The Motor is an OEM component specifically designed for LG refrigerators. It houses the evaporator fan motor located inside the refrigerator housing.
This evaporator fan motor circulates cool air within the refrigerator compartment, ensuring consistent temperatures are maintained. It actively distributes cold air produced by the refrigeration system throughout all shelves and drawers inside the refrigerator.
Causes of a bad evaporator motor can include normal wear and tear over time, failures in the motor's electronic components, or damage from impact or water damage.
Symptoms of a bad evaporator motor include:
- Inconsistencies in interior temperatures
- Warm or cool spots developing on refrigerator shelves
- Abnormal noises coming from inside refrigerator walls
- The fan motor fails to start or run intermittently
Replacing the evaporator motor with this genuine LG OEM part restores proper air circulation. It is also compatible with Sears/Kenmore refrigerator models.
