny amount, this must have been when the weather was less cold or less heating on that day.

    I'm not sure but I think I have the opposite issue here. My upgright freezer (on a frost free freezer) over freezes the coils and then nothing stays cool. and everything starts melting. I've replaced the thermostat but from what i've read it can be the heating element or this Defrost timer that's in the back of the freezer. Your thoughts sir? FYI, everytime I replace the Defrost thermostat it works for about 2 to three months then the same thing happens again.

The tech got it started and said it was a FAULTY , computer chip board . Its been running fine now for a whole week . The appliance company CALLED ME AND said its not worth fixing and gave me a refund . It was going to take 2 weeks for the part to come in .

Continuity on that is good. Continuity on the white relay is unknown as he doesn’t tell us what posts and what readings to deal with.
