I just installed a new condenser motor but noticed the airflow is away from the condenser. I have been using a small fan to keep the refrigerator working until the motor came in and used it to blow air into the condenser. Is airflow away from the condenser the proper function.

I basically needed to know if air should blow in front of the condenser fan motor or behind it. Keeping a small fan faced towards the condenser allowed the refrigerator to work while the new motor was in transit to me. I was baffled after installing the new fan motor, as to why the air was directed behind the fan motor and away from the condenser. However after some observing I realized it did have the same effect by drawing the hot air away from the condenser and coils and at the same time providing a way for the water in the drain pan to evaporate. Woke up in the morning with the refrigerator running like new. Thanks a million.
