Daryl September 08, 2019 Evap fan motor voltage test: Red 12V Yellow 12V blue 4v not sure if the blue should have voltage on it or not since its a feedback. pulled the controller and noticed a burnt spot so probably the board but want to make sure the blue wire voltage is faulty.
1 Answer Daryl, We would need the model number to look up any info on the unit in question. Please post another question with all your info included thank you. Read More...
Jeff June 06, 2019 for Model Number FGUB2642LF8 I checked and it has voltage. We replaced it but the fan comes on then it goes off but it doesn't stay on. It isn't freezing up so I'm thinking something else is wrong.
Marc April 11, 2019 for Model Number Fghb2866pf6 My Frigidaire gallery fridge keeps giving a 5y EF code. I have replaced the fan motor in the middle of Jan. and it started giving the same code again so I replaced the main control panel and thermostat in the middle of Feb. Worked fine for two weeks. I replaced the fan motor again yesterday but keep getting the same error code and thoughts? I was think the main board could be bad but everything else is working and I hear the compressor kick on then the error code appears. Thanks for the help.
1 Answer Marc, you will want to test the voltage going to the fan motor by testing connection J4B pin 5 with the red probe of a meter to connection J4A pin 13 for 12 vdc. If 12vdc is there, then you will want to go to the fan and test the red wire with the red probe to the brown wire with the black probe and test for 12vdc. If the fan is not rotating and is receiving 12vdc, then the fan has failed. However, you may want to check the resistance of the windings of your compressor. You can check each pin to the others and the resistance should all be the same, if not then you may have a bad compressor that could be drawing too many amps causing other issues with components using dc voltage.

Red January 02, 2019 for Model Number fghn2844lf8 I have power on red wire 12v good ground on brown nothing on yellow or blue on the plug in the frig that go to evap fan motor and test the motor and it will run if I put power on red wire and ground brown then put a jumper wire from red to yellow
1 Answer Red, coming off of the refrigerator control, at the J4 pins, you should have 12 volts DC at the J4B-5 to the J4A-13, if voltage is there and the motor does not run, replace the motor, if no voltage, replace the control. Read More...
Rc November 09, 2018 for Model Number Missing I recently noticed that the evap fan motor was twitching. Replaced the fan (241509402) and the same thing was happening. So I replaced the main CCU (241996323 / 241996357) and the same thing is happening. The model and serial number have been removed. Any ideas?
1 Answer Rc, Without that model number, we cannot pull a wiring schematic to properly diagnose the issue. Maybe check the user manual it might have been recorded in there. Sorry. Read More...
Kyle November 02, 2018 for Model Number Frigidaire Gallery Fridge My Freezer keeps cooling, but the refrigerator does not. I found out my Evaporator Fan Motor was not turning, so I ordered a new Evaporator Fan Motor and replaced it. Same problem. The fan is not turning, yet the freezer still works (Compressor, coils, etc all work just fine). Is this a wiring issue? Do I need a new board?
1 Answer Hello Kyle, I'm sorry but we will need to ask you to post a new question including the model number from your units' I.D. tag so we can pull the wiring diagram and advise of the proper test points and voltages to test for at those points for a proper diagnosis. Thank you for your patience and understanding in this matter. Read More...
Mike July 30, 2018 for Model Number FGUN2642LF3 My refrigerator has an error code Sy ef. I looked it up and it said evaporator fan motor. Both compartments are warm. When I went to remove the fan, it was not working. How can I test the fan motor with a multimeter to see if its good or not? What wires should I test? There are 4 colors Brown, red, yellow, blue. Thank you
1 Answer Hello Mike, You can test from the brown with a white trace to the red with a white trace. There should be 12Vdc present from one wire to the other or you can test from pins J4B-5 to J4A-13 for the 12Vdc. If the voltage is there, the fan motor has failed. If the voltage is not there, the board 5303918502 is the issue. Read More...
Sohnibanu S. July 10, 2018 for Model Number FGUB2642LF8 My refrigerator is not cooling at all. It says SY EF error code on display . I repalced the control board and it was working well for 24 hrs and showing agian the same error. Fan is working i can hear it running but fridge doesn’t cool at all. Both upper and lower part of the fridge is warm.
1 Answer Hello Sohnibanu, You will need to check the evaporator fan motor for the fresh food side as per the tech sheet for the model provided. Read More...
Hayden March 26, 2018 for Model Number Panasonic udqt22wp1 fan How do you get the fan to turn on without the fridge?
1 Answer Hello Hayden. The fan is only designed to turn on with the fridge on. Not when the fridge is off. Thank you. Read More...
Tim February 03, 2018 for Model Number FRS26H7CSB2 There were 12 volts coming into the board, but only 1.2 coming through the ribbon to the outer board, that seems to low as the water & ice will not work. Is 1.2 too low?
1 Answer Hello Tim, This is probably about right considering the voltage drops involved. You should check for a proper ground and check for wiring harness damage and proper connections at the door hinge connector. There is most likely another issue causing the failure. Read More...
