Product review (5 stars): It Worked!
Our Kenmore (model #10653242300) fridge quit on Monday and today it is working again! Everything had melted and we were afraid a new refrigerator would be needed. I decided to google our problem and came across a few pages with solutions. Once I found that the start device had gone bad (it rattled just like the post said), we then looked for the part. It was more expensive thru Sears direct. We saved approximately $25 buying it thru amazon. It did come with many pieces we didn't need. Our fridge only needed one part. It was super easy to take apart and install. We had family who just called a repairman to fix their fridge last week and were charged $100 just for the labor. The labor was more than the part. Replacing this part is as easy as plugging in your refrigerator.
