OVERLOAD

The overload identified as part 18-8853-22 is a replacement component used during equipment repairs. It is commonly ordered when a machine still has power available but a specific circuit, movement, or cooling function is no longer working correctly. Before purchase, compare the machine brand and the removed part markings to avoid ordering a visually similar but incorrect item. Model verification is important because close machine variants may use different revisions of the same component category. Protects and resets the compressor circuit when overheating or overload conditions cause shutdown and restart problems. A failing part in this category may cause symptoms like restarts after cooling, hot shutdowns, and compressor trips. An overload protector issue may appear as shutdown after heating and restart only after the system cools down. For this overload protector category, the typical repair goal is to restore the function that the failed component was affecting. In troubleshooting, matching the part number and checking the related wiring, mounting points, and operating conditions helps avoid repeat repairs. Overload diagnosis often includes checking compressor amperage, terminal condition, and ventilation issues that may trigger thermal trips. If the machine has a history of intermittent faults, reviewing recent service notes can help confirm whether this component is the primary failure. Installing the correct replacement part can resolve the targeted fault path and helps bring the machine back to stable operation when the diagnosis is accurate. The best results come from matching the part number to the machine and replacing it only after the failure has been confirmed. Symptoms such as not turning on, no power, not cooling, not starting, intermittent operation, error code faults, or ice not dropping may point to this part category, but technicians should verify the complete failure path to make the repair stick.
