Is This the Right Part?

✅ Cross Reference Information

Common Symptoms

• Weak or absent airflow from the refrigerator air outlets.
• Evaporator-fan noise, rubbing, or failure to operate.
• Frost or ice accumulation around the evaporator cover that restricts airflow.
• Fresh-food compartment temperature imbalance or inadequate cooling.
• Air leakage or poor airflow caused by damaged or improperly sealing cover surfaces.

Check Before Replacing

• With the refrigerator unplugged, visually inspect the evaporator-cover assembly for cracks, distortion, damaged sealing surfaces, or blocked air passages.
• After safely removing accessible interior obstructions, check for abnormal frost or ice around the evaporator and cover; do not chip ice from the evaporator or force the cover loose.
• With power restored only after all panels and connections are safely reinstalled, verify whether the evaporator fan operates during the appliance's normal cooling cycle or approved service diagnostics.
• If the fan does not operate, inspect for physical obstruction and, where service access permits, check the fan wiring and connector before condemning the cover assembly.
• Because evaporator icing and poor cooling can have multiple causes, use the refrigerator's model-specific technical documentation before replacing this assembly.
