Repair frigidaire refrigerator relay

[gekahelf]

Hi,
I have a Frigidaire Gallery refrigerator. Model #: GLHS38EESB0. A few days ago, it stopped cooling. Digital control unit inside showed room temperature. We called a technician in. He identified and replaced a starting relay. Plastic looks a bit melted.

My question is can this part be found and bought anywhere, tags below? I was charged $250 for repair. Relay is smaller than a tennis ball.

There is more, I can't figure out if it's all one piece or another component.

I don't know about "anywhere" but anyone that sells Frigidaire appliance parts could supply it. One example is linked below.

Service rates vary by area and company

It does sound toward the high end of the scale but depends on the area you live in and the going rates there, whom you called and how they bill for service.

Frigidaire refrigerator

Unfortuantely in todays world pricing is line. Better check that the condenser coils on bottom or back are clean and that the frig has the required air clearances at back, sides and top for proper removal of heat. Found in user manual or online site.
