Whirlpool Refrigerator Motor

This evaporator fan motor drives the fan that circulates chilled air across the evaporator coils and through the cabinet, helping maintain even, stable temperatures and consistent cooling performance.

• Moves air across the evaporator coils and through the vents for uniform cooling
• Helps the refrigerator recover temperature after door openings
• Common symptoms of a failing motor: fresh food section warmer than the freezer, little or no airflow from vents, fan not running with the door switch pressed, or loud/abnormal fan noise
• Supports overall system efficiency by keeping air moving around stored items

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing
• Transfer and reuse the original fan blade, bracket, grommets, and screws if your model uses them
• Clear any frost or obstructions from the fan shroud and surrounding area before reassembly
• After reassembly, restore power and press the door switch to confirm the fan runs and airflow is present

The Condenser Fan Motor is an OEM part for Whirlpool brand bottom-mount refrigerators. This motor powers the condenser fan which dissipates heat from the refrigeration system coils, maintaining cool interior temperatures.

Causes of failure include normal bearing wear from continuous rotations, or buildup obstructing free blade movement. 

Symptoms of a faulty motor include:  

• Elevated interior temperatures and frost propagation issues   
• Extended run times and higher energy consumption
• Grinding or buzzing noises emanating from the refrigeration system area

This Whirlpool replacement restores efficient heat removal and preserves food freshness. Compatible with KitchenAid, Maytag, and some Kenmore models too, it prevents future repair bills.
 

The condenser fan motor is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators. It plays a vital role in circulating refrigerant through the condenser coils, facilitating heat exchange and maintaining the refrigerator's cooling efficiency.

Over time, the motor-condenser can wear out or fail due to electrical issues, mechanical wear, or blockages in the condenser system. A malfunctioning motor can compromise the refrigerator's cooling performance, leading to temperature fluctuations and increased energy consumption.

Symptoms of a bad Motor-Condenser include:

• The refrigerator not cooling properly
• Unusual noises coming from the back of the refrigerator
• The compressor running continuously
• Increased energy bills due to inefficient operation
• Overheating of the refrigerator

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

The Motor is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators. It drives the ice maker's mechanisms, enabling the production and dispensing of ice cubes.

Causes of a bad ice maker motor can include electrical faults, wear and tear from regular use, or damage from power surges.

Symptoms of a bad ice maker motor include:

• Ice maker not producing ice
• Unusual noises coming from the ice maker area
• Ice cubes not being ejected properly
• Motor not running at all

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

The Evaporator Motor is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators. This part circulates air over the evaporator coils, ensuring even cooling throughout the refrigerator and freezer compartments.

Causes of a bad evaporator motor can include wear and tear from prolonged use, electrical faults, or physical damage to the motor components.  

Symptoms of a bad evaporator motor include:

• Unusual noises coming from the refrigerator
• Inconsistent or insufficient cooling
• Frost buildup in the freezer
• Refrigerator running continuously or not running at all

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

The Ice Auger Motor is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators. This motor drives the ice auger, which moves ice from the ice bin to the dispenser chute. 

Causes of a bad ice auger motor can include electrical malfunctions, wear and tear from regular use, or damage due to ice jams or overloading.  

Symptoms of a bad ice auger motor include:

• The ice dispenser not dispensing ice
• Unusual noises or grinding sounds from the ice dispenser area
• The auger not turning or moving ice
• Intermittent or inconsistent ice dispensing

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

This motor capacitor helps the dryer motor start and keep running smoothly by providing the electrical boost the motor needs. Replacing a failing capacitor restores normal motor operation and reliable drying performance. What it does:

• Provides the start/run electrical boost required for the dryer motor to spin
• Helps prevent motor stalling, slow spin, or intermittent operation
• A failed capacitor can cause humming, no-start, or the drum not to turn
• Restoring the correct capacitor value protects the motor from stress and overheating

• Disconnect power to the appliance before service to avoid shock
• Discharge the capacitor safely before removing (use insulated tools and follow OEM guidance)
• Replace with the same part number/specification; secure terminals and mounting

This evaporator fan motor circulates cold air from the evaporator throughout the refrigerator, helping maintain even cooling and preventing frost buildup. Replaces a failed motor to restore proper airflow and temperature distribution. What it does:

• Spins the evaporator fan blade to move cold air across the evaporator and into the fresh-food and freezer compartments
• Helps prevent uneven temperatures and excessive frost on the evaporator
• Common symptoms: refrigerator or freezer running warm, reduced airflow, rattling or grinding noises, or a fan that doesn't run
• Works as the OEM motor for compatible Whirlpool refrigeration evaporator assemblies

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair.
• Access typically requires removing interior panels or evaporator cover; handle evaporator coils and insulation carefully to avoid damage.
• Verify the part number on your original motor before installation.
• If fan blade is damaged or excessively worn, replace it or the entire fan assembly as needed.
