How to replace Condenser Fan Motor. I watched the video of how to repair the fridge with the motor I ordered. It was very helpful to know what I was getting into. It was a little cumbersome because you have to lay down and reach in behind and loosen things up. I test fit the screws in the motor as I realize they are not threaded in the motor. I went ahead and tighten the screws all the way up prior to installing The motor which made it way easier than trying to tap the screws once the motor was under the refrigerator and in the tight area. After that it was very straightforward, I bolted it in after installing the fan on the motor. I pluggged the connector back on the motor and away she went. It is working fantastic now that the motor has been replaced. Do-It-Yourself Rating: Repair Time Estimate: 15-30 minutes
