Whirlpool Evaporator Fan Motor WPW10514110 OEM Part

Evaporator Fan Motor Overview

This Evaporator Fan Motor serves as an OEM replacement part specifically for Whirlpool refrigerators, but it also fits various models from Amana, KitchenAid, Maytag, Jenn-Air, Magic Chef, Roper, and Admiral. It is compatible with some models from Sears-Kenmore and Ikea as well. The replacement kit includes a thermistor, a defrost thermostat, and a wiring harness, all crucial for preserving effective air circulation within the refrigerator's fresh food section, thereby maintaining consistent temperatures to keep food fresh.

Typical signs that suggest a fan motor replacement might be necessary include temperature fluctuations in the refrigerator or freezer, unwanted water leaks, accumulation of frost, or unusual sounds coming from the appliance.

To carry out the motor replacement, begin by taking out the freezer drawer and air cover. If your appliance features an icemaker, it needs to be removed along with the freezer's rear cover. Carefully remove the fan blade by pulling it straight off, and then detach the motor by unclipping it from the base. In some cases, you might need to take off the fan shroud as well. Always follow appropriate safety procedures while performing the replacement.

This replacement kit is tailored to fit various models of Whirlpool-manufactured refrigerators, including select models from brands like Maytag and KitchenAid.
