WP2188875 Whirlpool Condenser Fan Motor

The Refrigerator/Freezer Condenser Fan Motor Kit, offering 2 Watts and clockwise rotation, is compatible with various Whirlpool brands including Whirlpool, Amana, KitchenAid, Maytag, Jenn-Air, Magic Chef, Roper, and Admiral. Additionally, this motor is used in appliances sold under the Sears-Kenmore and Ikea brand names. Designed specifically for Whirlpool bottom-mount refrigerators, this OEM part drives the condenser fan that helps expel heat from the coils of the refrigeration system, ensuring the interior remains cool.

The motor may fail due to normal wear on the bearings after many cycles of use or from obstructions that hinder the movement of the fan blades.

Signs that the motor may need replacement include:

- Increased internal temperatures and issues with frost buildup
- Longer operating times, leading to greater energy use
- Noticeable grinding or buzzing sounds from the area of the refrigeration system

Replacing a faulty motor with this Whirlpool part can enhance heat dissipation, improve food preservation, and reduce the likelihood of future maintenance costs. It is also suitable for use with certain models from KitchenAid, Maytag, and Kenmore.
