Common Symptoms
- Refrigerator or freezer temperatures rise while the compressor operates
- Condenser fan is not running during an operating or service-diagnostic check
- Abnormal fan noise, rubbing, or intermittent operation near the lower rear machine compartment
- Compressor area becomes unusually warm when condenser airflow is inadequate
Check Before Replacing
- With the refrigerator connected to power and operating normally, observe whether the condenser fan runs when the compressor is operating; avoid touching moving parts.
- Use the appliance's model-specific service-diagnostic procedure, if available, to command or check condenser-fan operation.
- With power disconnected, visually inspect the fan blade and surrounding area for obstruction, debris, or signs of rubbing.
- With power disconnected, inspect the motor wiring harness and connector for looseness, visible damage, or corrosion.
- Do not assume the motor is defective solely from a cooling complaint; verify airflow, wiring, controls, and compressor operation as applicable.
Pro Tip
A fan blade that is not fully seated on the motor shaft can reduce airflow; confirm correct blade seating after installation where the appliance service documentation specifies this check.

Installation Notes
- Disconnect electrical power before servicing and replace all panels before operating the refrigerator.
- Access is typically through the lower rear machine compartment, but the exact access method is model-specific.
- On applicable Whirlpool service designs, the condenser-fan assembly is removed from the machine compartment, the wiring harness is disconnected, and the fan blade is separated from the motor shaft before motor replacement.
- Reconnect the wiring harness securely and ensure the fan blade is fully seated and clear of surrounding components before restoring power.
- Do not puncture refrigerant tubing or use mechanical devices to defrost a refrigerator containing flammable refrigerant; follow the appliance-specific service documentation.
