WR60X10209 Genuine OEM GE Refrigerator DC Condenser Fan Motor The WR60X10209 is a Genuine OEM GE replacement DC condenser fan motor compatible with a wide range of GE, Hotpoint, RCA, Kenmore, Haier, Monogram, and Café refrigerators in the GSS, GSL, HSS, PSS, PSC, GCE, PCE, and related series. The condenser fan motor is located near the compressor at the rear bottom of the refrigerator. It circulates air across the condenser coils to dissipate heat from the hot refrigerant before it returns to the evaporator — this is an essential step in the refrigeration cycle. Without the condenser fan running, heat builds up around the compressor and condenser coils, causing the refrigerator to run continuously, cool inefficiently, or trip the compressor's thermal overload protection. This Genuine OEM part is manufactured by GE to factory specifications. It is a DC voltage motor rated at 11.3V DC, 2.2W with a 4-pin plastic connector and four color-coded wires (white, blue, red, and yellow).

Pull the refrigerator away from the wall to access the rear lower back panel. Remove the screws securing the back panel to expose the compressor, condenser coils, and condenser fan assembly. The condenser fan motor is mounted on a bracket near the compressor with the fan blade facing the condenser coil. Take a photo of the wire connector orientation before disconnecting. Disconnect the 4-pin wire connector from the motor. Remove the mounting screws securing the motor to the bracket and slide the old motor out. Note the orientation of the fan blade on the motor shaft — the blade must be reinstalled in the same direction on the new motor (or transferred from the old motor if the new motor does not include a blade). Install the new WR60X10209 motor, reconnect the wire connector, reinstall the back panel, restore power, and confirm the condenser fan spins when the compressor starts. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, 1/4" nut driver. Frequently Asked Questions What does the condenser fan motor do in a refrigerator? The condenser fan motor drives a fan blade that circulates ambient air across the condenser coils at the rear of the refrigerator. The condenser coils carry hot high-pressure refrigerant that has just been compressed — the fan removes heat from the refrigerant so it can cool, condense, and return to the evaporator to absorb heat from inside the refrigerator. Without the condenser fan running, heat builds up around the compressor and coils, causing the refrigerator to lose cooling efficiency, run continuously, or — in severe cases — trip the compressor's thermal overload and shut down entirely. Why does this motor use DC voltage instead of AC? Modern GE refrigerators use DC motors for the condenser fan because they are more energy-efficient, quieter, and easier to speed-control by the refrigerator's electronic control board than traditional AC motors. The refrigerator's main control board converts household 120V AC power to 11.3V DC to supply the condenser fan motor. This DC motor runs at a variable speed under board control, which allows GE's refrigerators to optimize fan speed based on cooling demand. How do I confirm the condenser fan motor has failed? Pull the refrigerator away from the wall, unplug it, and remove the rear lower panel. Spin the condenser fan blade by hand — if it is stiff, wobbles, or seizes, the motor bearing has failed. If the blade spins freely but the motor does not run when the refrigerator is plugged in and the compressor starts, check for DC voltage at the motor connector using a multimeter. If the board is supplying approximately 11–12V DC to the motor but the motor is not running, the motor has failed electrically. If no voltage is present, the control board may not be supplying power — a less common but possible failure mode. Does this motor come with the fan blade? The WR60X10209 is the motor only — the fan blade is typically not included and should be transferred from the old motor. When removing the old motor, carefully pull the fan blade off the motor shaft (it presses on — no hardware is typically needed). Press the blade onto the new motor shaft in the same orientation. If the fan blade is cracked or damaged, it should be replaced separately. Installing the blade in the wrong direction will reverse the airflow direction and reduce cooling efficiency. Is this a Genuine OEM or aftermarket part? This is a Genuine OEM part manufactured by GE to factory specifications. It is the exact same DC condenser fan motor installed in compatible GE, Hotpoint, and related brand refrigerators from the factory — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance.

XPARTCO WR60X10220 Refrigerator Condenser Fan Motor The XPARTCO WR60X10220 is an aftermarket replacement condenser fan motor for GE frost-free refrigerators with a condenser coil. This motor lives in the compressor/machine compartment at the back or bottom of the refrigerator. Whenever the compressor runs, this fan runs right along with it, circulating air through the refrigerator's grille to cool both the compressor and the condenser coils as they work. It also plays a secondary role in helping evaporate excess water that collects in the drain pan. Because the condenser fan cools the mechanical side of the refrigeration system rather than circulating cold air to your food, a failing motor tends to affect the whole refrigerator's cooling capacity rather than just one compartment. The harness and plug extend approximately 8" from the motor body. Common failure causes include worn motor bearings, dust and debris buildup around the coils restricting airflow, and general electrical wear over time. Symptoms include a refrigerator that runs warm overall, a hot cabinet area near the back or bottom of the unit, a squealing or grinding noise, or the compressor running constantly as it struggles to shed heat. It directly replaces AP4298602, 1257132, AH1766247, EA1766247, PS1766247, WR60X10133, WR60X10171, WR60X10192, and SM10220. Quick Answer The XPARTCO WR60X10220 Refrigerator Condenser Fan Motor fixes GE, Hotpoint, RCA, Kenmore, Haier, Monogram, and Café frost-free refrigerators with a hot cabinet area, squealing or grinding noise, or a fridge running warm overall.

Wear work gloves. Remove the condenser fan motor cover, typically held on by two screws, to access the motor. Before condemning the motor, clear away any dust, lint, or debris built up around the condenser coils and fan blade — restricted airflow from a dirty coil produces symptoms similar to a failing motor and costs nothing to rule out. Photograph the wiring and the fan blade's position before disconnecting anything. Disconnect the power wire and the ground wire 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. If the old fan blade is seized onto the motor shaft, a firm, sudden strike (rather than steady pressure) will typically break the blade loose from the shaft without damaging the plastic blade, so it can be reused on the new motor. Mount the new WR60X10220 in the same position, reconnect the power and ground wires, and confirm the blade spins freely by hand without contacting the housing before reinstalling the fan cover. Restore power and monitor the refrigerator over the next 24 hours to confirm normal, even cooling has returned and any hot cabinet area or noise has resolved. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, work gloves. Frequently Asked Questions My refrigerator has a hot spot on the cabinet and runs warm overall. Is this the right part? Yes, this is a classic symptom pair for a failing condenser fan motor. Without proper airflow across the condenser coils and compressor, heat builds up in the machine compartment (producing that hot cabinet area) while the whole refrigeration cycle loses efficiency, which shows up as both compartments running warmer than normal rather than just one. The old fan blade is stuck on the motor shaft. How do I remove it without breaking it? A gentle, steady pull often won't budge a seized blade, but a firm, sudden strike to the blade (rather than continuous pressure) will typically pop it loose from the metal shaft without damaging the plastic blade itself, so you can reuse it on the new motor if a blade isn't included. Work carefully and support the blade so it doesn't fall and crack once it releases. Could dirty condenser coils cause the same symptoms as a bad fan motor? Yes, and it's worth checking before you buy a new motor. A condenser fan pushing air through coils caked in dust, pet hair, or debris will struggle to cool the system properly even if the motor itself is working fine. Clean the coils and the fan blade thoroughly first; if the fan still doesn't spin freely, spins with a wobble, or doesn't run at all afterward, the motor itself has failed and this replacement is the correct fix. Does this fan also affect my drain pan? Yes, indirectly. In addition to cooling the compressor and condenser coils, this fan helps evaporate excess water that collects in the drain pan beneath the refrigerator. If the fan has failed, you may notice water pooling or not evaporating as it normally would, in addition to the more obvious cooling and noise symptoms. 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 mounting configuration, dimensions, and airflow performance of the original WR60X10220 condenser fan motor used in compatible GE, Hotpoint, RCA, Kenmore, Haier, Monogram, and Café refrigerators.

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.

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.

XPARTCO 2315549 Refrigerator Evaporator Fan Motor Replaces WP2315549 The XPARTCO 2315549 is an aftermarket replacement evaporator fan motor for Whirlpool-built side-by-side refrigerators, located in the freezer section. This small motor pulls cold air off the evaporator coil and pushes it through the duct system to both the freezer and fresh food compartments. Without it circulating air, the coil itself keeps getting cold, but that cold air never reaches your food — the freezer, being closest to the coil, may hold up reasonably well for a while, but the fresh food compartment depends entirely on ducted airflow and drifts warmer and warmer as circulation weakens or stops. This motor ships complete with its wiring harness, so nothing needs to be spliced or transferred from the old unit. Common failure modes include worn motor bearings that let the blade wobble or bind, ice buildup on the coil that jams the blade, and electrical failure of the motor windings. A simple way to check before ordering: with the refrigerator unplugged, try turning the fan blade by hand — it should spin freely with no grinding or resistance. It directly replaces WP2315549, 2220569, 1193008, AP6007250, PS11740362, and EAP11740362. Quick Answer The XPARTCO 2315549 Refrigerator Evaporator Fan Motor fixes Whirlpool-built side-by-side refrigerators with uneven cooling between compartments, frost buildup on the evaporator coil, unusual humming or buzzing noise, or a fresh food section that runs warmer than the freezer. Includes wiring harness. Replaces WP2315549, 2220569, 1193008, AP6007250, PS11740362, EAP11740362. Double-check the part number carefully — this is a different motor from our similarly numbered 2315539 listing, and the two are easy to mix up. Common Problems This Part Fixes Fresh food compartment running warmer than the freezer, or warmer than it used to Uneven temperatures between shelves or between the fresh food and freezer sides Frost or ice buildup accumulating on or around the evaporator coil Unusual humming, buzzing, or grinding noise coming from inside the freezer Noise that stops when the freezer door is opened and starts again once it's closed Refrigerator running constantly as the compressor tries to compensate for poor circulation Fan blade that doesn't spin freely, or spins with noticeable resistance, when checked by hand Fridge section too warm or too cold, freezer section too warm or too cold Cross Reference Information Part numbers can change over a product's lifecycle as manufacturers update designs or release new appliance models.

Key Features Aftermarket replacement evaporator fan motor with wiring harness included — nothing to splice or transfer Circulates cold air from the evaporator coil throughout the freezer and fresh food compartments Resolves "fresh food too warm," "uneven cooling," "frost buildup," and "humming or buzzing noise" symptoms caused by fan motor failure Direct drop-in replacement matching the original mounting and blade fitment Replaces WP2315549, 2220569, 1193008, AP6007250, PS11740362, and EAP11740362 Compatible with Whirlpool, Maytag, Amana, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Admiral, Norge, Roper, Inglis, and select Kenmore refrigerators Aftermarket replacement built to OEM-equivalent quality standards Straightforward DIY repair — typically 15 to 30 minutes Product Specifications Part Number 2315549 OEM Part Number WP2315549 Production Number ESF-U2A Part Type Refrigerator Evaporator Fan Motor Condition Aftermarket Replacement Brand Whirlpool Location Freezer section, behind the rear panel near the evaporator coil Kit Contents Fan motor with wiring harness Application Side-by-Side Refrigerators Repair Difficulty Easy — 15 to 30 minutes Quantity 1 fan motor Compatible Brands Whirlpool, Maytag, Amana, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Admiral, Norge, Roper, Inglis, Kenmore Installation Notes ⚠️ Unplug Refrigerator Before Starting — Let The Freezer Thaw If Iced Over Disconnect power at the outlet before beginning, and move all food from the freezer to a cooler for the duration of the repair. Wear work gloves. Access is through the freezer's rear interior panel: remove the shelving and bins as needed, then remove the screws securing the back panel and set it aside to expose the evaporator coil and fan assembly. If you see significant frost or ice buildup 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 — ice can be masking the actual failure and can make the old motor difficult to remove cleanly. 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 carefully pull the motor and fan blade assembly free — on many models the blade is a separate piece that pulls off the motor shaft. Transfer the fan blade to the new motor if a blade isn't included, matching the original orientation. Mount the new 2315549 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 cooling has returned. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, nut driver, work gloves. Frequently Asked Questions How is this different from your 2315539 listing? The numbers look almost identical. They are genuinely different motors that happen to have nearly identical part numbers — 2315549 versus 2315539, just one transposed digit. This 2315549 motor carries production number ESF-U2A and replaces WP2315549, 2220569, and 1193008. Our separate 2315539 listing carries production number ESF-U2B and replaces a different set of numbers (2219689, 2225625, W10438708) for a different group of models. Because the numbers are so easy to mix up, we'd strongly recommend double-checking the exact number on your old motor, or your full refrigerator model number, before ordering either one. My freezer seems fine but the fresh food section is warm. Is this the fan motor? Yes, this is a very common and telling symptom pattern. The freezer compartment sits right next to the evaporator coil and can stay reasonably cold through simple proximity even with poor 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. How can I test the motor before ordering a replacement? With the refrigerator unplugged and the rear freezer panel removed, try turning the fan blade by hand. It should spin freely and smoothly with no grinding, binding, or resistance. If it doesn't turn freely, or doesn't turn at all, the motor has very likely failed. Also listen for humming or buzzing while the refrigerator is running — a motor trying and failing to turn often makes noise without actually moving air. There's a lot of frost around the fan and coil. Should I address that first? It's worth understanding which came first. Excess frost can be a cause of fan failure — a jammed, ice-bound blade can burn out the motor over time — or a result of it, since poor air circulation lets moisture condense and freeze unevenly around the coil area. Either way, thawing the ice out fully before installing the new motor makes the repair easier and lets you confirm the blade spins freely once everything is defrosted. Is this an OEM or aftermarket part? This is an aftermarket replacement part built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine Whirlpool OEM part, but is manufactured to match the mounting, wiring harness configuration, and airflow performance of the original WP2315549 evaporator fan motor used in compatible Whirlpool-built side-by-side refrigerators.

XPARTCO WR60X26866 Refrigerator Evaporator Fan Motor The XPARTCO WR60X26866 is an aftermarket replacement axial evaporator fan motor for the fresh food section of select GE French door refrigerators, including the CFE28, CFE29, CWE23, CYE22, CYE23, DFE28, DFE29, GFD28, GFE26, GFE27, GFE28, GFE29, GFS26, GFS28, GNE26, GNE29, GYE22, GYS22, PFD28, PFE28, PFE29, PWE23, PYD22, PYE22, PYE23, and ZWE23 series. The evaporator fan motor pulls air through the evaporator coils to remove heat from the circulating air inside the refrigerator. Without a functioning evaporator fan, the refrigerator compartment cannot maintain its target temperature even when the compressor and condenser are running normally — the cold air generated at the evaporator simply isn't being circulated to the food storage areas. The WR60X26866 is a DC motor rated at 13.6V DC, 0.16A, with a fan housing measuring 3-4/7"L x 2"W x 3-1/8"H, plus a multi-color wire harness and plug approximately 11-1/2" long.

Wear work gloves to protect your hands. The evaporator fan motor for the fresh food section is mounted on the back wall of the fresh food (refrigerator) compartment, behind an access panel. Take a photo of the existing fan position and wire harness routing before disconnecting. Remove the shelves and any internal components blocking access to the back wall, then remove the screws holding the rear access panel in place. Disconnect the fan motor's wire harness connector and remove the mounting screws securing the old motor. Note the fan blade orientation on the motor shaft. Install the new WR60X26866 motor assembly in the same position with the blade facing the same direction, reconnect the wiring harness, and reinstall the mounting screws and access panel. Replace the shelves and other internal components, restore power, and confirm the fan spins and the refrigerator cools properly. Allow several hours for the refrigerator to return to its set temperature before reloading with food. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, 1/4" nut driver, work gloves. Frequently Asked Questions My fridge is warm but my freezer is cold — is the evaporator fan motor the problem? Yes — this is one of the most recognizable symptoms of evaporator fan motor failure on GE French door refrigerators with a separate fresh food evaporator. The freezer side has its own cooling circuit and remains cold, while the fresh food side relies on this fan to circulate air across its evaporator coils. When the fan fails, the freezer continues working but the fresh food compartment loses its cold air supply, warming up while the freezer stays at temperature. If you also notice frost building up on the evaporator coils behind the back panel of the fresh food compartment, the fan failure is confirmed. What is the software update requirement for May 2014 – March 2015 refrigerators? GE issued a software update for certain refrigerators manufactured between May 2014 and March 2015 (serial range FF–HD) before they could properly support newer revisions of the WR60X26866 evaporator fan motor. If your refrigerator falls in this date and serial range, the control software must be updated before installing this fan motor — either by GE factory service or by using the Software Update Module part WR98R882802. Installing the new fan on an unupdated unit can result in improper performance. Check the serial number plate inside your refrigerator (typically on the left side wall) to confirm whether your unit is affected. Refrigerators built outside this range do not require the update. How do I test if the evaporator fan motor has failed? Unplug the refrigerator, then access the fan behind the rear panel of the fresh food compartment. First, try turning the fan blade by hand — if it doesn't spin freely, is stiff, or seizes, the motor bearing has failed. Next, listen during normal operation — if the motor is unusually noisy or makes a grinding sound, the bearings are worn even if it still spins. Finally, with the unit unplugged and the motor disconnected, use a multimeter on the motor windings to check for continuity. If the windings show no continuity, the motor has failed electrically. Also check for approximately 11–14V DC at the connector when the refrigerator is running — if voltage is present but the motor doesn't spin, the motor has failed. My fridge has two evaporator fans — which one does this replace? Some GE French door refrigerators have separate evaporator fan motors for the freezer and the fresh food sections. The WR60X26866 is the fresh food evaporator fan motor — it's the axial fan located behind the rear panel of the fresh food compartment, not in the freezer. If your symptom is "freezer cold, fridge warm," this is the correct part. If your symptom is "freezer warm" or "ice maker not making ice but fridge is fine," the freezer evaporator fan motor (a different part number) is more likely the cause. Confirm which compartment has the cooling problem 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 GE OEM part, but is manufactured to match the dimensions, fan housing, electrical specifications, and pre-attached wire harness configuration of the original WR60X26866 evaporator fan motor.

Wear work gloves. Locate the evaporator fan motor in the freezer compartment, typically behind an interior panel covering the evaporator coil assembly. If there's noticeable frost or ice buildup around the fan or coil, allow it to fully defrost before continuing — restricted airflow from ice is a common contributor to fan motor strain and noise. Remove the panel to access the fan motor, then disconnect the wiring harness from the old motor. Remove the mounting screws or clips securing the old motor and pull it free, along with the fan blade if it doesn't transfer separately. Install the new WR60X25858 in the same position, reconnect the wiring harness fully, and secure the mounting hardware. Reinstall the interior panel. While you're in this area, vacuuming out any accessible condenser coils is a good complementary maintenance step. Restore power and monitor the freezer's temperature over the next 24 hours to confirm normal, quiet operation and consistent cooling. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, work gloves. Frequently Asked Questions My freezer isn't cold anymore. Is this the part I need? Yes, this is one of the most common causes of a freezer that won't cool. One customer specifically reached out after their freezer wasn't cold, watched a diagnostic video explaining the evaporator fan's role, and confirmed this motor was the cause before ordering the replacement. I hear a strange noise from inside my freezer. Could this be the fan motor? Yes, this is a well-documented symptom. Noise often occurs when the fan motor itself is wearing out, or when frost or ice has built up enough to rub against the spinning fan blade. Clearing any ice buildup before replacing the motor helps you confirm whether the noise was from ice contact or the motor itself. Should I do anything else while I have the freezer open for this repair? It's a good opportunity to check for and clear any frost or ice buildup around the fan and coil area, since restricted airflow can contribute to fan strain. One customer also vacuumed out the condenser coils during the same repair, which is a reasonable companion maintenance step while everything is accessible. 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 motor design, voltage, and connection type of the original WR60X25858 evaporator fan motor used in compatible GE, Hotpoint, Haier, Monogram, Café, Profile, and Kenmore refrigerators.

WR60X10185 Genuine OEM GE Refrigerator Evaporator Fan Motor The WR60X10185 is a genuine GE OEM 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. Quick Answer The WR60X10185 Genuine OEM GE 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).

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.

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 a genuine OEM part, manufactured by GE to factory specifications — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance. It matches 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 DA31-00334C Refrigerator Evaporator Fan Motor The XPARTCO DA31-00334C is an aftermarket replacement evaporator fan motor for Samsung bottom-mount and side-by-side refrigerators. This small brushless DC (BLDC) motor sits behind the freezer's rear panel, directly in front of the evaporator coil, and its job is to pull cold air off that coil and push it through the duct system into both the freezer and fresh food compartments. Without it circulating air, the coil itself keeps getting cold, but that cold air never reaches your food — the freezer may still work reasonably well since it sits closer to the coil, while the fresh food side drifts warmer and warmer since it depends entirely on ducted airflow from the back. Rated at 12V DC, 2.5W, 0.12A, running at approximately 1,870 RPM. As a brushless design, this motor has no physical brushes to wear out, so failure typically comes from a worn bearing that lets the blade wobble or bind, a winding that has burned out electrically, or a blade that has become jammed by a chunk of built-up frost or freezer debris. It directly replaces DA31-00287B, DA31-00334A, DA31-00305A, DA96-00968A, AP6803162, 3954921, AP5948644, PS9494284, EAP9494284, PS12590897, and EAP12590897.

Wear work gloves. Access is through the freezer's rear interior panel: remove the shelving and bins as needed, then remove the screws securing the back panel and set it aside to expose the evaporator coil and fan assembly. If you see significant frost or ice buildup 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, since ice can be masking the actual point of failure and can also make the old motor difficult to remove cleanly. 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 carefully pull the motor and fan blade assembly free — on many models the blade is a separate piece that pulls off the motor shaft. Transfer the fan blade to the new motor if it isn't included, or install the new blade supplied with this motor, matching the original orientation. Mount the new DA31-00334C 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 cooling has returned. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, nut driver, work gloves. Frequently Asked Questions My freezer seems fine but the fresh food section is warm. Is this really the fan motor? Yes, this is a very common and telling symptom pattern. The freezer compartment sits right next to the evaporator coil and can stay reasonably cold through simple proximity even with poor 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, while the freezer may seem to lag only slightly behind. I hear a grinding or buzzing noise that stops when I open the freezer door. What does that mean? This is a classic symptom of a worn fan motor bearing or a blade that's catching on built-up frost. Opening the door often triggers the refrigerator's internal light switch or door sensor, which can cut power to the fan momentarily — the noise stops because the fan stops spinning, then resumes once the door closes and the fan restarts. If you can see or reach the fan blade with the freezer open, check whether it spins freely and smoothly by hand; a blade that wobbles, binds, or contacts the housing points to the motor as the cause. There's a lot of frost around the back panel of my freezer. Should I fix that before replacing the fan? It's worth understanding which came first. Excess frost can be a cause of fan failure — a jammed blade can burn out the motor over time — or a result of it, since poor air circulation lets moisture condense and freeze unevenly around the coil area. Either way, thawing the ice out fully before you install the new motor makes the repair easier and lets you confirm the blade spins freely once everything is defrosted, rather than immediately jamming again on refrozen ice. Do I need to transfer the fan blade from my old motor? It depends on what's included with your specific order — check whether a blade came with your new motor before removing the old one. If a blade is not included, the blade from your original motor typically pulls off the shaft and can be transferred over. Photograph the blade's orientation on the shaft before removing it so you can reinstall it the same way; an improperly oriented blade can affect airflow or contact the housing. Is this an OEM or aftermarket part? This is an aftermarket replacement part built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine Samsung OEM part, but is manufactured to match the electrical specifications (12V DC, 2.5W, 0.12A, ~1,870 RPM), brushless motor design, and mounting configuration of the original DA31-00334C evaporator fan motor used in compatible Samsung and Kenmore refrigerators.

XPARTCO DA81-06013A Refrigerator Evaporator Fan Motor The XPARTCO DA81-06013A is an aftermarket replacement evaporator fan motor compatible with a wide range of Samsung French door and bottom-mount refrigerators across the RF18, RF22, RF23, RF24, RF25, RF26, RF28, RF30, and RF34 series. The evaporator fan motor is the "heart" of the refrigerator's cooling cycle — it pulls air across the cold evaporator coils in the freezer section and circulates it throughout the freezer and fresh food compartments. This constant airflow is what keeps temperatures even and food fresh. When the fan motor fails, cooling efficiency drops, compartments run warm, frost can build up on the coils, and the ice maker may stop working properly. This is an axial evaporator fan and motor assembly with a 3-wire harness. Electrical specs: 12V DC, 0.16A. Frame dimensions: 3-5/8"L x 1-3/4"W x 3-5/8"H, with the harness and plug extending 10-3/4" from the frame. Black with a multi-colored harness, plastic and metal construction. It directly replaces DA31-00287A, U92C12MS1B3-52, 3612JL-04W-S49, 3967908, AP5914786, EAP9603956, PD00031112, and PS9603956. Important: Samsung uses several different evaporator fan motors across its refrigerator lineup with different connectors and voltages — always match your old motor's part number and connector before ordering. Installs in 30–45 minutes with basic hand tools.

This DA81-06013A is a 12V DC motor with a 3-wire harness. Before ordering, compare your old motor's part number and connector to this part — a similar-looking motor with a different connector or voltage (such as the BLDC DA31-00342A used in some RS-series models) is NOT interchangeable. Contact our support team with your model number if you're unsure.

Wear work gloves to protect your hands. The evaporator fan motor is located in the freezer section behind the rear access panel. Remove all freezer shelves, drawers, and the ice maker (if equipped) to clear access to the back wall. If there's frost or ice buildup on the rear panel or coils, allow the freezer to thaw completely before continuing — never chip or pry ice off the evaporator coils, as the aluminum fins damage easily. Remove the screws securing the rear evaporator access panel and lift it away to expose the fan motor. Photograph the wiring harness connection and fan motor orientation before disconnecting anything. Before installing, compare the new motor's connector and part number to your old one — they must match. Disconnect the wiring harness by gently pulling the plug, and remove the two mounting screws holding the fan motor assembly in place. Remove the old motor. Install the new DA81-06013A in the same position and orientation, secure with the two mounting screws, and reconnect the wiring harness by firmly pushing the plug in until it seats. Confirm the fan blade spins freely by hand without rubbing on any surrounding surface. Reinstall the rear access panel, shelves, drawers, and ice maker. Plug the refrigerator back in and allow several hours for the unit to return to its set temperature before reloading with food. No software or firmware update is required. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver (or electric screwdriver), work gloves. Frequently Asked Questions How do I know if my evaporator fan motor has failed? The most common signs are a refrigerator or freezer that's too warm despite the compressor running, poor or uneven cooling, and frost building up on the evaporator coils because air isn't being circulated. You may also hear unusual noise (grinding, squealing, or clicking) from the freezer compartment as the motor bearings fail or the blade rubs on accumulated frost. To confirm: with the refrigerator running, open the freezer and listen/look for the fan behind the rear panel — if it's not spinning while the compressor runs, or it's making noise, the motor has likely failed. You can also test the motor with a 12V DC power source; a working motor will spin when powered. Samsung has several similar-looking fan motors — how do I know this is the right one? This is the critical thing to get right. Samsung uses several different evaporator fan motors across its refrigerator lineup, and while they look similar, they differ in voltage and connector style and are NOT interchangeable. The DA81-06013A is a 12V DC motor with a 3-wire harness, used across the RF18/RF22/RF23/RF24/RF25/RF26/RF28/RF30/RF34 French door and bottom-mount series. A different motor — such as the BLDC DA31-00342A used in some RS-series side-by-side models — has a different connector and won't work here. Before ordering, find the part number printed on your old motor, or match your refrigerator's model number against the compatibility list. When in doubt, send us your model number and we'll confirm. Do I need to update any software or firmware after installing this? No — this is a simple mechanical fan motor with no electronics that require programming. Unlike some Samsung refrigerator control boards or main PCBs, the evaporator fan motor is a direct drop-in replacement: disconnect the old one, connect the new one, and it works immediately. There's no pairing, calibration, or firmware update needed. Just make sure the connector matches and the fan blade spins freely after installation. Should I defrost the freezer before installing this? If there's frost or ice buildup on the rear freezer panel or evaporator coils, yes — clear it before installing the new motor. Leave the freezer empty and unplugged with the door open for several hours (longer for heavy ice) to let everything thaw naturally, with towels at the base to catch melt water. Never chip or pry ice off the evaporator coils with a tool — the aluminum fins are delicate and a damaged coil is a far more expensive repair. If heavy frost keeps returning after the fan motor is replaced, the defrost system (defrost heater, sensor, or control) should be investigated as a secondary issue. Is this an OEM or aftermarket part? This is an aftermarket replacement part built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine Samsung OEM part, but is manufactured to match the electrical specifications (12V DC, 0.16A), 3-wire harness, connector, frame dimensions (3-5/8"L x 1-3/4"W x 3-5/8"H), and cooling function of the original DA81-06013A evaporator fan motor used in compatible Samsung French door and bottom-mount refrigerators.
