Takashi K Olean , NY November 22, 2019 One night suddenly the strange sound happened from the frig The frig seems to be made in 1997. The motor was almost stuck. The compressor and heat pipe were very hot with no heat exchange. Fortunately, the outside temperature (and the temperature in the kitchen) was low, so I decided to cool it naturally until it reached the motor. (1) Open the back panel. (2) Remove the motor power connector. (3) Loosen the three bolts and remove the motor. (4) Remove the plate nut attached to the motor shaft and attach the fan to the new motor in the same orientation. (5) Install the motor and tighten the bolts. (6) Turn on the frig and check that the motor works. Since the fan touched the frame a little and the sound was generated, adjust it so that no sound comes out. I think the fans were bent. (7) Close the back panel. Do-It-Yourself Rating: Repair Time Estimate: Less than 15 minutes
