WHIRLPOOL WP61006295 Overload
Description
The Whirlpool WP61006295 Overload is a genuine OEM compressor overload protector used in many Whirlpool‑family refrigerators. This safety component works with the start relay to protect the compressor from overheating or drawing excessive current. When temperatures or electrical load rise beyond safe limits, the overload opens the circuit to prevent compressor damage. Once conditions return to normal, it resets and allows the compressor to restart.
A failing overload can cause symptoms such as clicking sounds, the compressor not starting, warm refrigerator temperatures, or intermittent cooling. Replacing it with the WP61006295 restores proper compressor protection and helps ensure reliable cooling performance.
Built with durable internal contacts and heat‑sensitive components, this overload is engineered for long‑term operation in high‑heat, high‑load environments.
