This refrigerator evaporator fan motor kit comes with a wiring harness and a four-inch push on fan blade. If your current evaporator fan motor has shorted out and does not circulate the cold air from the freezer into the fresh food compartment, or you notice that your refrigerator is too warm, you may have to replace the evaporator fan. The evaporator fan motor is located behind the back panel of your freezer. You will need to remove any shelves, as well as the back panel to access this part for repair. Be sure to disconnect the power source from the refrigerator before you begin this repair.

Part worked except
The evaporator fan motor is working perfectly. But the fit however had to be modified because there were no brackets attached to the motor. But I am very satisfied with the purchase and the part arrived within a few days.

motor minus brackets
I had to rob the mounting brackets from my old motor and separate the new motor to install them. Fortunately, they fit since the new was almost identical to the old. i also had to splice in the new wires provided because the connectors were on the opposite side of the new motor. My fridge is very old. So, your situation may be different. Worked a treat once installed.
