    I have recently purchased a fan motor to replace the original in my USA style fridge freezer ~

    The wiring on the new one is different to the old one ~ new one has an earth wire and green/yellow cable ~ where the old one has red and white cables ~

    HELP ~ how do we connect up the new fan motor ?

    Yes it is the correct part no for the Fridge freezer.

    I had hoped that someone could tell me how to connect the old wiring to the new wiring for this fan motor ~

    The previous history to this issue ~ an engineer called out and never removed the back cover of the appliance and said it was the thermostat and defrost timer switch ! duly replaced and still not working properly ! another engineer said it was the defrost heater ~ replaced and still not working ~ on these ocassions the engineer was totally wrong.

    A commerial refrigeration engineer ~ took the back cover off and siad the fan motor is not working ! after being quoted at £295 just for the motor ~ we have purchased through UK whitegoods at less than a third of the price, and are now in the position as above.

    Please can anyone tell us jhow to connect this fan motor.

    I applied some logic to this and have connected the fan motor and it is all working just great.
