XPARTCO WR60X10168 Refrigerator Condenser Fan Motor
Product Description
Parts-O-Matic stocks XPARTCO parts as a value-priced alternative to OEM. The XPARTCO WR60X10168 is a compatible replacement condenser fan motor for GE, Hotpoint, Kenmore, and RCA top-mount refrigerators. The condenser fan circulates air across the condenser coil and helps cool the compressor — when it fails, the entire refrigeration system is at risk of overheating.
This motor includes a 3-wire harness with connector for plug-and-play installation. Electrical specs match the original: 115V, 60Hz, 11W, 2200 RPM. Motor dimensions are approximately 3‑7/8″ L × 2‑1/2″ W × 3″ H.

What Is an OE Part?
OE (Original Equipment) means this part is manufactured by the same original supplier that produces the Genuine OEM version — identical fit, materials, and performance. The only difference is packaging: OE parts ship under our XPARTCO brand rather than the appliance manufacturer's branded box, which is why they can't be listed as Genuine OEM. You get factory-original quality at a more affordable price.

⚠ Installation Note: Unplug the refrigerator before beginning any repair. The condenser fan motor is located behind the rear access panel at the bottom back of the unit. Remove the panel with a nut driver, disconnect the wire harness, and unmount the motor. Connect the new motor, reinstall the panel, and plug the refrigerator back in. Verify fan operation when the compressor next cycles on. Repair time is typically 30–60 minutes.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if my condenser fan motor has failed?
Common signs are the refrigerator section not cooling while the freezer still works, the compressor running continuously, or no fan noise from the back of the unit when the compressor is on. You can verify by pulling the fridge away from the wall and listening — if the compressor is running but the fan is not spinning, the motor has likely failed.
Does this motor fit my model?
This motor fits a wide range of GE, Hotpoint, Kenmore, and RCA top-mount refrigerators in the 14–18 cu. ft. range. Check your model number on the label inside the refrigerator door and compare it against the compatibility list. If you're unsure, contact us before ordering.
Is this the same as WR60X10018, WR60X10021, or WR60X10028?
Yes. WR60X10168 is the current part number and directly supersedes WR60X10018, WR60X10021, WR60X10028, WR60X10061, and WR60X10153. All are cross-compatible — if your appliance used any of those earlier numbers, the WR60X10168 is the correct replacement.
Is this an OEM part?
No. This is an XPARTCO aftermarket part sold as a value-priced compatible replacement. It is not manufactured by or affiliated with GE Appliances. If you require a genuine GE OEM part, we carry those separately.
What tools do I need for this repair?
A nut driver (typically 1/4″ or 5/16″) is all that's needed to remove the rear access panel and motor mounting screws. The harness connector is plug-and-play — no wire splicing or electrical tools required.
