Part 140282033103 Refrigerator Evaporator Fan Motor (with Harness)
Purpose
Circulates cold air from the evaporator coils throughout the refrigerator and freezer compartments.
Details
The 140282033103 is a genuine OEM evaporator fan motor assembly specifically designed for modern Frigidaire and Electrolux refrigerators. This motor is the primary component responsible for moving air over the cooling coils and distributing it to the fresh food and freezer sections. It includes the pre-attached wiring harness and specialized electrical connector for a direct plug-and-play installation. Common symptoms of a failing evaporator fan motor include a loud humming or chirping noise coming from the back of the freezer, the refrigerator sections being too warm while the freezer remains cold, or visible frost buildup on the back panel. Replacing a seized or electrically failing motor is critical for maintaining consistent internal temperatures and preventing food spoilage.
Included Items
One evaporator fan motor with integrated wiring harness; installation typically requires a 1/4-inch nut driver or Phillips head screwdriver to remove the rear freezer panel.
