Noisy Whirlpool Fridge fan motor Refrigerator fix . Condensor fan! 

Excellent video, I just repaired my fan, but two things I did different: 1- I just took off the 3 screws in the back of the fan and the fan came easily, 2- I did not replace the fan, I cleaned the blades with soapy water (a lot of dirt) in order to have them balanced, then I add W40 to the little shaft and that was all. Cost of the repair $ 0,00., 20 minutes invested. But if not for this video I would not know how to deal with this problem, thanks Ghetto Wagon.

Hey there... this is a really helpful video to do your own fix... I did it my self, I have plenty time to do so...but this was done in about 1 hour... I bought this kits in amazon for about 60 box and fix my whirlpool refrigerator... love it...

Hey, thanks. I recently had a problem with major water leaks. I replaced the water inlet valve (to water dispenser and ice machine), which stopped one leak, then found out the drip tray was not only cracked, but the entire corner was missing. Replaced that and no more leaking. Now I am hearing a noise that sounds a little like a ratatat from drums. I will pull the fridge out and test the play on the fan. This looks easier than the previous fixes. Seems like when it rains, it pours with appliance problems. Nice to know many are easy fixes.

Thank you so much for taking the time to make a video of helping others my self included I watched a few other videos you did one beautiful solid video. Of details I was looking for the install.

Great step by step solution and suggestions! Solved my problem and saved me time and money. Thanks a million.

This is what the internet was made for.. Free exchange of information. You're my hero.

Would of been nice to hear the old fan buzzing noise too, so we can see if it matches what others are hearing.

Thanks so much for this video! My whirlpool fridge is making a lot of noise and it's coming from the motor where the fan is. I'm going to give it a shot and try and fix it. I can't afford to buy a new one. 😫 Is the new part working good still?

could be this fan the source of a high frequency and constant noise on a brand new Whirlpool refrigerator?

Is the noise that you mention actually included in the video? I wasn’t able to hear anything. Mine is making a very high pitched whine and I’m wondering if this fan could be the issue or if it’s the compressor. Thanks!

I have the same noise problem but also, my fridge isnt cooling. I replaced the condenser fan like you did in this video, but it didnt solve the problem, also my current fan is metallic. Can you suggest somethings to check on my own?

Thanks for the video help

Do you need to remove power to the fridge prior to doing all this work? My fridge is making noise but it's not a constant, it comes and goes. Is that most likely the fan or something else?

Hi: Thank you very much for taking the time to teach the public something useful. Sincerely, Dennis Hill

It’s actually easier to remove 3 screws directly from the fan motor

Came here to see if I had to replace my condenser if the fan wobbles around. Was hoping I could repair the condenser. Thank you for this video!!

Thanks for the video. I put hot glue in the spindle hole before putting the fan on and that fixed the whining noise.

Thanks, man. Going to try this out! :)

Very good video... Thank you !!! HINT: My 5-yr Whirlpool Fridge ice maker started making a constant popping noise, but because I had raised the thermostat for cooling freezer from 3 to 5 inside the fridge. Next day I think the ice built up, and began a constant popping noise. I decreased the number back to 3 and now the noise stopped !! Is this the reason, or something is failing?

I have an old fridge I use in my tool shop and its probably 25 years old and had no problems knock on wood lol

thank you!!!!

Cool, thank you.............Bobby

Mine has just started making noice , where exactly did you bought your fan motor?

Good job buddy....thanks!

My fridge back looks like it has spider webs in it :( i just gotta take of the cover and clean it right?

Thank you 🙏

Thanks so much!
