Title
Whirlpool Refrigerator Evaporator Fan Replacement
Introduction
Use this guide to replace the evaporator fan in your Whirlpool Refrigerator.
The evaporator fan draws air over the cooling coils and circulates this air within the fridge and freezer compartments. If your refrigerator is not cooling but your freezer works, then your evaporator fan might be broken.
***This guide will work for most Whirlpool refrigerators.*** This guide is written with a model WRS315SDHW refrigerator. If you have a different model, you may encounter some minor disassembly differences, but the overall repair process will be the same.
***Note:*** Some photos show the doors removed for clarity purposes. Removing them is not required and will not change the procedure.
