Motor-evap works great at a reasonable price!
We ordered our motor-evap at 3:45 p.m. on a Saturday and received an email that it would arrive on the following Tuesday. Unfortunately, we had a terrible ice and snowstorm that week with no mail or other deliveries for two days and the part did not arrive until Friday morning. We understood the delay and were thankful that we could use our garage as a walk-in cooler during that time since the refrigerator wasn't cooling! We would gladly use PartSelect again.

The part looked different but fit right into place. The fridge is cold again and the freezer works better also. Found a huge ice block around piping and thermostat. Melted it before swapping motors. Taking doors off of freezer most difficult part.

freezer worked fine, refrigerator would not cool
with the freezer working I knew the compressor was working. I confirmed that the actuator door in the refrigerator was working but no air was blowing out. The hardest part was removing all the freezer drawer components and the ice maker so I could remove the panel in the back covering the evaporator motor. A quick resistance check of

The motor I received did not look like the one I was replacing, but in fit in place and bolted right in. They provided an adapter wire to connect the wiring. All in all it was a fairly easy job. The video I followed was very helpful.

Refridgerator was not cooling as cold as normal
Removed the freezer door, by loosening 4 screws and pulling upwards to disengage door from frame. Removed the top basket by pulling up on both slides on the gear shaft sides, note they have retaining tabs you must push in. once the slide / guards are up the top basket comes out. Remove the bottom basket. Remove to angled screws on the top

Note I cleaned mine while it was out with vinegar to remove the mineral build up on it. Remove the screws in the back panel, and pull it forwards. The top vent has 2 clips that hold it in and you will need to remove it prior to fully removing the plate. The plug for the icemaker needs to be removed also. Pull the back plate out. Once the plate is out you can see the fan and access it. Unplug the clips that hold the wiring harness secure. 2 screws to remove the fan assembly. Once fan assembly is out, disassemble it, then reverse assemble it with new parts and fire it up. Mine took right off and running like its brand new.

No evap. fan function, freezer cold, refrigerator not cold.
My unit was a bottom mounted freezer, the door assembly and side out rack unit took more time then the repair. Once you take the back panel off it is just a matter of unplugging and two screws. Easier to pull fan mounting housing out to replace motor. Be careful its all plastic, pot off fan blades off shaft, pot out old motor, pot in new

Put back panel, rack and door assembly back in and you are friggen again, once you plug it in of course.

My bottom freezer stays cold but refrigerator stays warm . I have cover off of motor evaporator fan and when I plug in it doesn’t move. Does it need new motor.
For model number Mbf2258xew1
Hi Michael,
Thank you for your question. If your refrigerator is too warm, there are some parts that you will need to check to see which one is causing the issue. You will need to check the capacitor, the electronic control board, the damper assembly and the evaporator fan motor and fan blade. We have included some links that you may reference on how to check these parts and some others as well. Once you have determined the part you need, please feel free to call customer service. We are open 7 days a week and anyone will be happy to assist you. We look forward to hearing from you!
Good morning. I ordered an evaporator motor, part number W11024089, from you to replace the original. Is this the right one? Mine is a 13062901. It said it cross ref with it. Will my original fan work on this motor ? Thank you.
For model number KBFS25EVMS3
Hi Cory,
Thank you for your question. Part number 13062901 has been replaced with part number W11024089.
The part is listed under your model number and it is designed to work with your refrigerator. Your fan blade will work with the new motor. If you need a new fan blade, the part number for it is WP2169142. I hope this helps. Thank you and have a great day!

New evap-motor where to place ground wire
For model number MBR2258XES3
Hello Larry, thank you for your question. There should be a terminal on the motor itself that the ground wire is attached to, then the screw goes through the motor mounting bracket to hold it into place. This video should provide some help on how to complete that repair. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r7zEunxy70Y

I understand i need a new evaporator motor with a thermostat. Can you tell me all the parts i need to replace this?
For model number WRB322DMBM00
Hi Karen,
Thank you for your question. The part number listed under your model number for the evaporator fan motor is PS11773024. The part number listed for the thermistor is PS2003772. If you would like to place an order for these parts, you may order them either online or by calling our customer service line and anyone will be happy to assist you. We hope this helps! If you have any questions, please let us know.
The evaporator motor PS11773024 I bought for a Maytag MBF2258WES3 refrigerator did not come with the wiring harness attached to the posts on the motor. Does it make a difference which wire goes to which post? It's a different motor than the original, which was hard-wired. Not the ground wire, I can see where that is supposed to go.
For model number PS11773024
Hi Steve, thank you for contacting us. The evaporator motor, part number PS11773024 comes with all the appropriate wiring that will attach motor terminals. You need to attach the right wire to the right terminal as it does makes a difference. The ground wire should be connected to the ground terminal. We have attached a relevant video that will help you install the wires with the right motor terminal. We hope this helps, good luck with the repair!

My refrigerator is not cooling, freezer works, but seems to be frosting over the copper line as well. Trying to find the correct evaporator motor, and other suggestions for copper line frosting over. Part number on my evaporator fan motor says W10492176.
For model number WRB322DMBM00
Hi Wendy, thank you for the question. The evaporator fan motor for your model is part number PS11773024. For the frosting issue, we would suggest checking the defrost thermostat first. If it is fine, the issue could be with the defrost heater, part number PS11738607. We hope this sorts out your problem!
Water drips down out of freezer onto floor. Do you think evap motor went out.
Part select ps11773024 . Are do i have a clogged line?
For model number 596.72003016
Hello Shane, thank you for contacting us. Mostly, a clogged drain tube causes the water to back up and drip out of the freezer. Also, check the freezer and make sure there is no ice build-up because the ice or frost build-up can block the drain hole, causing the water to leak out onto the floor. If this is the case, the issue is probably related to a faulty defrost heater, part number PS11738607. The evaporator fan motor is not a likely culprit of this issue. It circulates cold air within the refrigerator. Customer service is available 7 days a week if you require assistance placing an order. Thanks again for reaching out!
Does this motor come with the fan blade or will i need to order this separately?
For model number GB2FHDXWS04
Hi Sean,
Thank you for your inquiry. The fan for the evaporator motor is sold separately. The part number for it is PS11738973. I hope this helps. Thank you and have a great day!
I order a fan motor from you which was a change for part # 13062901 the fan motor you sent did not match up , but here is the question i swap the motor from another refrigerator with the same evap. Fan motor but the refrigerator compartment is not cooling down
For model number KRFF302EBL01
Hi Kenneth,
Thank you for your question. Based on the model number you provided, KRFF302EBL01, the part number for the correct evaporator fan motor for your refrigerator would be PS11773024. I hope this helps. Thank you and have a great day!

Hello Shirley, thank you for your question. We would recommend testing/replacing the thermistor, evaporator fan motor, and defrost heater. If the issue persists, the problem could be with the electronic control board that puts the unit into defrost mode. I hope this helps!
