Refrigerator and Freezer Capacitor.

LG products, including those branded as Sears-Kenmore, often use an OEM run capacitor. This component, situated near the compressor within the appliance's cooling system, plays a crucial role. It stores electrical energy and boosts the motor during startup, promoting smooth and effective performance. Additionally, the capacitor aids in maintaining necessary power levels, stabilizing voltage, and ensuring the compressor operates correctly.

A faulty run capacitor might arise from several issues such as electrical problems, natural wear and tear, or damage from power surges. These issues can lead to the compressor failing to start, the appliance not cooling adequately, or the emergence of unusual noises.

Signs of a defective run capacitor include:

- The compressor struggling to start or starting with a delay.
- Insufficient cooling performance.
- Odd sounds like buzzing or clicking.

This specific LG part is also compatible with Kenmore/Sears appliances.
