XPARTCO WR60X35205 Refrigerator Evaporator Fan Motor
The XPARTCO WR60X35205 is an aftermarket replacement fresh food evaporator fan motor for GE refrigerators. This small DC motor drives the fan that circulates cold air from the evaporator across the fresh food (refrigerator) compartment, keeping temperature consistent throughout the section — especially important on larger or multi-zone units where air needs to reach multiple shelves and drawers evenly. When the motor's bearings wear out or the windings fail, airflow to the fresh food section drops off even though the freezer keeps working normally, since the two compartments typically run on separate fan motors.
Rated 13.6V DC, 0.16A, this is a direct-fit aftermarket replacement built to the same mounting and electrical specification as the original motor. A quieter-running motor than a worn original is a common result after replacement, since failing bearings are often what make the old motor noisy before it fails outright.
Quick Answer
The XPARTCO WR60X35205 Evaporator Fan Motor fixes a GE refrigerator whose fresh food (fridge) compartment is running warm while the freezer still works fine, or that makes a new buzzing/grinding noise from the fan area. 13.6V DC / 0.16A, direct-fit replacement. Classic symptom: fridge section creeping up toward 50-55°F while the freezer stays cold, often paired with a noisy fan just before failure.
Common Problems This Part Fixes
Fresh food (refrigerator) compartment running warm while the freezer stays cold
Buzzing, grinding, or rattling noise from the fan area — often a sign of a failing bearing
Inconsistent or uneven cooling across refrigerator shelves and drawers
Food in the bottom crisper drawers freezing unexpectedly due to airflow imbalance
Fan not running at all, or running intermittently
Cross Reference Information
Part numbers can change over a product's lifecycle as manufacturers update designs or release new appliance models. For your convenience, we've included any known superseded, alternate, or cross-reference part numbers that match this item.
Replaces Part Numbers
This fan motor directly replaces the following part numbers:
WR60X35205, WR60X29099, WR60X20880, WR60X24723, WR60X26281, DAZB0838RCM, 197D9873P003, AGE29910, AP6997194, EAP16226575, PD00071276, PS16226575
These numbers span several generations of GE's own part numbering for this fan motor as the design was updated over time — all are the correct replacement for this fan motor regardless of which number appears on your refrigerator's parts diagram.
Compatibility
This fan motor is compatible with 30+ GE refrigerator models, including:
CFE28TP2MDS1, CFE28TP2MES1, CFE28TP2MFS1

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Power Before Installing Unplug the refrigerator or switch off its circuit breaker before beginning. Remove the interior back panel or evaporator cover inside the fresh food compartment per your model's service guide — you may need to remove shelves or drawers first for access. Some models require a short defrost/thaw wait if frost has built up around the evaporator assembly. Disconnect the wire harness from the old fan motor, remove the mounting screws or clips, and note the fan blade's orientation before removing it. Transfer the fan blade to the new motor if it isn't included, install the new motor in the same position, reconnect the wire harness, and reinstall the cover and any shelves. Restore power and confirm the fan runs quietly and the compartment begins cooling normally.
Frequently Asked Questions
My fridge is warm but my freezer is fine — is this the part I need?
Yes, this is a classic symptom of a failed fresh food evaporator fan motor. Since many GE refrigerators use separate fans for the fridge and freezer compartments, a fan failure on the fridge side won't affect freezer cooling.
My fan is making a buzzing or grinding noise but still runs — should I wait until it fails completely?
Not recommended. A buzzing or grinding noise is a common sign of a failing motor bearing, and these motors often run noisy for a period before failing outright. Replacing it at the first sign of noise can prevent a sudden loss of cooling.
Is this the freezer fan or the fridge fan?
This is specifically the fresh food (refrigerator) compartment fan motor, not the freezer fan. If your freezer isn't cooling or circulating air properly, you'll need the separate freezer evaporator fan motor part instead.
Does this include the fan blade?
This listing is for the fan motor. In most cases the original fan blade transfers over to the new motor during installation — check your specific motor and blade assembly when you remove the old unit.

XPARTCO EAU63103201 Refrigerator Evaporator Fan Motor
The XPARTCO EAU63103201 is an aftermarket replacement evaporator fan motor for LG and select Kenmore/Kenmore Elite refrigerators. On this platform, the fan sits behind a panel near the crisper drawers and circulates air specifically through the fresh food compartment — a different physical location than the freezer-mounted evaporator fans found on many other brands. When this motor slows down or fails, the fresh food section is the part of the refrigerator most directly affected, since it depends on this fan to keep cold air moving across the compartment.
Rated 12V DC at 1A with a 4-pin connector, this motor has a 2.36" (60mm) shaft length and a 0.12" (3.16mm) shaft diameter, with roughly a 20.5" (56cm) wire lead. Common failure modes include worn motor bearings that let the blade wobble or bind, and general electrical wear from age. A fridge running warm, not cold at all, or making unusual noise from behind the crisper area are all signs pointing to this motor. It directly replaces 4391461, AP6317185, PS11761147, EAP11761147, and PD00051700. Also identified by its production number, ODM-001F-41.
Quick Answer
The XPARTCO EAU63103201 Refrigerator Evaporator Fan Motor fixes LG and select Kenmore/Kenmore Elite refrigerators where the fresh food compartment runs too warm or isn't cooling at all, or there's unusual noise from behind the crisper drawer area. DC 12V, 1A, 4-pin connector, 2.36" (60mm) shaft length, 0.12" (3.16mm) shaft diameter. Replaces 4391461, AP6317185, PS11761147, EAP11761147, PD00051700. LG uses several similarly-numbered EAU-prefix fan motors across its lineup — this is a different part from the EAU63923603/EAU65058305 assembly used on other LG models, so verify your exact model number before ordering.
Common Problems This Part Fixes
Fresh food compartment running too warm

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Refrigerator Before Starting Disconnect power at the outlet before beginning. Wear work gloves. Access on this platform is different from many other brands: rather than removing a rear panel inside the freezer, slide the crisper drawer out fully, then remove the panel behind or above the drawer area to expose the fan motor. Photograph the wiring connector and the fan blade's position before disconnecting anything. Disconnect the 4-pin electrical connector from the old motor, remove the mounting screws or clips holding the motor bracket in place, and carefully 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 on the 60mm shaft. Mount the new EAU63103201 in the same position, reconnect the 4-pin connector fully, and confirm the blade spins freely by hand without contacting the housing before reassembling the panel and sliding the crisper drawer back into place. Restore power and monitor the fresh food compartment over the next several hours to confirm normal cooling has returned. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why is this fan located near the crisper drawers instead of in the freezer?
LG's refrigerator platform routes cold air to the fresh food compartment differently than many other brands, with this particular fan positioned behind a panel near the crisper drawer area rather than inside the freezer compartment. That's simply a difference in refrigerator design between manufacturers — it doesn't affect the fan's job, which is still to keep cold air circulating through the fresh food section, but it does mean the access point for this repair looks different from what you might expect if you've worked on a different brand before.
My fridge section is warm but everything else seems fine. Is this the right part?
Yes, this is the classic symptom this motor addresses. Since this fan specifically circulates air through the fresh food compartment, a failure here tends to affect that section directly — a warm fridge with an otherwise normally-functioning freezer points squarely at this motor rather than at the compressor or refrigerant system.
There are several similar LG fan motor part numbers online. How do I know I have the right one?
LG's EAU-prefix fan motors can look similar at a glance, but they aren't interchangeable — for example, the EAU63923603/EAU65058305 assembly used on models like the LFXS28596S and LMXS28626S is a completely different part from this EAU63103201 motor. The safest way to confirm is to check your refrigerator's full model number against a verified compatibility list, or contact our support team with your model number before ordering.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is an aftermarket replacement part built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine LG OEM part, but is manufactured to match the electrical specifications (12V DC, 1A, 4-pin connector), shaft dimensions, and mounting configuration of the original EAU63103201 evaporator fan motor used in compatible LG and Kenmore refrigerators.

XPARTCO WR60X10185 Refrigerator Evaporator Fan Motor
The XPARTCO WR60X10185 is an aftermarket replacement evaporator fan motor located in the freezer compartment, for GE, Hotpoint, and select Kenmore, Haier, Monogram, and Café refrigerators. This motor pulls air across the evaporator coils to strip heat from it, then circulates that cold air through the freezer and, via ducting, to the fresh food compartment. This particular motor does not include a thermistor — it ships as a fan motor with a 4-wire harness on a 6-pin connector, with two of those six pin slots left empty. If your refrigerator's original connector has a white thermistor wire in it, or a separate connector for a freezer light, this is not the correct motor for your unit.
Rated 9.75V DC, 3.25W. A fan motor generally has a long service life, but it can burn out quickly if debris or ice buildup obstructs the blade and forces the motor to work against resistance it wasn't designed for. Common symptoms of a failing motor include unusual noise from the freezer, a fresh food compartment that's warmer than it should be while the freezer stays reasonably cold, frost or ice accumulating around the fan or coil, and a refrigerator that runs constantly trying to compensate for lost circulation. It directly replaces AP3875639, 1170107, 197D2039P007, 197D2039P008, PS1019114, EAP1019114, WR23X10346, WR23X10350, WR23X10353, WR23X10355, WR23X10364, WR23X10404, WR23X10405, WR23X10406, WR60X10043, WR60X10059, WR60X10068, WR60X10083, WR60X10084, WR60X10099, WR60X10149, WR60X10152, WR60X10154, and WR60X10157. As an aftermarket replacement, the WR60X10185 is built to OEM-equivalent quality standards.
Quick Answer
The XPARTCO WR60X10185 Refrigerator Evaporator Fan Motor fixes GE, Hotpoint, and select Kenmore refrigerators where the fresh food section runs warm while the freezer stays cold, there's unusual noise from the freezer, or frost is building up around the coil. 9.75V DC, 3.25W, 4-wire harness on a 6-pin connector (2 pins empty). Does NOT include a thermistor. Replaces AP3875639, 1170107, 197D2039P007, 197D2039P008, PS1019114, WR23X10353, WR23X10355, WR23X10364, WR60X10043, WR60X10154, and others listed below. If your old connector has a white thermistor wire, you need WR60X10074 instead; if it has a light connector, you need WR23X10467.
Common Problems This Part Fixes
Fresh food compartment running warmer than normal while the freezer stays reasonably cold
Unusual noise — humming, buzzing, or grinding — coming from the freezer
Freezer not cooling properly, which in turn affects compressor performance
Frost or ice buildup accumulating around the fan blade or evaporator coil
Refrigerator running continuously as it struggles to maintain temperature
Fan motor that has burned out due to an obstruction preventing the blade from turning
Fan blade that doesn't spin freely, or doesn't spin at all, when checked by hand

Compatibility
This evaporator fan motor is compatible with select GE and Hotpoint refrigerators, and also fits select Kenmore, Haier, Monogram, and Café refrigerators built on the GE platform.
Note — check your connector before ordering: GE uses several different evaporator fan motor variants that look nearly identical, and choosing the wrong one means the connector or function won't match your refrigerator. This WR60X10185 motor has no thermistor and a plain 4-wire harness with 2 empty slots on its 6-pin connector. If your old motor's connector has a white thermistor wire in it, you need WR60X10074 instead (harness with integrated thermistor). If your old connector instead has a dedicated light connector, you need WR23X10467. This part is also a separate motor from our WR60X10318 listing, which is a side-by-side platform assembly with its own integrated thermistor and a longer harness. Always verify your full model number before ordering. Contact our support team with your model number if you're unsure which motor fits your refrigerator.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Refrigerator Before Starting — Check Your Connector Type First Disconnect power at the outlet before beginning, and move perishable food to a cooler for the duration of the repair. Wear work gloves. Before removing the old motor, look closely at its connector: confirm it's a plain 4-wire harness with no thermistor wire and no separate light connector, matching this replacement. Access is 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 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. Transfer the fan blade to the new motor if a blade isn't included, matching the original orientation. Mount the new WR60X10185 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, nut driver, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if I need this motor or the one with the thermistor?
Look directly at your old motor's electrical connector before ordering. This WR60X10185 motor has a plain 4-wire harness on a 6-pin plug, with two of the six pin positions left empty — there's no thermistor wire involved. If your connector instead has a white thermistor wire running into it, you'll need WR60X10074, which includes an integrated thermistor and is not interchangeable with this motor. If your connector has a separate plug specifically for a freezer light, you'll need WR23X10467 instead.
My fresh food section is warm but the freezer seems fine. Is this the right part?
Yes, this is a very common and telling symptom pattern. The freezer sits right next to the evaporator coil and can stay reasonably cold through proximity even with weakening air circulation, but the fresh food compartment depends entirely on the 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, and GE's own guidance confirms that a fresh-food-warm/freezer-fine pattern points to this fan.
Why would a fan motor "burn out quickly" instead of just wearing out slowly?
While this motor generally has a long service life, it can fail rapidly if something obstructs the fan blade from turning — commonly built-up frost or ice, or occasionally debris. When the blade can't turn freely, the motor works against resistance it wasn't designed for, which accelerates internal wear and can burn it out much faster than normal aging would. Clearing ice from around the fan before or during replacement helps prevent stressing the new motor the same way.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is an aftermarket replacement part built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine GE OEM part, but is manufactured to match the original 9.75V, 3.25W motor design, blade fitment, and 4-wire harness configuration of the fan motor originally installed in your refrigerator.

XPARTCO BPV-31 Refrigerator Refrigerant Piercing Valve / Line Tap Valve Kit
The XPARTCO BPV-31 is a universal bullet piercing tap valve (line tap valve) used to quickly access a sealed refrigerant line on refrigerators, freezers, window air conditioners, dehumidifiers, and other HVAC systems — without soldering or brazing. The valve clamps around a copper refrigerant line and, when the valve stem is tightened with the included hex key, a hardened piercing needle punctures the tubing to create an access port. This lets a technician connect a charging hose or gauge to check pressure, pull a vacuum, or add refrigerant to a system that has no factory service port. It's a staple tool for appliance service and DIY refrigerator/freezer repair.
Fits 1/4", 5/16", and 3/8" outside diameter copper pipes with the included adapters. The access port connection is a 1/4" male flare fitting. Rated to 500 PSI maximum, with a patented permanent gasket providing over 180 inch-lbs of sealing force — around 50 times the sealing area of a standard O-ring type valve — pressure tested at 250°F. Corrosion-resistant metal (zinc alloy) construction with a piercing needle engineered for concentricity and hardness to seat perfectly every time. Non-positional mounting requires no separate adapter valve and only 2" of clearance for installation. Each kit includes the piercing valve, a hex key wrench, and 2 adapters. It replaces AP4502525, BPV31, BPV31D, GPV14, GPV31, GPV38, GPV56, and MPV31.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Refrigerant Safety Warning Working with sealed refrigerant systems can expose you to pressurized refrigerant, which can cause frostbite, eye injury, and other harm. Wear safety glasses and protective gloves before piercing any line. Refrigerant handling may be regulated in your area — certain refrigerants require EPA certification (in the US) to purchase and handle. Never vent refrigerant to the atmosphere. This valve is NOT rated for R410a systems (too high pressure). If you're not experienced with refrigerant systems, have this work done by a qualified HVAC or appliance technician.
⚠️ Installation Steps — Clean the Line First Put on safety glasses and protective gloves. Identify the copper line you want to tap and confirm its outside diameter (1/4", 5/16", or 3/8") so you can select the correct included adapter. Clean the section of pipe where the valve will mount to prevent debris from entering the refrigerant line. Ensure the composite seal "O" ring/gasket is properly in place inside the valve. Place the two halves of the valve saddle around the pipe using the appropriate adapter insert for your pipe size. Install and evenly tighten the socket-head screws to clamp the valve body firmly around the pipe. To pierce the line, turn the valve stem clockwise with the included hex key until the needle punctures the tubing, then back the stem out (counterclockwise) to open the port and allow flow. To connect a gauge or charging hose: remove the cap, attach your hose to the 1/4" flare port, and open the valve by turning the stem counterclockwise. When finished, close the valve (turn the stem clockwise) BEFORE disconnecting the hose, then reinstall the protective cap. Note: the compact valve needs only 2" of clearance around the pipe. Tools needed: Included hex key wrench, safety glasses, protective gloves. (Note: to attach a gauge directly to the BPV, a retrofit valve adapter may be required — not included.)
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a bullet piercing valve used for?
A bullet piercing valve (line tap valve) lets you tap into a sealed copper refrigerant line to create an access port — without cutting, soldering, or brazing the line. Most household refrigerators and freezers are sealed systems with no factory service port, so if you need to check the refrigerant pressure, pull a vacuum, or add refrigerant, a piercing valve gives you that access quickly. It clamps around the pipe, and a needle pierces the tubing when you tighten the valve stem. It's commonly used in appliance repair and HVAC service, and by DIYers reviving a garage refrigerator or freezer that has lost its charge.
Which pipe sizes does this fit?
The BPV-31 fits 1/4", 5/16", and 3/8" outside diameter copper pipes using the included adapters. Before installing, measure or confirm your refrigerant line's outside diameter and select the matching adapter insert. Getting the size right is essential for a proper seal — an incorrectly sized adapter won't clamp tightly and can leak. If you're not sure of your line size, measure the outside diameter of the copper tubing with calipers or a pipe gauge.
Can I use this on an R410a system?
No — the BPV-31 is NOT rated for R410a refrigerant systems. R410a operates at significantly higher pressures than older refrigerants like R-12, R-22, and R-134a, and exceeds the safe working pressure of this valve (500 PSI max). Using it on an R410a system is unsafe and could result in valve failure or refrigerant release. This valve is appropriate for lower-pressure systems using R-12, R-22, R-134a, and similar refrigerants. For R410a systems, use service equipment specifically rated for R410a pressures.
Is a piercing valve a permanent solution?
Piercing valves are best thought of as a service-access tool rather than a permanent fixture. They work reliably for tapping into a line to diagnose, vacuum, or charge a system, and the BPV-31's patented gasket provides a much stronger seal than basic O-ring valves. However, for a long-term permanent service port, many technicians prefer to cut the line and braze in a proper Schrader service port. Some technicians have concerns about the very long-term sealing of any piercing valve left permanently on a line. If you leave the valve installed, make sure the stem is closed and the cap is in place, and check periodically for leaks.
Do I need EPA certification to add refrigerant?
In the United States, handling many refrigerants (and purchasing them) requires EPA Section 608 certification, and it is illegal to intentionally vent refrigerant to the atmosphere. Regulations vary by refrigerant type and jurisdiction. The piercing valve itself is a tool that anyone can install, but the refrigerant handling that follows may be regulated. If you're a DIYer, research the rules that apply to your specific refrigerant and location, or have the refrigerant work done by a certified technician. Always recover refrigerant properly rather than venting it.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is an aftermarket universal service tool built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. The BPV-31 is a universal industry-standard bullet piercing valve design (also sold as Supco BPV31 and equivalent), manufactured from corrosion-resistant zinc alloy to match the fit, 1/4"/5/16"/3/8" pipe compatibility, 1/4" flare port, 500 PSI rating, and patented-style sealing gasket of the standard BPV-31 line tap valve. It replaces AP4502525, BPV31D, GPV14, GPV31, GPV38, GPV56, and MPV31.
