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.
