Description

This fan motor circulates air inside the refrigerator to help maintain even cooling and consistent temperatures. Replacing a worn or failed fan motor restores airflow for proper cooling performance. What it does:

• Powers the refrigerator fan blade to move air across the evaporator/condenser coils
• Helps prevent warm spots and reduces excessive frost buildup caused by poor airflow
• Eliminates grinding, whining, or intermittent fan operation when motor bearings fail
• Supports compressor efficiency by maintaining proper airflow through the cooling system

What's included:

• One fan motor

Install notes:

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair
• Access varies by model; motor may be behind an evaporator cover, rear panel, or under a kickplate
• Handle fan blades and evaporator fins carefully to avoid damage or cuts
• Verify fan blade is seated correctly and spins freely before reassembling; test operation after reinstall
