This evaporator fan blade is a genuine OEM part that is sourced directly from the manufacturer. The evaporator fan blade circulates air through the refrigerator to control the amount of cold air goes that goes to internal compartments of the unit. It may need to be replaced if the fridge is noisy or not cold enough. This part is made of plastic and is sold individually. It will be necessary to disconnect power to the refrigerator and empty the freezer compartment of the refrigerator. The tools needed to complete this repair are a 1/4 inch nut driver and a pair of needle nose pliers.

Quick repair. Fridge works like new again.
I went online to see if we could match the part. We had thought a fridge should last more than 3 years. This was the second fridge to break down right after extended warranty was out. The part was reasonable and arrived fairly quickly. It was an easy installation. Saved us the cost of a third fridge.

Easy Fix
i replaced the fan and the fan motor at the same time and the instruction video was easy to follow. unfortunately it did not clear the error code so i had to purchase the control board and UI panel which did clear my error code.

I had a broken fan blade due to ice build up from a leaking ice maker.
1. I took out one screw on the ice maker and loosened the other two screws and unplugged and removed the ice maker. 2. Next I took out 2 screws from the bottom of the auger drive box and unplugged the wiring harness and removed the box. The wiring harness was a little tricky. The lock on the plug pushes in to unlock even though
... Read moreit looks like it pulls out,. 3.next you must remove 2 screws from the left side bracket that holds the auger box and remove the bracket. 4.Now take out 8 screws that hold the back panel in place and remove the back panel. 5. now your looking at the evaporator fan blade and motor. The simple way to replace the fan blade is to unplug the motor and remove it from the freezer. It just sits in with nothing holding it. The fan requires a little pressure but should pull right off. Install new fan blade and put everything back in the same order it was removed.

Freezer making annoying high pitched sound (like a whine)
Parts Select included a video, and I watched a couple more that were on YouTube. Watch the video and do the repair . . . it's very easy took me about 35 min once I got the freezer emptied, including cleaning the freezer. I used a Philips head screw driver and I think it was a 5/16 nut driver . . . you can do this. Freezer running fine,
... Read more no noise. One thing I would be careful on is removing the back plate that covers the fan and motor, the edges can be sharp and you could cut yourself removing the back plate. Also don't try to put the rubber gasket in before you replace the back plate, install the back plate and the rubber gasket goes in easy peasy :)
1. Removed the 7 nuts using the nut driver from the freezer back panel inside the freezer. 2. Remove the back panel. The evaporator motor and fan are located above the coils. 3. Unplug the wiring harness. 4. Remove the two gold mounting screws holding the motor and fan in place. 5. Remove the motor and fan including th
... Read moree brackets. 6. Install the new motor and fan onto the mounting bracket. 6a. Attach the green ground to the mounting bracket. 7. Screw the two gold screws back into the freezer. 8. Attach the new wiring harness. Note, the old harness had a mounting hole/space for it to connect to the wiring harness of the freezer. The new motor's harness was not long enough for this, so it is connected freely to the freezer harness. 9. Use the hair dryer to melt any ice that may have formed on the coils and hole where the fan goes. 10. Turn the freezer on to see if the fan turns on. 11. Reinstall the back panel. All done!
The fan motor all but caught the inside of the freezer on fire . Had to remove then clean, and I mean clean the walls of the freezer . Then had to pry out the old fan without breaking anything . Replacement of new fan was quick and easy because all the parts that I needed were in the bag
first i by passed the timing board, with a ele cord to the fan motor to keep the fridge cool till your parts got here, which was realy fast delivered, the fan would come on because the board was fried. it took abot 30 min to install every thind just be carefully unpluging anything.things will break i guess metal eing cold makes
... Read morethe conne4ctors stick together. evaporator fan is in the frezzer four screws,tested the wires for ohms,and power, when i pluged in the fan i would loss power to the fan,that told me the board was bad, the same night my furnance when to (reaaly) and i lost my borad on the computer ethernet card (lighting isn't fun) it cost to fix everything about 130.00 thanks for thr great parts

Hi I recently purchased the defrost kit from you and it seemed to work immediately for about two weeks. Now I am experiencing the same issues as before. Fridge and freezer are too warm and a clicking sound was being heard, frost has built up on the bottom half of the freezer panel in this short time. What would be my next step?
For model number flsc238js1
Hi Pamela, Thank you for the question. With the information provided, you may have an issue with the Main Power Control Board,PartSelect Number: PS2339026.You can also test the Defrost Thermostat.
The best way to do this is to remove the thermostat from the refrigerator so you can control the temperature of the sensor. You can let the sensor warm up to room temperature. With the sensor warmed up to room temperature the sensor should read approximately 6.2K Ohms at 68°F. With the thermistor submerged is a glass full of ice water, the sensor should be very close to 32°F which should read approximately 16.3K Ohms. If the values that you are getting are far off from these readings, then the sensor is bad and should be replaced. Hope this helps!

Lights are on and i hear refridgerator running but it does not cool down at all and then it shuts off
For model number 25370413414
Hi Mary,
Thank you for your question. If the refrigerator is too warm, there are some parts that you will need to check to see which ones are causing the issue. You will need to check the evaporator fan blade, the evaporator fan motor, the temperature sensor and the filter-drier. I hope this helps. Thank you and have a great day!

I have an intermittent noise coming from freezer. I think it may be this fan. Does this fan run continuously? If so, is there any reason the noise would be intermittent? Is there a way to test that this fan is the cause of my problem?
Hello Clyde, thank you for your question. The fan does not run continuously. It turns on and off to blow cold air into the fridge from the freezer. You're probably hearing the noise when the fan is running. I Would recommend removing the cover on the back of the unit to make sure the blade isn't hitting ice that has built up on the coils. If there is lots of ice buildup you would have a different issue and then we could provide some more information on the potential parts. I hope this helps!

Hello Jerry, thank you for writing. A frost buildup can occur from either a faulty Defrost Thermostat, part number PS2350702, or Timer, part number PS12585793 for your model. Good luck with your repair!

Fridge and freezer will not sustain correct temperatures, keeps defaulting to 'h' or '1' and '1'
For model number FFHS2322MBLA
Hello Joanne, thank you for writing. We advise checking the Run Capacitor. When testing a capacitor with a multimeter, you will need to set the meter between 10K and 1m ohms. Touch the leads from the multimeter to the corresponding leads on the capacitor. The red lead to positive and the black lead to the negative. The meter should start at zero and then moving slowly toward infinity. This means that the capacitor is in working condition. If the meter stays at zero, the capacitor is not charging through the battery of the meter, meaning it is not working. I hope this helps.

Frig is normal then it will get very loud, it will stop when you open the doors or the drawer for the freezer but will start back when you close them. Sometimes it sound like a drill.
For model number LGHB2867PFGA
Hello Felicia, Thank you for the question. Normally this is caused by a defective Refrigerator Evaporator Fan Motor. We suggest checking the fan to make sure the blades are not loose as well. We hope this helps!
