Hotpoint Refrigerator Parts

This is the evaporator fan blade that mounts on the freezer fan motor. It circulates cold air across the evaporator coils and throughout the compartments to maintain even, reliable temperatures. What it does:

• Moves air across the evaporator to cool and circulate airflow between freezer and fresh food sections
• Helps prevent warm spots and temperature swings inside the refrigerator
• Common failure signs include rattling/scraping noises from the freezer area
• Needed if the fan isn't moving air, the blade is cracked/loose, or cooling is weak despite the compressor running

• 1 evaporator fan blade

• Disconnect power before servicing; wear cut-resistant gloves around sharp sheet metal
• Remove shelves/drawers and the rear freezer panel to access the fan
• Pull the old blade straight off the motor shaft; transfer any clip/retainer if present
• Press the new blade fully onto the shaft; it spins freely without contacting the shroud before reassembly
