The Evaporator Fan Motor is an OEM part for LG refrigerators. It is located in the freezer compartment, near the evaporator coil. It works to circulate cold air throughout the refrigerator, ensuring efficient cooling and proper temperature distribution.
Causes of a faulty evaporator fan motor can include regular wear and tear, electrical malfunctions, or physical damage. These factors can result in issues such as insufficient cooling, improper temperature regulation, or unusual noises coming from the refrigerator.
Symptoms of a bad evaporator fan motor may include:
- Inadequate cooling performance in the refrigerator compartment
- Freezer section cooling properly while the refrigerator remains warm
- Unusual noises, such as grinding or rattling, coming from the appliance
This OEM LG part can also be used on Kenmore/Sears appliances.

Getting ff error evaporator fan would run just a short time after resetting pwr Jack T. • Athens , GA • December 21, 2014
