Klixons & Fans

Jul 26, 2007 2 Replies

So I have two 50pint/day dehumidifiers. Both failed in the same way. The cooling fan seized, the exaporator iced over & the compressor stalled. The Klixon overload soon comitted suicide.



I'm looking for surplus stores with Klixon overloads. I find one size at Electronicsurplus, but the existing one has a non-Klixon pn# [as well as FSP 1167004] that I can't cross, so I'm just guessing if it will work.



I can buy the correct Klixon from appliance parts houses for a mere $40 or so. Gee, thanks...



[They are labeled "Comfort-aire" D50A2 & full of FSP part #'s. The 800 254-1301 on the case goes to Whirlpool's No-Help Call Center where they deny having anything to do with it...]
