This condenser fan blade restores the airflow that carries heat away from the condenser coils and compressor. Replacing a cracked, warped, or loose blade helps your refrigerator remove heat properly so it cools reliably and runs more quietly. What it does

• Draws room air through the condenser coil and over the compressor to dissipate heat
• Helps maintain stable cabinet temperatures and overall cooling performance
• Typical failure symptoms: fan not spinning or moving enough air, wobbling or rattling from the rear base, weak cooling, compressor running hot

• 1 condenser fan blade

• Unplug the refrigerator and remove the rear lower access panel before servicing
• Note the blade's orientation; pull the old blade straight off the motor shaft and press the new blade on until fully seated
• Ensure proper clearance in the shroud and spin by hand to confirm it turns freely
• Wear gloves and eye protection; keep hands clear of the blade during testing

This rear roller is a replacement for the rollers in a refrigerator. The rollers are not used often, but they have an important purpose. They make it easier to move the refrigerator from one area to another. If the roller had been damaged and is not working properly, it will be difficult to maneuver the refrigerator. Replacing the damaged roller with a new one before moving the refrigerator a long distance is a good idea.The rollers on the refrigerator are meant to handle a lot of pressure. However, they can still wear down and break eventually. They could also be damaged during a previous move. Before replacing the rear roller, unplug the refrigerator and remove the connection to the water supply. The replacement will require only a few tools, such as a screwdriver. It may require moving other parts of the refrigerator to get access to the rear rollers.The rear roller will work for certain models of refrigerators from Whirlpool, GE, KitchenAid, Inglis, Maytag, Admiral, International, Amana, Jenn-Air, Crosley, and Magic Chef. This is a genuine OEM replacement part that is sold individually.

The Motor-Condenser Fan is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators. This motor drives the condenser fan, which is essential for cooling the compressor and expelling heat from the refrigerator. By maintaining optimal temperatures within the cooling system, it ensures the efficient operation of the refrigerator.

Over time, the motor-condenser fan can fail due to electrical issues, wear and tear, or exposure to dust and debris. A malfunctioning fan motor can lead to overheating and reduced cooling efficiency.

Symptoms of a bad motor-condenser fan include:

• The refrigerator running continuously or not cooling properly
• Unusual noises from the back of the refrigerator
• The compressor overheating
• Poor airflow around the condenser coils

This OEM part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.

The Compressor is an OEM component specifically designed for Whirlpool refrigerators. Located inside the refrigerator cabinet, the compressor circulates refrigerant throughout the cooling system, regulating temperatures inside food compartments. Its efficient operation is crucial to food freshness and refrigerator function.

Symptoms of a bad compressor include: 

• Elevated interior temperatures unable to be maintained  
• Louder than normal buzzing or humming sounds coming from inside
• Frost or ice building up in areas where it typically would not  
• Refrigerator lights repeatedly cycling on and off

Causes of compressor failure involve normal wear of internal parts over time, loss of refrigerant allowing components to overwork, or disruption in the flow and pressure of circulating coolant. 

This OEM Whirlpool part is compatible with Maytag, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore refrigerator models.
