If it does not then check for 120 VAC to the motor. If there is nothing wrong - replace the motor. - The condenser fan motor Part number: AP3120994 Here are the breakdown diagrams and Replacement parts for AMANA TR21S4L | AppliancePartsPros.com Gene.

I would rate them probably 6.5 out of 10 just because of over computerized. You can see a lot of advertisements about their power and water efficiency. Unfortunately they will never last long enough to let you see it. Gene.

Will this motor work for my Amana side by side model # SCD23VW ? I'm having same problem and possibly others. But the other day I looked and temp in freezer was 10F or more. Gave the fan a push and it started up. The temp then went back down shortly there after. Any help would be greatly appreciated.......
