  • Unplug your fridge then plug it in. Listen... Does the compressor turn on? Open your freezer door ... Do you hear the evaporative fan running? If not this video will show you how to replace your fan. Remember when you unplug your fridge it will go through a quick check and balance then shut off. It may take up to 10 minutes for the fridge to start running normally.

    I ordered a new fan motor for about 70 bucks and it took a week to arrive but once it did, I followed this video and it worked! Thanks for this!

      Just installed a replacement from Amazon. It cost me $28.00 including tax. The motor is identical. Get your order in cuz Jeff needs the money!

    Sam, I liked the way you explain a problem and how to fix it without being scared of the task

    Sam, thank you for as far as you went in this video, it was very helpful, however, I purchased just the motor not the assembly. It was a bit awkward figuring how to disassemble it so I could snap in the motor.
    I have a thumbs up because you did point out a couple of things I didn’t think to do. The motor was $22. Thumbs up!

    This was a uniquely helpful video because I have a frigidaire model lFTR2032TFO with a failure to refrigerate problem (freezer works fine though) and my evaporator fan does not turn, so this video helps me prep for that job. Seeing the clips and wiring helps. I have seen it in person but I did not pay attention to the layout when I opened mines up. Have blessed 2021.

    Thank you very much you saved the day for us. The only thing that I have problems understanding was a little bit about how to get the motor off you know you have to twist that thing on top which didn't make a lot of instant visually sense. Thank you very much you saved us a lot of money today.

    I replaced the fan and thermostat control for fridge but the fan is not spinning. It worked when I first installed it but it hasn't worked to push the cold air into fridge. The Freezer is working so dont know what the cause is.

    My Frigidaire is not cooling and I hear water dripping in the back of the refrigerator but don't see any leakage. It is a brand new refrigerator what cause the cooling in the refrigerator to stop working?

  • @blissfulnature1
    @blissfulnature1 Před rokem

    Hi. My fridge is warm too top and bottom, but unlike this video, my evaporator fan is blowing up top, so would it be the freezer coils? There is also no cracking sound as it is in this video. I took the back panel off and the coils were not cool or moist. May I please ask your input on this matter?

    Hello, I see that in your video, the fan has 3 wires. The fan that Amazon sells has only 2 wires (black and red, no green wire). I believe the green wire is for ground. If I replace the fan with the one that Amazon sells, it should work? Please let me know. Thank you

    My problem is the evaporator fan connector is damaged. The connectors don't want to go into each other tightly. Do you have any idea how to fix it? The problem is not the fan but rather the connectors.

    I bought a used frigidaire from someone for 190 bucks the other day. Was the last of my money and pisses me off being low income. Anyways the fan motor feels like its blowing good as I can feel the air. There is no frost on it as its only been plugged in for like a week. However the fridge only cooled for like 3 days and then has quit getting cool. So its something to do with the defrost system?

    Great video. My Freezer's fan stopped working, but upon touching it, it restarted. I am changing the fan, assuming that the fan has a dead spot, but I am worried that something else is the problem. Any advice?

    • @starramus

    There were a lot of steps skipped in this video. Like... how do you remove the old motor from the housing and install the new one? Nevermind... it was just one step. Carry on. I'm an idiot.

  • @vicoli89
    @vicoli89 Před 2 lety

    What if the fan rotates but then turns off. I’m getting 120v in the plug but once it’s connected It’s intermittent with only 3v for like a second at a time.

    • @MoreThanMaintenance
      @MoreThanMaintenance  Před 5 lety +5

      Unfortunately Frigidaire has figured out if they keep changing model parts etc it would be beneficial for them in regards to making profits. Literally I have had 2 fridges same model 6 months apart with different fans. 🙄 literally the same exact fridge! I would suggest calling your local appliance parts in your area. Give them the model # and they will tell you if they have part in stock or if they need to order it. Hope that helps my friend! 😀

  • @dgsm24
    @dgsm24 Před 5 lety +5

    What if the freezer and fridge part both aren’t cooling?

    • @MoreThanMaintenance
      @MoreThanMaintenance  Před 5 lety +9

      Everything starts in the freezer. The fridge gets cold because the air pushes down through the chute by the evaporative coil. So if nothing is cold you want to check... is the compressor in the back of the fridge running? Are the coils getting cold behind the freezer panel? Is the fan blowing? Some Frigidaire models have a board... at that point you would have to troubleshoot the board. If your applaince is new under 1 year... it should be covered under the warranty. Hope that helps.

  • @alexander0194
    @alexander0194 Před rokem

    Do you know - does the evaporator fan turn off when the fridge is in defrost mode?

    • @alexander0194
      @alexander0194 Před rokem

      What I mean is that there is a defrost timer in the control panel in the upper part of the lower (fresh) section of the fridge. As I understand it, the defrost timer periodically turns off the compressor and allows for a short thaw cycle. When in the defrost mode - does the evap fan turn off?

    • @MoreThanMaintenance
      @MoreThanMaintenance  Před rokem

      Yes the fan turns off to allow the heat element to cycle through and heat up the coil to remove frost build up. Hope this answers your question.

    Sam, do you have a zelle account? I can send you $5 for this video. I have this same exact model Frigidaire and I successfully replaced the evaporator fan motor. This video aided me with being familiar with the getting assess to the motor. My only exploring was in getting the motor housingto release the motor. That was not in the video. Mines rotated 90 degrees to release after pressing to plastic clips.
