Product Description

If your refrigerator or freezer is too warm, or making noises, you may need to replace the fan blade. The fan blade attaches to the evaporator motor, which is in the freezer section, to help circulate the cold air into the refrigerator and freezer sections. The fan blade is white in color and made from plastic. This is a genuine OEM part. Please be sure to disconnect the power to your refrigerator before starting your repair.

I thought motor had gone out. The fan came off the spindle. One side is deeper and the other side is flush. which side do I put on the motor?

Evap fan motor became louder and louder. I assumed, we know what that means, motor going bad or out of balance.
If out of balance, I would need a fan motor, fan and fan grommet to stabilize the motor and fan. Once frozen food, shelf and baskets were removed, next task was to clean food particles on shelf brackets and floor of freezer. Followed Steve's video with no problems. Only slight problem was I needed to remove the light and bulb protector to be able to put the coil protector back in place without bending it. Entire job only took 30 minutes then another 15 to gather tools, then put them away. Motor is nice and quiet now. Outstanding instructional video. Thank you. Herb
