WR62X79 General Electric Refrigerator Run Capacitor

Refrigerator Run Capacitor Overview

GE's product range includes brands like Hotpoint, General Electric, and Sears-Kenmore. The GE Run Capacitor serves as a direct replacement part specifically designed for GE refrigerators. This component, which features a 12 uF tolerance, is essential for initiating and maintaining the efficient operation of the refrigerator's compressor. A functional run capacitor is crucial as it aids in powering the compressor, which in turn ensures that the refrigerator operates effectively. Without an operational capacitor, the compressor fails to activate, leading to a refrigerator that does not cool, potentially causing food to spoil.

Potential issues with a failing run capacitor may manifest as the refrigerator struggling to maintain a consistent temperature, producing unusual noises, or experiencing electrical disturbances. This genuine GE part is compatible with appliances from Hotpoint, RCA, and Kenmore/Sears as well.
