Parts for Frigidaire FU018TRW1: 07 - Evaporator, Fan Assembly Parts

This part has been discontinued by the manufacturer and is no longer available.

The Evaporator Fan Blade is an OEM part for Frigidaire refrigerators, designed to circulate air over the refrigerator coils and through the food compartment. The fan blade works in conjunction with the evaporator fan motor, and together, they play a key role in the cooling process by distributing cool air evenly throughout the refrigerator and freezer.

Causes of a bad evaporator fan blade can include physical damage, such as cracks or bends in the blade itself, which can occur over time due to wear and tear or during cleaning and maintenance. 

Symptoms of a bad Evaporator Fan Blade include:

• Unusual noises coming from the refrigerator, such as humming or buzzing
• The refrigerator or freezer compartment is not cooling adequately

This OEM Frigidaire part can also be used on Electrolux, Frigidaire, Gibson, Kelvinator, Westinghouse, and Sears/Kenmore.

This defrost thermostat senses evaporator temperature and helps control the freezer's defrost heater so frost melts at the right time, protecting cooling efficiency and preventing excessive ice buildup. What it does

• Closes at cold temperatures to allow the defrost heater to run during a defrost cycle
• Opens when the evaporator warms to stop the heater and prevent overheating
• Commonly used when frost builds on the evaporator or defrost heater runs continuously
• Helps maintain proper defrost timing for consistent cooling performance

• Disconnect power to the appliance before accessing electrical components
• Mount and wire exactly as the original part;
• Replace any damaged clips, grommets, or harnesses for a secure fit and good thermal contact
