Refrigerator Condenser Fan Motor Assembly EAU62025701

Installing the fan is a little tricky finding just the right way to slide it in. Running the wires a bit tricky due to limited space. All in all about a 20 minute job. Part worked well and now my fridge is happy!

Condenser fan wireing runs across the rear of condenser, made job alot simpler by rerouting wireing safely across front of condenser. Saved a lot work and time.

Part was great, no issue. However installation was not as Service Manual describes. To remove the fan assembly you need 2 remove the condenser because there’s two lines in the way if the fan mount, not “a couple screws” as the manual describes. “Screw” that- it took 2-3 hrs of squirming, twisting, cautioness, swearing, and a myriad of screwdrivers to get the bracket loose, move it into 3 different angled positions to get the fan holder unscrewed (4) from the bracket, and then the fan itself unscrewed (4) from the fan mount. All with as much pleasantly as hanging upside down installing an “8 track” under your dashboard. meanwhile having to remove/move aside some item that looks like it shouldn’t have been moved (copper sensor tubing and whatnot running to it.) And THEN reassemble while dropping silicone rubber grommet isolators, TINY fan screws, mounting screws etc into the abyss of the condensate pan and rolling under the condenser. This particular LG model is a BEAR, not as YouTube shows for LG fan replacement. Then figuring out there’s NO WAY to run the 3-wire fan cable and HUGE plug in the same location as the original (behind the condenser) so had to clip off the old just to get it out from the fraction of a mm space behind the coils and pull it out. Then find another safe route to run the new cable. “Not fun but she’s done.”

20 min install. Do not try to remove entire fan frame, it's blocked by the refrigerant tubing connecting the condenser to the coils. Snip the zip-tie to release old fan motor wiring from fan frame. Snip the wire off the old fan motor. Unplug fan wiring from socket on right side of condenser coils. Pull the old wire out from right side of coils(it's routed behind coils) and discard. Using a very short screwdriver, remove the 4 screws from the rear of fan motor (at the hub). This releases the old fan motor & blades from the frame. Discard old motor & blades. Attach new fan motor/blades using the 4 screws removed earlier. Route the wiring above the condenser coils, to the socket and plug in (it's too hard to route wire behind coils like factory install).

Muy difícil de instalar, los que arman los refrigeradores hacen las cosas complicadas para que uno les llame, pero con paciencia es posible se tiene que quitar el condensador para poder liberar el cable.

Wiring was difficult to access. Rerouted and it worked!

I’m sure this fan is fine but The website said this was the fan for my model of fridge but it is not. My model is 79574025412. I actually needed EAU63103301. Wasted a week on the wrong part. Been waiting a week on the correct part and still don’t have it.

The fan is making noise and needs to be replaced before it fails. However, the cord is routed behind the condenser coils. The fan itself is locked behind two cooling lines. It is a nightmare to address.
