Parts needed for old (70s?) fridge (nameplate in thread)

[Keigh]

I have an old fridge that I got from my parents and it’s still working fine, but when I went down to clean the coils, I noticed the connections at the compressor / start relay were discolored, and even part of the relay was broken off. It doesn’t look like an oem part and it looks like my dad frankenstein’d it at one point to get it working. Before I replace the relay like for like, is there any way to pull up info on the oem parts that this uses?

I included a picture of the nameplate, what’s left of the wiring diagram, the start relay currently being used, and a plug/capacitor (?) that I found tucked under the fridge that isn’t being used.

I pulled up that model (106.7615142) on the SearsPartsDirect website but it shows those oem parts are no longer available. But if the relay ever fails you could use an inexpensive universal start relay kit, like a Supco RO81 maybe, or a hard start kit that contains the relay and start capacitor should work. Not not sure if that unit uses a run capacitor or not. That old thing will probably run forever though.

Thanks for the info! That supco relay looks like it would be perfect. I’ll try it out. I would probably need to replace those wire terminals since my compressor has small round pins. Would you happen to know the name of what I need? I’m having trouble searching it

In forgot to add that this compressor only uses a start capacitor. There is no run capacitor

It may not look like it in the pics but those terminals on the relay kit as well on the hard start kits are designed to push right onto the round pins on the compressor. If they're a little loose, just squeeze them a tiny bit tighter before you push them onto the compressor terminals. Just make sure you get the Start, Run, and Common on the correct terminals.

I see pictures of 2 capacitors. The wiring diagram on the left shows a run capacitor. I can kinda see, in the schematic on the right, that there's a start winding.
