WR60X31522 GE Refrigerator Evaporator Fan Motor
The WR60X31522 is a OE replacement evaporator fan motor compatible with select GE, Hotpoint, RCA, and Americana top-mount freezer refrigerators. The evaporator fan motor is located at the back of the freezer compartment and circulates air across the evaporator coils — converting the heat from the air into cool air that's then distributed throughout both the freezer and fresh food sections. Without a properly functioning evaporator fan, the refrigerator can't move cold air where it's needed, causing the fresh food and/or freezer sections to warm up, ice to build up on the coils, and the compressor to run continuously trying to compensate.
This 115V AC motor is rated at 60Hz, 3.3W and uses a 2-pin connector plus ground wire. Dimensions are 3-1/4"L x 2-3/8"W x 3-3/8"H, with a harness and plug extending approximately 3-1/2" from the motor. Construction is plastic and metal in marbled white & gray. Note: this listing is for the motor with harness only — the fan blade may need to be transferred from the old motor. It directly replaces WR60X10045, WR60X10046, WR60X10072, WR60X10138, WR60X10141, WR60X10346, WR60X23584, WR60X27646, WR60X28783, WR60X28784, WR60X31122, WR60X31523, 4959523, 197D2038P031, AP6977246, EAP12741350, PD00062864, and PS12741350. Installs in 30–45 minutes with basic hand tools.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Refrigerator and Move Perishable Food Before Starting — Wear Work Gloves Unplug the refrigerator and safely store any food that could spoil while the power is off. Wear work gloves to protect your hands. The evaporator fan motor is located at the back of the freezer compartment, behind an interior access panel. Remove the freezer shelves and any internal components blocking access to the rear panel. Remove the screws holding the rear access panel in place to expose the evaporator coils and fan motor. Photograph the wire connections and fan blade orientation before disconnecting. Disconnect the 2-pin wire harness connector and the ground wire from the old motor. Note the orientation of the fan blade on the motor shaft — the blade typically presses onto the shaft and may need to be transferred to the new motor. Remove the mounting screws or release the motor from its mounting bracket, and pull the old motor free. Carefully transfer the fan blade to the new WR60X31522 motor in the same orientation (or use a new blade if you have one). Install the new motor in the same position, reconnect the wire harness and ground wire, and reinstall the access panel and shelves. Plug the refrigerator back in and allow several hours for the unit to return to its set temperature before reloading with food. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, 1/4" nut driver, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if the evaporator fan motor has failed?
The most common symptoms are: the refrigerator or freezer is warmer than its set temperature even though the compressor sounds like it's running normally; heavy frost or ice buildup on the evaporator coils behind the freezer access panel ("Antarctica" frost); and loud whining, grinding, or scraping noise from the freezer area. To confirm: unplug the refrigerator, remove the rear freezer access panel, and try turning the fan blade by hand. If it doesn't spin freely or is stiff/seized, the motor bearing has failed. You can also test for motor continuity with a multimeter — no continuity confirms electrical failure.
My refrigerator has two evaporator fans — which one does this replace?
Some refrigerator models have two evaporator fan motors — one in the fresh food section and one in the freezer section. The WR60X31522 is typically the freezer-section evaporator fan motor on top-mount style GE and Hotpoint refrigerators. If your symptom is "freezer not cooling properly" or "frost on freezer coils," this is the correct part. If your symptom is specifically "fresh food section warm while freezer is fine" on a French door refrigerator, you may need a different fan motor — contact our support team with your model number to confirm.
Does this motor come with the fan blade?
No — the WR60X31522 listing is for the motor with harness and plug only. The fan blade is typically transferred from the old motor: carefully pull it off the old motor shaft (it presses on, no hardware needed), and press it onto the new motor shaft in the same orientation. If your old fan blade is damaged or cracked, it should be replaced separately. Installing the blade in the wrong direction will reverse the airflow and reduce cooling performance.
What's the difference between the WR60X31522 (115V AC) and DC motors like the WR60X10209 or WR60X26866?
GE refrigerators use different fan motor technologies across model generations. The WR60X31522 is a 115V AC motor with a 2-pin connector plus ground — used in many GE and Hotpoint top-mount freezer refrigerators. The WR60X10209 and WR60X26866 are DC voltage motors (around 11–14V DC) used in newer GE French door refrigerators with electronic control boards that supply variable DC voltage for energy-efficient variable-speed fan operation. These are not interchangeable — always verify the correct part number for your specific refrigerator model before ordering.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is a Genuine OEM part manufactured by GE to factory specifications. It is the exact same evaporator fan motor installed in compatible GE, Hotpoint, RCA, and Americana refrigerators from the factory — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance.

WR60X10257 (OE) Refrigerator Evaporator Fan Motor
The WR60X10257 is an OE (Original Equipment) evaporator fan motor, also known as an AC/DC fan motor, for GE and Hotpoint refrigerators. Located at the back of the freezer, this motor circulates air across the evaporator coils, which convert refrigerant into cooling capacity — the fan is what carries that cold air into both the freezer and fresh food compartments.
Rated 115V, 60Hz, 2.4W. Common failure causes include worn motor bearings and general electrical wear. A failing motor produces a recognizable symptom: the freezer may stay reasonably cold while the fresh food section runs warm, since the fresh food compartment depends entirely on this fan to receive circulated cold air. Other symptoms include unusual noise from the freezer or inconsistent cooling overall. It directly replaces 1373246, 200D5001P003, AP4318644, EAP1766252, PS1766252, AH1766252, UDQR002GNL, WR60X10129, AGE29237, and PD00028496.
Quick Answer
The WR60X10257 (OE) Refrigerator Evaporator Fan Motor fixes GE and Hotpoint refrigerators where the freezer stays cold but the fresh food section runs warm, there's unusual noise from the freezer, or cooling is inconsistent. 115V, 60Hz, 2.4W. Replaces 1373246, 200D5001P003, AP4318644, EAP1766252, PS1766252, AH1766252, UDQR002GNL, WR60X10129, AGE29237, PD00028496. This is a 115V AC-powered motor — a different design from the 9.75V DC evaporator fan motors in our WR60X10074, WR60X10185, and WR60X10318 listings. Always match your original motor's voltage type before ordering.
Common Problems This Part Fixes
Freezer stays cold but the fresh food compartment runs warm
Refrigerator or freezer sections too warm overall
Unusual noise — humming, buzzing, or grinding — coming from the freezer
Inconsistent or fluctuating refrigerator temperatures
Refrigerator running constantly as it struggles to maintain temperature
Fan blade that doesn't spin freely, or doesn't spin at all, when checked by hand
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 Notes
⚠️ Unplug Refrigerator Before Starting Disconnect power at the outlet before beginning, and move perishable food to a cooler for the duration of the repair. Wear work gloves. Access is typically through the freezer's rear interior panel: remove shelving and bins as needed, then remove the screws securing the back panel to expose the evaporator coil and fan assembly. 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, or run a manual defrost, before continuing. Photograph the wiring harness connector and the fan blade's orientation before disconnecting anything. Unplug the wiring harness connector from the old motor, remove the mounting screws or clips holding the motor bracket in place, and pull the motor and fan blade assembly free. Transfer the fan blade to the new motor if a blade isn't included, matching the original orientation. Mount the new WR60X10257 in the same position, reconnect the wiring harness connector fully, and confirm the blade spins freely by hand without contacting the housing before reassembling the back panel. Restore power and monitor both compartments over the next 24 hours to confirm even, consistent cooling has returned. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
My freezer is cold but the fridge section is warm. Is this the right part?
Yes, this is a very common and telling symptom pattern. The freezer sits close to the evaporator coil and can stay reasonably cold through proximity even with weakening air circulation, but the fresh food compartment depends entirely on this fan pushing cold air through the ducting to reach it. When the fan motor fails or slows down, the fresh food side is usually the first and most noticeably affected area.
How do I know if I need this 115V motor or one of your DC motors?
Check the voltage rating printed directly on your old motor before ordering. This WR60X10257 is a 115V AC-powered motor, while our WR60X10074, WR60X10185, and WR60X10318 listings are all 9.75V DC motors used on different GE refrigerator generations. The two motor types are not interchangeable, so matching the voltage rating on your original motor is the most reliable way to confirm which one you need.
Is this a genuine OEM part?
This is an OE (Original Equipment) part sold under our XPARTCO brand. OE parts are manufactured by the same original supplier that produces the Genuine OEM part, so the fit, materials, and performance are identical — the difference is that OE parts ship in XPARTCO packaging rather than the appliance manufacturer's branded box, which is why we can't list them as Genuine OEM.

WP2315539 Genuine OEM Whirlpool Refrigerator Evaporator Fan Motor
The WP2315539 is a genuine Whirlpool OEM evaporator fan motor for Whirlpool side-by-side refrigerators. 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.
Over 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.

Frequently Asked Questions
My freezer is getting noisy. Is this the evaporator fan motor?
It's a strong possibility. When this motor's bearings begin to wear, it commonly generates noticeable noise in the freezer area well before it fails outright. If you're hearing new or increasing noise from the freezer, this motor is a reasonable first thing to check.
Does this motor include the wire harness, or do I need to buy that separately?
This motor comes with an incorporated wire harness already attached, so no separate harness purchase is needed for a standard installation. If your original motor's connector setup looks different from what's included here, double-check compatibility with our support team before ordering.
Is this the same as the 2315549 motor I've seen listed elsewhere?
No, these are two separate part numbers that are easy to confuse given how similar they look. Always confirm the exact part number from your refrigerator's parts diagram or the sticker on your old motor rather than assuming based on a close number match.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is a genuine OEM part, manufactured by Whirlpool to factory specifications — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance. It matches the original motor design, wire harness, and blade fitment of the evaporator fan motor originally installed in your refrigerator.

WR60X31997 Genuine OEM GE Refrigerator Ice Box Fan Motor
The WR60X31997 is a genuine GE OEM ice box fan motor assembly for GE, Hotpoint, Haier, Monogram, and Café refrigerators. This motor is situated in the freezer section and circulates cold air specifically around the ice box area, playing a direct role in ice production as well as general cooling and airflow in that part of the freezer. Consistent airflow here is what keeps the ice maker producing normally and prevents warm spots from developing nearby.
Rated 12V DC, 0.23A. Common causes of failure include a malfunctioning motor, worn-out bushings that hinder smooth rotation, or damaged fan blades that restrict airflow; mineral buildup can also gradually degrade the fan's efficiency over time. A failing ice box fan produces a recognizable set of symptoms: reduced or inadequate ice production, items in the freezer warming up or defrosting even with the door shut, unusual sounds or vibration when the fan runs, or uneven frost patterns suggesting the airflow in that area isn't circulating properly. It directly replaces PD00071430, 4964240, AP6978662, PS12744140, and EAP12744140.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Refrigerator Before Starting Disconnect power at the outlet before beginning, and move perishable food to a cooler for the duration of the repair. Wear work gloves. Access the ice box fan by locating the panel or housing covering it in the freezer's ice box area — this may require removing the ice maker or nearby components for clearance depending on your model. Photograph the wiring and the fan blade's orientation before disconnecting anything. Disconnect the motor's wiring harness connector, remove the mounting screws or clips holding the motor bracket in place, and pull the motor and fan blade assembly free. Mount the new WR60X31997 in the same position, reconnect the wiring harness connector, and confirm the blade spins freely by hand without contacting the housing before reassembling any panels or components you removed for access. Restore power and monitor ice production and freezer temperature over the next 24 hours to confirm normal operation has returned. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
My ice maker is producing less ice than usual. Could this fan be the cause?
Yes, this is one of the more common symptoms of a failing ice box fan. Since this fan circulates cold air specifically around the ice box area, reduced airflow from a struggling or seized motor can directly slow down ice production, even if the rest of the freezer seems to be cooling normally.
Items near the ice box seem to be warming up even though the freezer door is shut. Is that related?
Yes. If this fan isn't circulating air properly, the area around the ice box can lose consistent cooling even while the rest of the freezer stays cold, since that zone depends specifically on this fan for airflow. This localized warming, paired with reduced ice production, is a strong combined signal pointing to this fan.
Is this the same as a general evaporator fan motor?
No, this is a distinct component. The ice box fan motor circulates air specifically around the ice box area to support ice production and nearby cooling, while a general evaporator fan motor circulates air across the evaporator coil for the freezer and fresh food compartments more broadly. The two serve different roles and are not interchangeable — always confirm which fan your model needs using your parts diagram or model number.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is a genuine OEM part, manufactured by GE to factory specifications — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance. It matches the original motor design, blade fitment, and mounting configuration of the ice box fan motor originally installed in your refrigerator.

WR30X39385 Genuine OEM GE Refrigerator Ice Maker
The WR30X39385 is a genuine GE OEM ice maker assembly for GE refrigerators. This complete unit receives water, holds it in an internal mold, and freezes it into cubes, then ejects the finished ice into the freezer's ice bucket or drawer, repeating the cycle automatically until the bucket is full. It's the full assembly, not just an internal component, so replacing it addresses the ice-making mechanism, mold, and cycling controls together as one unit.
Over time, internal components can wear or fail electrically, or the mold itself can develop issues that affect how cleanly ice releases. A failing ice maker typically shows up as reduced or stopped ice production, or ice cubes coming out hollow or malformed rather than solid. It directly replaces AP7179920.
Quick Answer
The WR30X39385 Genuine OEM GE Refrigerator Ice Maker fixes GE refrigerators that have stopped making ice, are producing significantly less ice than usual, or are making hollow or malformed cubes. Complete ice maker assembly. Replaces AP7179920. Installation is a moderate DIY repair, typically 30-45 minutes.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Refrigerator Before Starting — Allow Components To Defrost Disconnect power to the refrigerator before beginning, and move perishable food to a cooler for the duration of the repair. Wear work gloves. If there's frost or ice buildup around the ice maker or its fill tube, allow the area to defrost fully before continuing, since ice buildup can make removal difficult and may mask the fill tube's actual condition. Open the freezer door and locate the ice maker assembly. Remove the ice bucket or drawer to improve access. Photograph the wiring harness connection and the fill tube position before disconnecting anything. Remove the mounting screws securing the ice maker in place, then disconnect the wire harness connector and the water fill tube connection. Remove the old ice maker fully. Install the new WR30X39385 in the same mounting position, making sure the fill tube aligns correctly so water reaches the mold without leaking, and reconnect the wire harness connector securely. Secure the mounting screws, reinstall the ice bucket or drawer, and restore power. Allow several hours for the first cycle to complete and confirm ice is being produced and ejected normally. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
My ice cubes are coming out hollow. Is that the ice maker?
Yes, hollow or malformed cubes are a documented symptom of ice maker issues on this platform, alongside reduced or stopped ice production altogether. This can point to a problem with how the mold fills or releases ice, and replacing the complete assembly addresses the mold and cycling mechanism together rather than trying to diagnose and repair individual internal components.
Why does the fill tube alignment matter so much during installation?
The fill tube is what delivers water from the refrigerator's supply line into the ice maker's mold at the start of each cycle. If it's not aligned correctly during installation, water can miss the mold, leak into the freezer compartment, or fail to fill the mold completely, all of which prevent normal ice production even with a perfectly good new ice maker installed.
Do I need to defrost anything before starting this repair?
If there's visible frost or ice buildup around the old ice maker or its fill tube, yes — letting that area defrost fully makes removal easier and gives you a clearer look at the fill tube's actual condition, rather than working around ice that could mask damage or make the old unit harder to detach cleanly.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is a genuine OEM part, manufactured by GE to factory specifications — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance. It includes the same mold design, cycling mechanism, and mounting configuration as the ice maker originally installed in your refrigerator.

2159083 Genuine OEM Whirlpool Refrigerator Door Gasket
The 2159083 is a genuine Whirlpool OEM door gasket for the fresh food (refrigerator) door on Whirlpool side-by-side refrigerators. This flexible rubber gasket runs around the entire inner edge of the door and is what actually creates the airtight seal against the cabinet when the door closes — magnetic strips embedded inside the gasket pull it snug against the frame, keeping cold air inside and warm room air out. It's a simple-looking part with an outsized job: nearly every "why is my fridge working overtime" complaint traces back either to the gasket or to something the gasket is failing to seal against.
Black in color, measuring approximately 19-1/4" wide by 62" tall. Over time, the gasket's rubber loses flexibility and can crack, tear, or develop permanent creases, and its embedded magnetic strip can weaken. Food debris or moisture trapped along the sealing edge accelerates this wear. A failing gasket lets cold air leak out continuously, which forces the compressor to run longer and more often just to hold temperature, and often shows up as visible frost or condensation forming right at the seal. It directly replaces AP3038628, 2171185, 2181893, 2196241, 2221313, 2309529, 443026, AH323906, EA323906, EAP323906, PS323906, and W10912133. As a genuine OEM part, the 2159083 is manufactured by Whirlpool to factory specifications — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance.
Quick Answer
The 2159083 Genuine OEM Whirlpool Refrigerator Door Gasket fixes Whirlpool side-by-side refrigerators where the fresh food door doesn't seal properly, cold air leaks out, energy bills have climbed, or condensation and frost form around the door edge. Black, approximately 19-1/4"W x 62"H, for the fresh food (refrigerator) door specifically. Replaces AP3038628, 2171185, 2181893, 2196241, 2221313, 2309529, 443026, AH323906, EA323906, EAP323906, PS323906, W10912133. This is the fresh food door gasket — the matching freezer door gasket is a separate part, 2159082.
Common Problems This Part Fixes
Fresh food compartment running warmer than it should, or refrigerator running constantly
Door not closing properly or not staying sealed against the cabinet
Visible cracks, tears, or permanent creases in the rubber gasket
Condensation forming around the door seal or on the cabinet near the door
Frost or ice buildup near the door edge inside the fresh food compartment
Noticeably higher energy bills as the compressor works harder to maintain temperature
Gasket that feels stiff, brittle, or has lost its flexibility with age
Weak or inconsistent magnetic seal — the door doesn't "pull shut" the way it used to

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Refrigerator Before Starting — Soften The Gasket First For An Easier Fit Disconnect power at the outlet before beginning. Wear work gloves. The gasket is held in a retaining channel around the inside edge of the door, usually secured by a continuous strip or a series of screws under a flap of the gasket itself — starting at one corner, gently pull back the inner lip of the old gasket to expose the retaining screws, then work your way around the door removing them. New gaskets can arrive stiff from packaging and folded for shipping, which makes them harder to seat evenly. Before installing, soften the new gasket by soaking it in warm water for several minutes, or by gently warming it with a hair dryer on low heat — this makes it far more pliable and easier to seat without permanent creases. Starting at the top corner, tuck the gasket's inner lip into the retaining channel and work around the door, replacing the screws as you go, checking periodically that the gasket lies flat with no twists, folds, or overlaps. Once fully installed, close the door and run your hand around the full perimeter feeling for warm spots or drafts, and use a piece of paper as a simple test — close the door on it at several points around the seal and check that it takes light resistance to pull out. Address any folds or creases immediately, since a gasket that seals with a crease in it will not hold that seal over time. Tools needed: flat-head or Phillips screwdriver (model-dependent), warm water or hair dryer, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if it's the fresh food gasket or the freezer gasket that's failing?
Check which door is actually leaking air — run your hand around the inside edge of each door with the refrigerator running, or use the paper test (close the door on a strip of paper at several points and see if it pulls out too easily). Whichever door fails that test is the one that needs its gasket replaced. This 2159083 listing is specifically for the fresh food (refrigerator) door; the freezer door on these same side-by-side models uses a separate part, 2159082.
The new gasket is stiff and hard to seat evenly. What can I do?
This is normal — gaskets often arrive stiff and creased from packaging. Softening the gasket before installation makes a real difference: soak it in warm water for a few minutes, or gently warm it with a hair dryer set on low heat, then work it into the retaining channel while it's still pliable. A gasket installed with folds or creases won't seal properly even if it's brand new, so take the extra few minutes to get it lying flat.
How can I confirm the gasket is actually the problem before I order?
The classic test is the dollar-bill or paper test: close the door on a strip of paper at several points around the full perimeter of the seal and gently pull it out. If it slides out with little to no resistance at any point, the seal has failed at that spot. Also visually inspect the gasket for cracks, tears, permanent creases, or a soft, mushy feel to the rubber — any of these confirm it's time to replace it rather than looking elsewhere for the cause of a warm refrigerator.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is a genuine OEM part, manufactured by Whirlpool to factory specifications — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance. It matches the original rubber compound, profile, dimensions, and embedded magnetic strip of the fresh food door gasket originally installed on your side-by-side refrigerator.
