Some what easy to repair the part worked great
The only issue I had changing the fan motor and blade. I had to remove the blade from the motor first. Then take the blade and motor out separately as there was not enough room to take out in one piece. It went well but did make it more difficult. I had also replaced the fan blade at the same time as it was low cost and didn’t want to take a chance it was damaged.

Compressor fan never comes on. When should it come on? Always while compressor is running?
For model number FGFU19F6QFB
Hi Rhett,
Thank you for your question. The condenser fan circulates air through the condenser coil to remove heat. If the refrigerator is warmer than normal and the compressor is running almost continuously, then you may have a problem with the condenser fan motor. The condenser fan motor runs at the same time as the evaporator motor and the compressor. If the fan motor is not turning at all the condenser will not be able to expel the excess heat and the compressor will run almost continuously. If your compressor fan is not turning on, you will also need to check the condenser fan motor and the capacitor. You will find the information on how to test these parts under Free Repair Help and Instant Repairman on our website. We hope this helps! Good luck with the repair!
The fan assembly is vibrating causing a very loud reverb sound. The fan seems balanced. The bracket frame is only mounted at the bottom with weatherstripping around the top/back. The fan slides in/out of the motor (#60) about 3/16-inches. I cleaned the fan blades and no improvement. Would value your advise on what should be replaced. Thank you! Toby

The refrigerator stays cold (36 deg) but the condenser fan does not come on with the compressor. If I nudge the fan it does start running. Do I need a knew motor and any other parts. Thanks,

My condenser fan motor does not seem to be running when the compressor is running and the coils are getting hot. I tried turning the fan blade with power disconnected and it seems to turn alright. If I ordered a new motor should I get the fan blade in case it is loose on the shaft.
Two weeks ago I was having trouble with the fridge getting to cold and replaced the thermostat defrost and the thermistor now the fridge is having a hard time to get to 38F with temperature set at 33F
