Just to add my 2 cents... Lets try to make it more simple. We have to figure out if the problem is a bad evaporator fan motor or it is something else? Both (evaporator and condenser) fan motors should be on the same time as the compressor is on. Make sure the compressor is on and check for 120 VAC to the evaporator fan motor. If the voltage is correct but the fan motor is not working, replace the fan motor. If the voltage reading is incorrect, post the result and we will go from there. - The evaporator fan motor Part number: AP2071792

Gene, I believe the evaporator motor is wired in series with the defrost thermostat and heater in this old GE fridg. If freezer is too warm, the fan motor will get no voltage

This voltage test will help to eliminate or prove a faulty motor. Gene.
