How to Troubleshoot & Replace Lg AP5950081 / EAU61524007 Fan Motor

Fixed the freezer. We replaced the Condenser Fan Motor. 

Went on to AppliancePartsPros.com & searched their documentation for the Kenmore Elite 795 series fan. Found the fan motor & a video on how to replace. Noticed that others ordered a motor assembly with their fan motor. Also noticed the associated parts videos showed one fan in the freezer and others showed two. So ordered both parts to be safe, knowing I could return the other part. I was able to follow the associated video step by step except for the ice maker, which was blocking the removal of the rear wall. It took me an hour to figure out how to remove it without breaking it. Also had to remove the upper rails in my model (freezer compartment underneath) to remove the back wall. Removing the wall was tough the cooling fins were loaded with ice. Had to defrost them with a hair dryer to even unplug the temp sensor and fan. Turned out my model only had the fan motor (no motor assembly needed). After moving the panel to the repair area, I found a large chuck of ice inside that was probably hitting the fan blades and caused the noise - the fan looked and sounded fine. But I replaced the fan motor anyway since I did not want to have to go through the process again if it was the source. Buttoned everything up and the fridge is silent again. Happy with the part & the support via the video. I had even purchased a copy of the service manual to learn how to dissemble the freezer but would have never succeeded without the video. 

Replaced fan motor and blade Cleaned all the ice built up. Everything wrks great and frig cools better 

The key to this repair is letting the freezer section completely defrost before changing the ice maker fan. There will be ice build-up, so before buying the part. Try unplugging the fridge and letting all of the ice melt then plug it back in. 

Replaced both the fan Motor and the Motor assembly . Since I was taking it apart it only made sense to replace both motors and blades. I watched the video online before attempting the repair. After viewing the video , the repair was rather simple. It took approximately 45 minutes to complete. Now everything is quite and working properly. Thanks Appliance Parts Pros. 

Watched video on site. Ordered part. When fan motor arrived I generally followed video instructions. I did not need to remove the drawer mechanism from the freezer cabinet. Removed back panel, replaced the fan. Reassembled everything. Error code went away and everything now works properly. Noticed that the freezer bin had been installed backward. This blocked airflow to fans and coil creating icing conditions.
