Is This the Right Part?

✅ Cross Reference Information

Common Symptoms

• Unusually noisy or grinding evaporator-fan operation
• Poor cooling or refrigerator too warm
• Freezer not freezing properly
• Frost or ice buildup associated with inadequate air circulation

Check Before Replacing

• With the refrigerator unplugged, verify that the evaporator-fan blade turns freely by hand without binding.
• Listen for abnormal grinding, growling, or whining from the freezer evaporator-fan area.
• If the motor does not operate, have a qualified technician test the motor windings for continuity and verify that the refrigerator is supplying the correct power; a no-run condition does not by itself prove the motor is defective.
• Check whether ice or an obstruction is preventing the fan blade from turning before condemning the motor.
