Key Features
- Optimal Heat Dissipation: Engineered to pull ambient room air across the hot condenser coils and the compressor, actively removing heat from the refrigerant to keep your refrigerator and freezer at food-safe temperatures.
- Thermal Overload Protection: Equipped with an internal safety switch that automatically cuts power to the motor if it becomes jammed by debris, preventing electrical shorts, melted wiring, or fire hazards.
- Factory 4-Pin Connection: Features a standard 4-pin male electrical terminal plug designed to mate perfectly with the original factory wiring harness for a seamless, wire-free installation.
- Sealed Bearing Construction: Built with high-quality, permanently lubricated bearings designed to withstand the dusty, lint-heavy environment of the bottom rear compressor compartment without seizing.
- OEM-Grade Specifications: Calibrated to exactly 115 Volts and 60Hz, ensuring the motor spins the fan blade at the precise RPM required for maximum airflow and cooling efficiency.

Compatibility & Fitment
This condenser fan motor is a universal replacement for a vast number of side-by-side and top-freezer refrigerators. Compatible brands include:
- Whirlpool
- Kenmore / Sears
- KitchenAid
- Maytag
- Roper
- Estate
- Amana
- Crosley
When to Replace
- Refrigerator is Too Warm: Both the freezer and the fresh food sections are struggling to maintain cold temperatures because the compressor is overheating and shutting down prematurely.
- Compressor is Constantly Running: If the fan dies, the compressor has to work overtime to try to cool the system, leading to a machine that never cycles off.
- Loud Humming or Grinding: A failing motor bearing will often produce a loud, continuous humming, grinding, or squealing noise from the lower back panel of the refrigerator.
- Motor is Hot to the Touch: If you pull the fridge out and find the condenser motor is too hot to touch but the fan blade is barely spinning (or completely stopped), the internal coils have burned out.
Installation Tips
- Safety First: CRITICAL: Always unplug the refrigerator from the wall outlet before removing the lower back cardboard access panel.
- Save the Old Fan Blade: PRO TIP: This product is the motor only. You must gently pull the white plastic or metal fan blade off the old motor shaft and transfer it to the new motor. Do not throw the old blade away!
- Clear the Coils: A dead condenser fan is often caused by years of dust and pet hair clogging the condenser coils, which suffocates the motor. Use a narrow vacuum attachment and a coil brush to thoroughly clean the area before installing the new part.
- Position the Blade Correctly: When pressing the old fan blade onto the new motor shaft, ensure it is pushed down to the exact same depth as it was originally. If it sits too high or too low, it will scrape against the metal mounting bracket when it spins.
- Secure the Mounting Screws: Ensure the bracket holding the motor is screwed back in tightly. A loose bracket will cause the motor to vibrate loudly against the frame of the refrigerator.
