Is This the Right Part?

Common Symptoms

• Freezer not freezing properly
• Refrigerator or freezer not cooling adequately
• Refrigerator compartment warm while the freezer is affected by poor airflow
• Unusual humming, buzzing, or grinding from the freezer area
• Refrigerator runs longer than normal
• Frost or ice buildup associated with inadequate evaporator airflow

Check Before Replacing

• Unplug the refrigerator before inspection.
• With power disconnected, visually check whether ice or another obstruction is preventing the fan blade from moving.
• With power disconnected, gently verify that the fan blade turns freely; do not force it.
• Inspect the motor wire harness and connectors for visible damage, loose connections, or corrosion.
• If appropriate for the appliance and technician, check motor-winding continuity with a multimeter while the refrigerator remains unplugged; lack of continuity indicates an electrical fault, but other refrigerator faults can produce similar symptoms.
