Customer Questions and Answers for Condenser Fan Motor (Refrigerator, Dc) by Lg

Keep your refrigerator cooling reliably. This DC condenser fan motor drives the rear fan that moves air across the condenser coils and compressor, helping the unit shed heat so fresh food and freezer temperatures stay stable.

• Circulates air through the condenser to dissipate heat
• Supports proper cooling performance and helps protect the compressor from overheating
• Common symptoms: fan not running or intermittent, loud grinding/squealing, warm temperatures, hot compressor area or cabinet sides
• May run noisy before failing or cause the fridge to run longer than normal

• Disconnect power and pull the refrigerator out for rear access
• Remove the lower rear access panel to reach the fan area near the compressor
• Note connector orientation; transfer the fan blade and any grommets/bracket from the old motor if applicable
• Ensure the blade spins freely and wires are clear before restoring power and reassembling
