Kitchenaid Refrigerator Motor

The Evaporator Fan Motor is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators. This part circulates air over the evaporator coils and throughout the refrigerator and freezer compartments to help maintain consistent temperatures and ensure efficient cooling performance.

Causes of a bad fan motor can include general wear and tear, electrical issues, or physical damage from obstructions or debris. 

Symptoms of a bad evaporator fan motor include:

• Refrigerator or freezer not cooling properly
• Unusual noises coming from the refrigerator
• Frost buildup on the evaporator coils
• Inconsistent temperatures within the compartments

This OEM Whirlpool part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper and some Kenmore models.

This condenser fan motor spins the fan that moves air across the condenser coils and around the compressor. Replacing a weak or seized motor restores proper heat removal so the cooling system can maintain stable temperatures and run efficiently.

• Drives the condenser fan to move airflow through the condenser section
• Helps dissipate heat from the refrigeration system and cool the compressor
• Failure may present as the condenser fan not running
• May also cause warm temperatures, longer run times, or loud scraping/whirring noises near the rear or bottom of the unit
• Can contribute to the compressor running hot

• Disconnect power before servicing; use gloves to protect from sharp edges
• Access the condenser area; install the new motor in the same orientation as the original
• Transfer the existing fan blade, bracket, and grommets if required; keep wiring clear of the blade
• Restore power and verify fan operation with the system running

This evaporator fan motor spins the freezer fan to move air across the evaporator coils and circulate it through both compartments. Replacing a weak or failed motor restores proper airflow for consistent temperatures and reliable cooling performance.

• Circulates cold air from the evaporator throughout the freezer and fresh-food sections
• Helps maintain even temperatures and stable cabinet conditions
• Common symptoms: no fan sound or airflow in the freezer, refrigerator warming while freezer may stay colder, intermittent starting/stalling, or squealing/grinding from the fan area
• Supports temperature recovery after door openings by maintaining airflow

• Unplug the refrigerator before servicing
• Access from the freezer: remove shelves/ice bin and the rear panel to reach the motor
• Transfer the fan blade and mounting hardware in the same orientation; avoid damaging evaporator fins or wiring
• When testing, hold the freezer door switch closed—the fan runs only with the switch engaged

This evaporator fan motor spins the internal fan that moves air across the evaporator and throughout the refrigerator. Replace a weak, noisy, or stalled motor to restore proper airflow, consistent temperatures, and quieter operation.

• Circulates air over the evaporator coils and through the vents to cool the compartments
• Helps maintain even, stable temperatures throughout the cabinet
• Common failure symptoms: little or no airflow from vents, warming in the fresh food section, intermittent or loud fan noise, or the fan not running

• Disconnect power before servicing; wear cut-resistant gloves.
• Access the motor behind the interior rear panel near the evaporator; use care around sharp fins and wiring.
• Unplug the wire harness; transfer the existing fan blade and mounting hardware to the new motor as needed. Ensure correct blade orientation and free rotation.
• After reassembly, depress the door switch to verify the fan runs before replacing shelves and contents.

The Fan Motor is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators. Located inside the fresh food or freezer compartments, it circulates cold air evenly throughout interior shelves and bins.  

Symptoms of a bad fan motor include:

• Erratic temperature fluctuations within sections
• Frost or ice buildup in areas further from vents
• Muffled or grinding noises emanating from inside walls

Causes can be normal wear over many years of operation, failure of electronic speed controls, or accumulated debris inhibiting smooth fan rotation.

This Whirlpool OEM replacement will restore the air circulation needed to maintain consistent temperatures. It is also compatible with Maytag, Jenn-Air, Amana, KitchenAid, and some GE side-by-side models for a seamless repair that prolongs your refrigerator's performance. 

This evaporator fan motor circulates cold air across the evaporator and throughout the compartments for even cooling. Replacing a worn motor restores proper airflow, temperature consistency, and overall defrost performance.

• Circulates air over the evaporator coils and through the vents to cool both compartments
• Helps maintain stable temperatures and supports effective defrost
• Failure symptoms include weak/no airflow, warming in one or both sections, frost buildup on the evaporator cover, or loud/intermittent fan noise
• Motor may start or may run intermittently, causing long run times

• Disconnect power before servicing; internal panels and fan blades can be sharp
• Access the motor behind the freezer's rear panel; remove shelves/ice maker as needed
• Transfer the original fan blade and any mounts/grommets to the new motor; match blade orientation
• Route wiring as original, secure the motor, and ensure the fan spins freely before reassembly

Instruction sheet included.

This evaporator fan motor assembly circulates cold air across the evaporator coil and through the refrigerator and freezer. Replacing a failing motor restores steady airflow for consistent temperatures, faster cooling recovery, and quieter, reliable operation.

• Circulates air across the evaporator and through vents to cool both compartments
• Helps maintain even temperatures and proper defrost/airflow
• Replace if you notice weak or no airflow from vents and rising refrigerator temps
• Addresses noisy, intermittent, or non-running fan from the freezer area
• Can contribute to frost buildup on the evaporator cover when airflow is lost

• Disconnect power before service; use gloves to protect against sharp edges
• Access is typically behind the freezer's rear panel; remove shelves/bins as needed
• Note wire harness orientation; transfer any screws, grommets, or brackets from the original as required
• After reassembly, restore power and ensure smooth fan operation and airflow from vents

Evaporator fan that circulates cold air through the refrigerator to help maintain even temperatures and reduce frost build-up. Replacing a failed fan restores airflow so the appliance cools more consistently. What it does:

• Circulates cold air across evaporator coils and interior compartments to help maintain set temperatures.
• Helps prevent localized frost buildup by keeping air moving over the evaporator.
• A worn or failed fan may make whining or rattling noises or run intermittently.
• Loss of fan operation can cause warm spots or reduced cooling performance.

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing to avoid shock or injury.
• Access may require removing interior panels or evaporator cover—keep fasteners in a safe place.
• Handle sharp sheet-metal edges carefully and support the fan assembly to avoid dropping it.

Replacement evaporator fan motor designed for the freezer evaporator assembly to restore airflow and help maintain consistent cold temperatures. Use this motor when the original stops running, hums without spinning, or makes unusual noise. What it does:

• Circulates cold air over the evaporator coil so the freezer and refrigerator sections cool evenly.
• Helps prevent frost buildup that can occur when airflow is reduced or stops.
• Common symptoms: freezer warming, reduced cooling, loud humming/clicking, or a motor that won't spin.
• Operates as the airflow source for the evaporator compartment in many Whirlpool refrigerators.
