Stop in for a cup of coffee

Yeh, I changed that fan on mine years ago. Blows from freezer to fridge. I have a separate fan to the ice compartment. Ice maker has been off for about a year...If I turn it on it faults the boar and the whole fridge goes off on error. From what I read it can be fan, board or both. Don't need ice from the door bad enough to spend a few hundred on an old fridge that still works fine otherwise.
I have a noisy refrigerator freezer fan. I know what I'll be doing today.

If you unplug the fridge it will quiet down.

LOL yep. The icemaker was working but the ice cream was soft. "Hey wait a second, the fan isn't blowing"
I started it spinning with a screwdriver but it sounds like it want's outta there! LOL

Fixed. A $25 universal motor from our local appliance parts store. The original design was discontinued years ago.20180905_100814.jpg
