Refrigerator Evaporator Fan Motor
November 20, 2019|trtribble, Snohomish, WA

No instructions were included with the product. The ground wire connection is in a different location than the original, so the wire was barely long enough to connect. Still a relatively easy install for someone with modest mechanical abilities. I disassembled more than necessary before I found the location of the motor.

Duration of InstallationLess than 30 minutes

I would not buy this part again
January 08, 2026|N/A, Saint Joseph, MO

Wire terminals are in the wrong position compared to old motor and it does not come with any way to mount it where the old motor mounts. Had to drill off old mounts and drill bigger holes in 2 locations to be able to use the old motor mounts to get it to mount in the position that the old motor was in.

Sadly, missing the attachment arms on the motor
January 05, 2026|Ted, Philadelphia Pennsylvania

Unable to install the new motor in the Refrigerator. New supply manufactured the motor WITHOUT the arms to connect to the appliance. Look at your picture of the article. No attachment arms. OLDER SUPPLY DO COME WITH THE ATTACHMENT ARMS. Thank you
