When it fails, the compressor either clicks repeatedly and shuts off, hums briefly then stops, or doesn't run at all — and your fridge warms up fast. Left unaddressed, a failed relay forces the compressor to attempt repeated hard starts, which shortens compressor life significantly.

A rattle or loose internal component is a confirmed failure — order the replacement. If it doesn’t rattle, the relay may still be electrically open — test with a multimeter across the terminals (should read near 0Ω when cold). Also check the overload protector on the same compressor terminal block — a failed overload mimics relay symptoms and is often replaced at the same time to avoid a second service call.\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSkill Level:\u003c\/strong\u003e Beginner — no tools required\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAlways unplug the refrigerator\u003c\/strong\u003e before accessing the compressor\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThe start relay is located at the bottom rear of the unit, plugged into the compressor terminal block\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePull the old relay straight off — note orientation before removing\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eShake the old relay: a rattle confirms internal failure\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePlug in the new WR01F00355 in the same orientation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRestore power and listen for the compressor to start within 2–5 minutes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAllow 24 hours for the fridge to reach full operating temperature before declaring success\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCompatible Models\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGDRC3KBYARBB, GDRC3KBYARWW, GDRC3KBYCRBB, GDRC3KBYCRWW, GDRS3KBYARSS, GDRS3KBYCRSS, GDRS3KBYJRSS, GDSC3KCYC, GLM25WGTN, GSE26GGECCBB, GSHS6HGDECSS, GSHS6KGZDCSS, GSLT6AEDDFGP, GSMT6AEDCFGP, GSMT6AEDDFGP, GSMT6AEDFFGP, GSMT6AEFAFES, GSMT6AEFAFSP, GSMT6AEFBFSP, GSRC5KLZBFWW, GSRS5KLZEFSS, GZS23HSECFSS, IOM23WGZD, IOMS5PGFBFSS, IOMS5PGFCFSS, PDRF2MBXBRWW, PFRS2MJXB, PFSS2MIXA, PFSS2MIXB, PIM23LGTP, PSE26KSEFESS, PSLN3FFBBFBN, PSLS3FFBBFSF, PSMN3FFBBFBN, PSMS3FFBBFSF, PSMS3FGFBFSL, PSMS3KEFBFSS, PSMS3KEFCFSS, PSMS5PGFBFSF, PSMS5PGFCFSF, PSMS5PGGBFSS, PSMS5PGGCFSS, PSMS6FGFAFES, PSMS6FGFBFSS, PSMS6FGFCFSS, PSMS6PGGACSS, TDRF3KCDARBB, TDRF3KCDARWW, TDRY3KCDALSS, TDRY3KCDARSS, VDRY3KCDALSS, ZFMB26DRN\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e✓ Model-Specific Repair Pages\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"model-link-grid\"\u003e\n  \u003ca href=\"\/pages\/parts-list\" style=\"display:inline-block;border:1px solid #cc0000;border-radius:20px;padding:5px 14px;font-size:13px;color:#cc0000;text-decoration:none;margin:4px;\"\u003eGE\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"GE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50291912671521,"sku":"WR01F00355","price":39.32,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0897\/7783\/2225\/files\/98689b335771ad91b403e99820a534956292788fe9eb2f1e09b5a1dd2ed6e166__18506_60712d20-dab4-46e5-bd91-019a66f16f50.jpg?v=1726504732","url":"https:\/\/xpartsupply.com\/products\/ge-refrigerator-start-relay-wr01f00355","provider":"XPart Supply Ltd.","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
