The evaporator fan motor is located inside the freezer compartment and circulates cold air from the evaporator coils throughout both the freezer and fresh food sections. Without the evaporator fan running, cold air cannot be distributed — even if the compressor and evaporator are working correctly, both compartments will gradually warm up. A failed evaporator fan motor is one of the most common causes of a refrigerator that runs but does not cool.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRated 115V, 60Hz with a 2-pin connector, this motor features a 14mm shaft length, 3mm shaft diameter, and approximately 13cm (5.1\") of wire lead.

Remove all food and shelving from the freezer compartment. On most compatible models, the evaporator fan is located behind the freezer back panel. Remove the screws securing the freezer back panel and carefully slide it out to expose the evaporator coils and fan assembly. If ice has built up on the fan or coils, use a hair dryer to melt it before attempting to remove the fan — do not force a frozen fan free. Disconnect the 2-pin wire connector from the old motor. Remove the fan blade by pulling it straight off the motor shaft, then unscrew the motor mounting brackets and remove the old motor. Install the new W10464673 motor in the same position, secure the mounting brackets, press the fan blade back onto the shaft, and reconnect the 2-pin connector. Reinstall the freezer back panel, restore power and water, and verify the fan runs when the compressor starts. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, hair dryer (if coils are iced), 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\"\u003eWhat does the evaporator fan motor do?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"pom-faq-a\"\u003eThe evaporator fan motor drives a fan blade inside the freezer compartment that draws air across the evaporator coils — the cold coils remove heat from the air, and the fan distributes the chilled air throughout both the freezer and fresh food sections via a duct system. Without the evaporator fan running, the evaporator coils still get cold and the compressor still runs, but no cold air is circulated. This causes both compartments to gradually warm up even though the refrigeration system itself may be functioning correctly. A failed evaporator fan motor is one of the most common and most frequently misdiagnosed causes of poor refrigerator cooling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pom-faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"pom-faq-q\"\u003eHow do I know if the evaporator fan motor has failed?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"pom-faq-a\"\u003eOpen the freezer door and press the door switch (the small button or tab that tells the refrigerator the door is closed) — this should start the evaporator fan if the compressor is running. If you hear no fan noise and feel no airflow from inside the freezer with the compressor running, the fan motor has likely failed. You can also remove the freezer back panel and physically check whether the fan blade spins freely by hand — if it is stuck or wobbles, inspect for ice buildup or a seized motor bearing. If the blade spins freely but the motor does not run when powered, the motor has burned out.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pom-faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"pom-faq-q\"\u003eWhat is the difference between W10464673 and WPW10464673?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"pom-faq-a\"\u003eThese are the same evaporator fan motor.

When the fan motor fails partially, the freezer may still receive some cold air passively from the evaporator, but not enough air is circulated to reach the fresh food section through the duct system. A failed evaporator fan is frequently the cause of this hot-fridge-cold-freezer pattern. Check the fan as described above — if it is not spinning, replacing the W10464673 motor will restore cooling to both compartments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pom-faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"pom-faq-q\"\u003eIs this an OEM or aftermarket part?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"pom-faq-a\"\u003eThis is an aftermarket replacement part built to OEM-equivalent quality standards.
