Gene has much to be proud of

Remove the cover on the back of the fridge and look at the compressor start device (on the left side of the compressor).

If it looks like a white cube - remove it and shake it. If it makes a rustling sound then the start device is bad.

Whirlpool redesign this part and it looks different but it comes with the complete installation instructions.

- The part number for the star device kit is AP3873993

Here are the break down diagrams for the Whirlpool refrigerator Model ED25PEXHT02

Hi Gene, It did rattle, and I just replaced it.... the fan ran for about 45 seconds and the compressor started to get cold, then the whole system just seemed to shut down, the lights work ok, but the fan isn't even kicking on now... any ideas, or is it just junk?
