Whirlpool W11736651 Motor Capacitor

Product Description

The WHIRLPOOL W11736651 is a motor-run capacitor designed for use in Whirlpool home appliances. Motor capacitors store and release electrical energy to start and sustain motor operation, providing the phase shift needed to keep single-phase motors running efficiently. This component is an OEM Whirlpool part and is typically serviced by appliance repair technicians during motor-related diagnostics and replacements. It is a direct replacement for failed or degraded capacitors that cause motors to run hot, hum without starting, or fail to operate altogether.

This capacitor is intended for residential appliance applications where Whirlpool-sourced motor components are required. Typical install scenarios include appliance motor assemblies found in laundry, refrigeration, or other Whirlpool home appliance platforms. Because the raw part title references a motor capacitor, this part is most relevant to technicians servicing Whirlpool equipment requiring an OEM-spec capacitor replacement.

Key Features

• OEM Whirlpool replacement part — direct factory-spec fit
• Supports motor starting and continuous run operation in single-phase motor assemblies
• Sourced directly from Whirlpool parts inventory for assured compatibility
• Addresses common motor faults including failure to start and overheating

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement motor capacitor for Whirlpool home appliances requiring part number W11736651. Consult the appliance model and wiring diagram to confirm fitment before installation.

Installation Notes

Capacitor replacement should be performed by a qualified appliance technician. Disconnect and lock out power to the appliance before accessing any electrical components. Capacitors can retain a charge even after power is removed — discharge the capacitor safely using an appropriate resistor tool before handling. Verify the replacement capacitor matches the original microfarad rating and voltage rating before installing.
