Product Description
Restore proper airflow in your refrigerator’s evaporator compartment with the 12002744 Evaporator Fan Motor. This replacement motor is compatible with many models of Whirlpool, Maytag, Kenmore, Amana and related brands. It is designed to fit in the evaporator fan assembly behind the freezer liner and help maintain efficient cooling by circulating air over the evaporator coils. Because motor mounts, shaft lengths and wiring harnesses can vary by model, please check with your maintenance technician prior to ordering to ensure correct fit and wiring.

Common Symptoms That Indicate Replacement Is Needed
-
Freezer or fresh-food compartment no longer holds temperature despite compressor working.
-
Noticeable ice or frost build-up on the evaporator coils (behind the freezer liner wall).
-
Fridge runs continuously or much longer than usual but doesn’t cool efficiently.
-
Unusual noise coming from the freezer compartment (fan motor humming or stalling).
-
The evaporator fan is not turning when freezer door is open and you listen for airflow.
-
Freezer feels warmer than normal and chilling is compromised.
If you experience any of these, the evaporator fan motor could be the culprit — but again, check with a qualified technician to confirm it’s the correct part for your unit.

Compatibility Notes
-
Verify your existing fan motor’s shaft length, mounting bracket, wiring terminal configuration and voltage match this replacement.
-
Even though you’re replacing the motor, you should have your technician check the entire evaporator area: ensure the coil is free of frost, the fan blade is intact, mounting is secure, and wiring is correct.
-
While this part addresses airflow problems, it does not fix compressor failures, refrigerant leaks or other cooling system issues — those will require broader repair.
-
Because installation involves working inside the freezer compartment (often removing the liner panel), a technician or qualified installer is recommended to ensure safe, correct installation.
