    I have just fitted a New condenser motor to this Fridge.
    481936178218 Whirlpool US Fridge Freezer Condenser Fan Motor
    Item# 481936178218 Fan Motor

    Whirlpool US fridge freezer condenser fan motor to fit models as shown

    This motor will almost certainly require some wiring changes as the manufacturers Whirlpool have modified it, the wiring change diagram DOES NOT come with the motor from the manufacturer nor can we obtain them, if you have difficulty fitting please seek advice in our forums.

    So from the Fridge we have two red wires and two white wires
    One red and one white coming from the Black gas unit that is under the fridge section
    and one red and white wire coming from under the freezer section.
    At present time the fan is blowing from the fridge section into the freezer section ???
    Is this correct ?
    if not how do I fix same ?

    Thanks

    Are you sure its a condenser fan?
    Would thought if its internal in fridge and blowing to freezer its an evaporator fan, condenser fans are usually outside the cabinet near the compresser at back.
    I’m afraid we’re not alowed to give wiring diagrams to the general public, forum rules.

    The Condenser fan motor was replaced. Understand the wiring thats ok.
    One question please which way should the fan be blowing ?
    1 towards the black compressor under the fridge section

    Looking at the refrigerator from the front the air is drawn in through the right hand side of the grille and blown out through the left provided that the rear cover is fitted.
    Hope that helps.
