Kenmore / Sears Refrigerator Motor

Fix a refrigerator that's not cooling properly or running constantly with a new condenser fan motor. This part helps dissipate heat from the system.

Refrigerator not cooling properly? This DC brushless motor ensures quiet, efficient operation for your side-by-side fridge. Moderate DIY repair.

This is the evaporator fan motor assembly that circulates cold air from the evaporator coils throughout the fresh food and freezer compartments. It includes the fan motor and its mounting bracket. Replace this assembly if the refrigerator is not cooling properly, the freezer works but the fresh food section is warm, or you no longer hear the fan running when the door is closed.

This DC motor drives the evaporator fan that circulates cold air from the evaporator coils throughout the refrigerator and freezer compartments. It is essential for maintaining even, consistent temperatures inside the unit. Replace this motor if the refrigerator is not cooling properly, the freezer is cold but the fresh food section is warm, or you hear unusual buzzing or grinding noises coming from behind the interior back panel.

Fix a refrigerator that won't dispense ice with a new auger motor. Typical repair takes 30 minutes with basic tools. Video instructions available.

Ice dispenser not working? This ice auger motor drives ice from the bin to the chute. Easy 15-minute DIY fix with our step-by-step video guide.

This is a scroll-type fan motor assembly that includes the motor and its housing. It circulates air through the fresh food compartment of the refrigerator to maintain even cooling temperatures. Replace this assembly if the fan is noisy, not spinning, or if the fresh food section is warmer than normal while the freezer still works properly.

Refrigerator running hot or not cooling? A failed condenser fan motor prevents heat removal from the compressor. DIY repair in under an hour.

This is the motor that drives the auger inside the ice dispenser chute of a refrigerator. It rotates the auger to push ice from the storage bin through the dispenser opening when the lever or button is activated. Replace this motor if ice is not dispensing, you hear a humming sound but the auger doesn't turn, or the dispenser motor has stopped working entirely.

Refrigerator warm but freezer cold? This evaporator fan motor restores air circulation between compartments. Common 30-minute DIY fix for temperature issues.

This fan assembly circulates air through the appliance so coils and internal components operate at the proper temperature. Replacing a failed or noisy fan can restore airflow and help prevent performance issues caused by weak circulation.

• Moves air across coils and components to support designed cooling/dehumidifying performance
• Helps maintain steady airflow to reduce overheating or icing conditions
• A failing fan can cause little to no airflow even when the unit is running
• Common symptoms: fan not spinning, intermittent operation, loud rattling/grinding, vibration, or thermal shutdown

• Disconnect power before servicing to avoid electrical shock or injury
• Access the fan area per your unit's service information; remove panels/shrouds as needed
• Note wire connections and mounting order; transfer any brackets, grommets, or hardware from the old assembly
• After installation, ensure the fan spins freely and clears all shrouds, then test operation before reassembly

Freezer not cooling or ice buildup? This freezer fan motor assembly restores proper airflow and cooling. Moderate DIY repair for side-by-side units.

Refrigerator not cooling properly? A failed condenser fan motor prevents heat removal from the coils. DIY-friendly repair, typically 15-20 minutes to install.

This condenser fan motor is located near the compressor at the back or bottom of the refrigerator. It circulates air over the condenser coils to dissipate heat and keep the refrigerator cooling efficiently. Replace this motor if the refrigerator is running warm, the compressor is overheating, or you no longer hear the fan running when the compressor is on.
