Amana Refrigerator GRH220-1D Noisy

This evaporator fan motor drives airflow across the evaporator coils and circulates chilled air throughout the cabinet. Replacing a weak or noisy motor restores proper air circulation, helping stabilize temperatures and overall cooling performance.

• Circulates air across the evaporator and distributes it between the freezer and fresh-food sections
• Helps maintain even temperatures and consistent cooling
• Common symptoms: fan not running or intermittent, loud humming/squealing/rattling from the freezer area
• Presents as weak airflow from vents or a warm refrigerator section while the freezer seems colder

• Disconnect power before servicing to avoid electrical shock
• Access the motor behind the rear freezer panel; remove shelves/bins and panel as needed
• Transfer the existing fan blade, bracket, grommets, and wiring connectors from the old motor if required
• Match wire orientation, secure the motor, ensure the blade spins freely and blows the correct direction before reassembly
