This motor draws air across the evaporator coil, cooling it, and circulates that cold air from the freezer into the fresh food compartment, keeping both sides of the refrigerator at consistent, even temperatures and preventing warm spots that can lead to food spoilage. This part features an incorporated wire harness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOver time, the motor's bearings wear out or the motor fails electrically, and when this happens it commonly generates noticeable noise from the freezer area before it fails completely. Symptoms include unusual noise from the freezer, the fresh food compartment running warm while the freezer stays cold, ice buildup on the evaporator coil, or inconsistent cooling overall. It directly replaces 2219689, 2225625, 2315539, W10438708, and WP2315539VP.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pom-qa\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"pom-qa-label\"\u003eQuick Answer\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eWP2315539 Genuine OEM Whirlpool Refrigerator Evaporator Fan Motor\u003c\/strong\u003e fixes Whirlpool side-by-side refrigerators with unusual noise from the freezer, a fresh food compartment running warm while the freezer stays cold, ice buildup on the evaporator coil, or inconsistent cooling.

Wear work gloves. Remove the rear access panel from the refrigerator by unscrewing the screws attaching it to the back of the unit. Locate the evaporator fan motor within the refrigerator as indicated in your model's manual. If there's significant frost or ice around the fan or coil, let the unit sit unplugged with the door open for a few hours before continuing. Unplug the wiring harness from the old fan motor, remove the screws securing it in place, and remove the old motor. Install the new WP2315539 in the same position, reconnect the wiring harness, and secure the new motor with the mounting screws. Replace the rear access panel and restore power, then check to confirm the fan motor is working properly and both compartments are cooling evenly. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, flathead screwdriver, work gloves.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pom-card\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pom-faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"pom-faq-q\"\u003eMy freezer is getting noisy.
