5901JA1021A Genuine OEM LG Refrigerator Evaporator Fan Blade
The 5901JA1021A is a genuine LG OEM evaporator fan blade for LG and select Kenmore refrigerators. This is the plastic blade itself — not the motor — that mounts onto the evaporator fan motor's shaft and physically moves air through the evaporator fins and interior compartment as it spins, which is what carries cooled air to the fresh food and freezer sections and helps maintain efficient, even cooling.
Over time, the blade can crack, chip, or warp from ice contact, age, or physical damage, even while the motor underneath it is still working perfectly fine. A damaged fan blade typically shows up as reduced airflow and less effective cooling, a wobbling or unbalanced sound as the fan spins, or visible cracks and missing pieces on the blade itself. Since this is the blade only, it's a straightforward and inexpensive fix when the motor is still good but the blade has failed. It directly replaces 5901JJ1005A, AP4457221, 1268187, AH3528674, EA3528674, and PS3528674.
Quick Answer
The 5901JA1021A Genuine OEM LG Refrigerator Evaporator Fan Blade fixes LG and select Kenmore refrigerators with reduced cooling airflow, a wobbling or unbalanced fan noise, or a cracked/chipped/missing fan blade. Replaces 5901JJ1005A, AP4457221, 1268187, AH3528674, EA3528674, PS3528674. This is the blade only, not the motor — if your fan motor itself has failed (won't spin, no power, electrical fault), you need a motor replacement instead, such as our EAU61524007 listing.
Common Problems This Part Fixes
Reduced airflow and less effective cooling despite the fan motor running
Wobbling, unbalanced, or rattling sound as the fan spins
Visible cracks, chips, or missing sections on the fan blade

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 fan. 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 old blade's orientation on the motor shaft before removing it. Gently pull the old fan blade off the motor shaft — it typically presses on and off without tools. Press the new 5901JA1021A blade onto the same motor shaft in the same orientation, seating it fully. Confirm the blade spins freely by hand without wobbling or contacting the housing before reassembling the back panel. Restore power and monitor cooling performance over the next 24 hours to confirm normal, even airflow has returned. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver (for the rear panel), work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if I need just the blade or the whole motor?
Check whether the motor is actually turning. If you can see or hear the motor shaft spinning but the blade is cracked, wobbling, or missing pieces, this blade-only replacement is the correct and less expensive fix. If the motor itself isn't turning at all — no spin, no hum, or an electrical fault — the motor has failed and needs to be replaced instead, which is a different part from this blade.
My fan makes a wobbling or rattling noise. Is that the blade?
It's a strong possibility, especially if the motor itself sounds otherwise normal. A cracked, chipped, or unevenly worn blade can throw off the fan's balance as it spins, producing a rattling or wobbling sound distinct from the grinding noise typically associated with a failing motor bearing.
Do I need any tools to replace this blade?
No, in most cases. The blade presses onto and off of the motor shaft without tools — you'll just need a screwdriver to access the rear panel covering the evaporator fan area, but the blade swap itself is tool-free.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is a genuine OEM part, manufactured by LG to factory specifications — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance. It matches the original blade design and motor shaft fit of the evaporator fan blade originally installed in your refrigerator.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Refrigerator Before Starting Unplug the refrigerator before beginning. 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 HS810 Refrigerator 3-in-1 Hard Start Kit 1/12 to 1/5 HP 120V
The XPARTCO XPHS810 is a universal 3-in-1 hard start kit that combines a solid-state starting relay, a start capacitor, and thermal overload protection into a single prewired unit for refrigerator and freezer compressors rated 1/12 to 1/5 HP at 120V (110–125VAC). It's designed as a direct equivalent to the widely used Supco RCO810 and similar kits, giving a struggling compressor extra starting torque to overcome internal friction and gas pressure at startup — commonly used to fix the classic "click-buzz-click" no-start symptom without replacing the entire compressor.
The kit is fully prewired with color-coded leads (typically black = Common, white = Start, red = Run) and mounts directly onto the compressor's terminal pins, with instructions printed on the unit itself. It directly replaces Supco RCO810, URCO810, URC0810, RC0810, RC100, TJ90RCO810, AP4503019, ERP810, ERPU810, HS8, HS810, HS81, PCS810, and Mars 32781. Installs in 15–30 minutes with basic hand tools.
Quick Answer
The XPARTCO HS810 3-in-1 Hard Start Kit fixes refrigerators and freezers whose compressor makes a repeated "click-buzz-click" sound and fails to start, or that shut off on thermal overload during startup. Combines relay, start capacitor, and overload protector in one prewired unit for 1/12 to 1/5 HP compressors, 120V, 3.5A RLA. Replaces Supco RCO810, URCO810, RC0810, RC100, TJ90RCO810, AP4503019, ERP810, HS8, HS810, HS81, PCS810, Mars 32781. Do not install on LG linear/inverter compressors — see Installation Notes.
Common Problems This Part Fixes
Compressor makes a repeated "click-buzz-click" noise and fails to start
Refrigerator or freezer runs warm because the compressor won't stay running
Compressor hums but doesn't start, then trips off on overload
Refrigerator cycles on and off rapidly without reaching temperature
Older or worn compressor that starts hard, especially after a power outage
⚠ Capacitor Hazard — Read Before Servicing This kit contains a start capacitor, which can store a dangerous electrical charge even after the refrigerator is unplugged. Always disconnect power before servicing, and discharge the capacitor safely (using an insulated-handle resistor tool or by briefly shorting the terminals with an insulated screwdriver) before handling it. Never touch capacitor terminals with bare hands. If you are not comfortable working around stored electrical charge, have this repair performed by a qualified technician.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Refrigerator Before Starting — Discharge Capacitor Safely Disconnect power before beginning. Before touching any wiring, check your compressor's data label to confirm it is NOT a linear/inverter/BLDC compressor — this kit is not compatible with those and can damage the inverter board if connected. Access the compressor compartment, typically at the rear or bottom of the unit. Remove the existing relay/overload assembly by gently pulling it straight off the compressor terminal pins — do not force or twist. Use a multimeter to confirm which pins are Common (C), Start (S), and Run (R) if not already labeled. Connect the hard start kit's wires to the matching pins. Wire the kit's main power leads into the refrigerator's supply wiring using wire nuts, following the included diagram. Secure the kit with zip ties or its mounting strap to prevent vibration damage during compressor operation. Restore power and confirm the compressor starts smoothly without repeated clicking. Tools needed: nut driver or screwdriver, digital multimeter, wire nuts, insulated screwdriver (for capacitor discharge).
Frequently Asked Questions
My compressor makes a clicking or buzzing sound and won't start — will this fix it?
A hard start kit resolves this in many cases, especially on older or worn compressors that struggle to overcome internal gas pressure at startup. However, "click-buzz-click" can also indicate a failing compressor winding or a compressor nearing end of life. If the hard start kit doesn't resolve the issue, the compressor itself may need replacement — a hard start kit can extend a marginal compressor's life but can't revive one with failed internal windings.
Can I use this on any refrigerator?
This kit works on standard PSC and RSIR compressors within the 1/12 to 1/5 HP range at 120V. It is NOT compatible with LG linear/inverter compressors or any variable-speed inverter-driven compressor — connecting it to one of those can destroy the inverter control board. Check your compressor's label for "Inverter," "Linear," "BLDC," or "Digital" before ordering.
Do I need to remove my existing start capacitor or relay first?
Yes — remove the old relay/overload assembly from the compressor terminal pins before installing this kit. The XPHS810 is designed to work with or without an existing separate run capacitor remaining in the circuit, but the old start relay and any old start capacitor should be removed and replaced by this kit, not left in place alongside it.
Is this safe to install myself?
Many DIYers install hard start kits successfully, but this repair involves a capacitor that can hold a dangerous electrical charge even after the unit is unplugged, plus correctly identifying compressor terminals. If you're not comfortable working around stored electrical charge or don't have a multimeter to confirm terminal identification, we'd recommend having a qualified technician perform this repair.

Genuine OEM W11844302 Refrigerator Filter Head
The W11844302 is a genuine OEM water filter head assembly for Whirlpool refrigerators, and the current part number that supersedes the earlier W11808483. The filter head is the fitting inside the refrigerator that holds the water filter and routes incoming water through it to the water dispenser and ice maker. When the head cracks, leaks, or no longer seats the filter correctly, you can see water at the filter, lose flow to the dispenser or ice maker, or find the filter will not lock in or seal.
This is a genuine OEM part from Whirlpool, not an aftermarket equivalent, so the fit and the filter connection match what came with the refrigerator. It is the filter head only. The water filter itself is a separate part and is sold separately.

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. Depending on your refrigerator model, the fresh-food temperature sensor is typically located behind the air tower or damper assembly on the rear interior wall of the refrigerator compartment; the freezer temperature sensor is typically located behind the rear freezer access panel near the evaporator coils. Confirm which sensor location matches your symptom and the parts diagram for your specific model before starting. Remove all shelves, drawers, and any items blocking access to the sensor location. Remove the screws holding the air tower/damper cover (fresh food side) or rear freezer access panel to expose the sensor. Photograph the sensor position, wire routing, and connector before removing. Disconnect the wire connector (gently — the connector can be fragile) and release the sensor from its mounting clip. Fully insert the new 240597220 sensor probe into the card slot (no exposure) and secure with the mounting clip. Reconnect the wire connector — plug wiring terminals tightly to avoid poor contact. Use cable ties to secure any loose wire routing as before. Reinstall the cover or panel, replace the shelves and drawers, and plug the refrigerator back in. Allow several hours for the refrigerator to return to its set temperature before reloading with food. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, cable ties, multimeter (for testing), work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does OP error code mean on my Frigidaire refrigerator?
The OP error code (Open) indicates the control board is detecting an open circuit on a temperature sensor input — meaning the sensor is failing to send a resistance signal, either because the sensor itself has failed open internally, the wire has broken, or the connector isn't seated. Replacing the temperature sensor typically resolves the code when the sensor itself is the cause. If the code persists after replacement, check the wire harness between the sensor and the control board for damage, and confirm the connector is fully seated. If the OP code appears alongside other symptoms like frost buildup and cooling issues that persist after sensor replacement, the defrost temperature sensor (on the Harness-Low Side, a different part number) may also need to be replaced, or the main control board may be at fault.
How do I test if the temperature sensor has failed?
Unplug the refrigerator, disconnect the sensor's wire connector, and set your multimeter to resistance mode. At room temperature (approximately 25°C / 77°F), a working NTC thermistor should read approximately 10K Ohms. If the sensor reads 0 ohms, it has shorted internally. If it reads infinite resistance (open circuit, often shown as "OL" on the multimeter), the sensor has failed open. If it reads significantly off from 10K (for example 8.4K or 5K at room temp), the sensor has drifted and is no longer providing accurate readings — replacement is recommended. Any of these results confirms the sensor needs replacement.
My refrigerator has multiple temperature sensors — which one do I replace?
Frigidaire refrigerators typically use multiple temperature sensors: one in the fresh food compartment (behind the air tower/damper), one in the freezer compartment (near the evaporator coils), and often a separate defrost temperature sensor on the Harness-Low Side. The 240597203 is used as the fresh food or freezer compartment temperature sensor. If your symptom is "fresh food too warm" or "freezer over-freezing," the fresh food sensor is the likely candidate. If your symptom is "freezer icing up despite defrost heater working," the defrost temperature sensor may be the culprit — a different part number. Check your refrigerator's parts diagram to confirm the correct sensor location for your specific symptom.
Does this sensor fit my Kenmore refrigerator?
On many Kenmore refrigerators, yes — Sears sells Kenmore-branded refrigerators that are manufactured by Frigidaire/Electrolux, Whirlpool, LG, and Samsung. The 240597203 sensor fits Kenmore refrigerators with model numbers beginning with the 253, 106, or 795 prefixes that are Frigidaire/Electrolux-built. Kenmore refrigerators built by other manufacturers (Whirlpool, LG, Samsung) use different sensors. Check the first three digits of your Kenmore model number — if it's 253, 106, or 795 and falls within the compatible model list, this is the correct part.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is a Genuine OEM part manufactured by Frigidaire/Electrolux to factory specifications. It is the exact same temperature sensor installed in compatible Frigidaire, Electrolux, Kenmore, Crosley, White-Westinghouse, Kelvinator, Gibson, Tappan, Viking, and Ikea refrigerators from the factory — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance.

XPARTCO 297259515 Refrigerator Start Relay & 297286803 Capacitor
The XPARTCO 297259515 kit bundles the compressor start relay and the matching run capacitor for Frigidaire, Kenmore, Crosley, Kelvinator, Gibson, Tappan, and Westinghouse refrigerators and freezers. These two components mount together at the compressor and work as a team every time the compressor cycles on: the start relay delivers the initial electrical boost needed to get the compressor's start winding moving, and the run capacitor helps the compressor motor start and run efficiently once it's going. Because they sit side by side on the same compressor terminals and tend to be diagnosed together, replacing both at once is the standard, most reliable fix rather than gambling on which single component has failed.
The classic failure symptom for this pair is unmistakable: a repeated clicking sound from the compressor area as the relay tries and fails to start the compressor, paired with a refrigerator and freezer that are both running too warm because the compressor never actually starts. Real-world repair accounts back this up — technicians troubleshooting a clicking-but-not-starting compressor commonly find both the start relay and run capacitor bad at the same time, which is exactly why they're sold together as a kit. It directly replaces, for the relay: 297259502, 297259510, PS11728176, 4378266, AP5986809, EAP11728176; and for the capacitor: AP5306470, 216985001, 297286804, 1465079, 1940424, 215329902, 218909915, 7216985001, 7218909915, AH3495561, EA3495561, PS3495561, and EAP3495561.
Quick Answer
The XPARTCO 297259515 Refrigerator Start Relay & Capacitor Kit fixes Frigidaire, Kenmore, Crosley, Kelvinator, Gibson, Tappan, and Westinghouse refrigerators and freezers that won't start cooling, run too warm in both compartments, or make a repeated clicking sound from the compressor area. Includes start relay (297259515) and run capacitor (297286803). Capacitors store a dangerous electrical charge even after power is disconnected — always discharge before handling.

Note on capacitor voltage: Manufacturer-facing sources disagree on this capacitor's voltage rating — some list it as 15µF/120V, others as 15µF/250V. Before installing, check the voltage printed directly on your original capacitor's body and confirm the new capacitor's printed rating matches or exceeds it. We're not publishing a single voltage figure here rather than risk stating the wrong one — contact our support team if you'd like help confirming the correct rating for your model.
Installation Notes
⚠️ Danger — The Run Capacitor Stores A Dangerous Electrical Charge Shut off power to the refrigerator at the outlet before beginning. The run capacitor stores an electrical charge even after power has been disconnected, and that charge can deliver a serious shock. Before touching the capacitor's terminals, discharge it by shorting the two terminals together using an insulated-handle screwdriver, or a proper capacitor discharge tool with a resistor. Never short the terminals with a bare metal tool held with your bare hand.
⚠️ Unplug Refrigerator Before Starting — Both Components Mount To The Compressor Disconnect power at the outlet before beginning, and move perishable food to a cooler for the duration of the repair. Shut off the water supply as well if your model has an ice maker or water dispenser. Wear work gloves and safety glasses. Have an assistant help pull the refrigerator away from the wall for access to the rear panel. Locate the compressor in the machine compartment at the back or bottom of the unit, and find the start relay and run capacitor mounted directly to its terminals. Photograph the wiring and orientation of both components before removing anything. After confirming the capacitor is fully discharged, disconnect the old relay and capacitor from the compressor terminals, noting each terminal position. Install the new 297259515 relay and 297286803 capacitor from this kit in the same orientation, seating each firmly onto the correct compressor terminals. Reassemble any panels or retainers you removed, restore the water supply if applicable, and push the refrigerator back into place. Restore power and monitor the refrigerator over the next few hours to confirm the compressor starts reliably and both compartments begin cooling. Tools needed: 1/4" nut driver or socket, 1/2" wrench or adjustable wrench, needle nose pliers, flat-head screwdriver, insulated-handle screwdriver or capacitor discharge tool, work gloves, safety glasses.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I really need both the relay and the capacitor, or could just one be bad?
Either could technically be the sole cause, but in practice, technicians troubleshooting a compressor that clicks but won't start commonly find both the start relay and run capacitor have failed together — they sit on the same terminals under the same electrical stress every time the compressor cycles. Replacing both at once avoids having to open the compressor compartment a second time if the remaining original part fails shortly after.
I hear a repeated clicking sound from the back of my refrigerator, but it's not cooling. Is this the kit I need?
Yes, this is a textbook symptom for this exact pair of components. The clicking is the sound of the relay repeatedly attempting to engage the compressor's start winding and failing, often because the run capacitor isn't providing the boost the compressor needs to actually get moving. If both compartments are also warm, that confirms the compressor isn't starting at all.
Why doesn't this listing state a single voltage rating for the capacitor?
We found genuinely conflicting information across manufacturer-facing sources for this specific capacitor — some list it at 120V, others at 250V — and we'd rather flag that honestly than publish a number we can't fully verify. Before installing, check the rating printed directly on your original capacitor's body, and contact our support team if you'd like help confirming the correct value for your model.
My refrigerator stopped suddenly during normal operation. Could this kit be the cause?
Yes, a failing run capacitor or start relay can cause a refrigerator to stop suddenly, not just fail to start from cold. If your unit was running fine and then abruptly stopped cooling, checking these two components at the compressor is a reasonable next step alongside checking for tripped breakers or other obvious causes.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket kit?
This is an aftermarket replacement kit built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine Frigidaire OEM kit, but each component is manufactured to match the electrical specifications and terminal fit of the original 297259515 start relay and 297286803 run capacitor used in compatible Frigidaire, Kenmore, Crosley, Kelvinator, Gibson, Tappan, and Westinghouse refrigerators and freezers.
