Because evaporator fan blade sizes, mounting shaft lengths and connector configurations can vary between models and years, please check with your maintenance technician prior to ordering to ensure this is the correct part for your specific refrigerator model.
Features & Benefits
-
OEM-specified fit: Designed to GE’s original equipment specifications for models calling for WR60X114, ensuring proper fit and reliable performance. GE Appliance Parts+1
-
Restores airflow: If your evaporator fan blade is cracked, chipped or missing, airflow will be impaired—this blade helps restore full circulation across the evaporator and throughout the compartments. PartSelect+1
-
Improves cooling efficiency: A properly functioning fan blade helps prevent frost buildup, temperature fluctuations, and over-working of the compressor.
-
Cost-effective repair: Instead of replacing the fan motor or a large assembly, swapping in the correct fan blade often solves many airflow and cooling issues at a lower cost.
Common Symptoms That Indicate Replacement Is Needed
-
The freezer or refrigerator is warm or warming, despite the compressor and fan running.
-
Frost or heavy ice buildup is visible on or around the evaporator coil—indicating poor air circulation.
-
The evaporator fan blade is visibly damaged (cracked or missing blades) or wobbles when the evaporator cover is removed.
-
You hear unusual noise (rattling, scraping) from the evaporator area — the blade may be scraping or spinning unevenly.
-
Replacement of other components (fan motor, defrost heater) did not fix the problem, pointing to the blade as the likely missing component.

Compatibility Notes
-
Confirm your full refrigerator model number and verify the current fan blade part number or description — if a different size, shaft height or mounting style is used, this part may not fit properly.
-
Access typically requires removing the freezer back panel to reach the evaporator and fan assembly — ensure the appliance is unplugged or power is off before servicing.
-
If the evaporator fan motor itself is damaged, blade bent or mount is broken, simply replacing the blade may not resolve the issue—have your technician inspect the full fan assembly.
-
Replacing this fan blade improves airflow and cooling, but will not fix issues unrelated to airflow (e.g., refrigerant leaks, compressor failure, bad thermostat).
