Refrigerator Not Cooling? GE Compressor Kit WG03F00133 – Fix No Cooling & Warm Fridge Fast
If your GE refrigerator is running but not cooling, or the compressor is not starting, a failed compressor is the most common cause. In most GE-built refrigerators, the compressor is the heart of the sealed cooling system — it pressurizes refrigerant to drive the cooling cycle. When it fails, the unit runs continuously with no temperature drop, or the compressor clicks on and off without starting, leaving food warm and at risk. ⚡ Most expensive and most critical single-point failure in GE refrigerators. Part WG03F00133 is the genuine OEM compressor kit that restores full cooling performance and gets your refrigerator back to safe operating temperature.
❓ Is This the Right Part?
This is the correct fix if ALL of the following are true:
- ✔ Refrigerator powers on — interior light works and fans run
- ✔ Condenser coils have been cleaned and are not blocked
- ✔ Start relay has been tested and confirmed functional (or replaced)
- ✔ Compressor hums, clicks off, or does not start at all
- ✔ ONLY problem is no cooling or insufficient cooling throughout the unit

🔧 Common Symptoms
- Refrigerator runs continuously but does not cool — both fridge and freezer warm
- Compressor clicks on then immediately shuts off (overload protection tripping)
- Compressor hums loudly but does not start
- No sound from compressor at all — unit completely silent
- Freezer partially freezes but fridge section stays warm
- Unit runs for hours with no temperature change on either side
✔ If these symptoms match, the compressor is the most likely failed component in the system.
✔ In most cases, replacing this compressor kit restores full cooling performance immediately after installation and refrigerant recharge.

⚠️ Recommended While Repairing:
Compressor replacement requires evacuating and recharging the sealed refrigerant system — this must be performed by a licensed HVAC/R technician with EPA 608 certification. While the system is open, replace the filter-drier (also called the dryer or accumulator) to prevent moisture contamination of the new compressor. Skipping the drier replacement is the #1 cause of premature compressor failure after a sealed-system repair.

⚙️ Installation
Skill Level: ADVANCED — Professional installation required. Disconnect power and allow the unit to warm to room temperature before beginning. Compressor replacement involves cutting and brazing refrigerant lines, evacuating the sealed system with a vacuum pump, and recharging with the correct refrigerant type and weight. This work requires EPA 608 certification and specialized equipment. Do not attempt without proper training and tools.

💡 Pro Tip
Test the Start Relay Before Ordering a Compressor:
The start relay (a small plug-in component on the compressor side terminal) is a $15–25 part that causes identical symptoms to a failed compressor — clicking, no-start, or no cooling. Shake the relay: if it rattles, it’s failed. Replace the relay first and run the unit for 24 hours before committing to a compressor replacement. A working compressor with a bad relay is a $20 fix, not a $900 fix.
