Replacement fan guide that directs airflow from the refrigerator fan to improve cooling distribution and help keep the fan blade clear of nearby components. Restores proper airflow and can reduce rubbing or scraping noises. What it does:
- Channels airflow from the fan to promote even temperatures throughout the compartment.
- Keeps the fan blade aligned and away from cabinet walls and other components.
- Commonly replaced when cracked, warped, or broken parts cause rubbing or unusual fan noise.
- Helps maintain efficient cooling by restoring the intended airflow path.
What's included: One fan guide. Install notes:
- Disconnect power (unplug or shut off breaker) before servicing the appliance.
- Access typically requires removing the interior cover or rear evaporator cover.
- Handle the plastic guide carefully to avoid cracking; align mounting tabs and secure using the original fasteners.
- Inspect the fan blade and motor for damage while replacing the guide; replace any damaged components to avoid repeat issues.
