FAQs

This fan motor is used on many Whirlpool-built refrigerators and is commonly associated with Whirlpool, Kenmore, KitchenAid, Maytag, Amana, Estate, Roper, and Inglis models. It is often found in side-by-side and some top-freezer refrigerators, including certain Kenmore 106-series units. Because fitment varies by full model number, the safest way to confirm is to match your refrigerator model and the original motor part number.
Known replacements and cross-references for this evaporator fan motor include 2315539, WP2315539, 2219689, 2225625, W10438708, WP2315539VP, AP6007247, PS11740359, WP2320109, and ESF-U2B.
The evaporator fan motor is located at the back of the freezer compartment and circulates air over the evaporator coils. That moving air helps carry cold air through the freezer and into the fresh-food section. If the motor stops or slows down, the freezer may still seem somewhat cold while the refrigerator section becomes too warm.
Common signs include a warm refrigerator section, reduced airflow from the vents, a freezer that is colder than the fresh-food side, squealing or grinding noises from the freezer area, or a fan that does not run even when the door switch is closed. Frost buildup around the evaporator cover can also affect airflow, so it is worth checking for a defrost problem before replacing the motor.
Installation is typically a moderate refrigerator repair. In most cases you will need to unplug the refrigerator, remove freezer shelves or bins, take off the rear interior freezer panel, disconnect the old motor, and transfer the fan blade if required. A multi-bit screwdriver is commonly needed. Many DIY repairs take about 30 to 60 minutes, depending on how much ice or shelving must be removed.
Before installation, unplug the refrigerator and inspect the fan blade for cracks, rubbing, or ice obstruction. Check the wiring connector for heat damage or looseness, and make sure the door switch is working, since some models stop the fan when the door is open. It is also a good idea to inspect the evaporator area for heavy frost buildup, because a defrost-system issue can mimic a bad fan motor.
