[FONT=Times New Roman","serif]I have a 12 year old Kenmore / Whirlpool side by side. I replaced the evaporator motor in July of 2013. I had no problems until then. It failed again in Januaryof 2014. My question is: is it going to fail again in 6 months and what can cause this. The refrigerator and freezer run fine and it does not seem to run excessively. Both times the motor had an open coil.[/FONT]

Below is the fan. Click on the picture for more views/info. The fan has a different part number that the original part so perhaps they have improved it. Part number: AP4364011
I would check that it gets 120 volts across it when running. Low voltage can cause problems. |

Use a SM999 universal motor, better price and they never fail. Comes with instructions.
