    Thank you for your help. Ice formed around the fans . Cleared the ice, dried everything up, motors are running fine and sounds normal again. I appreciate you making this helpful video.

    Thank you so much for this. All I needed was to pull the back panel to clear the drain. I knew it had to be something simple, but didn't want to break anything with too much force on the wrong thing or in the wrong direction.

    Based on this I just fixed a similar model by replacing the entire back panel. 🙌🏽 Thanks a ton!

    I emptied out freezer, used hair dryer on back panel, fan vents for about 10 to 15 minutes, dried everything. Checked after, it started working normal, no noise.

    What a great video for how to replace the fan motor. But it will be even better if you folks could provide a fan model circuit diagram or steps to test it before replacing as this part is not just a simple On/Off DC motor; it has a circuit board and looks like a speed sensor built-in...

    Hi, why the two fans have two different types of plugs? Are the two fans the same? And what about the Fan fan that lives in the refrigerator room - the one that gives the error code 'rF', is it the same as the one shown? (404B in LFX28978ST Service manual). Thanks!

      We had this happen and it was ice buildup around the fan. Removed the ice and voilà. The real problem was the drawer was too full and was nudging it open allowing air to get in and frost things up. That being said it could also just be a bad motor.

      This video is very good for showing how to replace the fan motor, but it dose not show how to test it before replacing. I googled the same but have not yet found any help. This is my ice room fan motor EAU61524007, which is not just a DC motor, it has a circuit board with 3 wires out, Purple (online shows, motor speed feedbacked to motherboard), Black and Red for driving motor but not simple wires directly connected to the DC motor rather via a circuit to control motor speed I guess). If someone can find a circuit diagram for this type of Fan Motor, please share it.

      It looks like this is an International model, so I'm not able to find specific information for this unit. However, generally, if your motor is not coming on when the compressor is on then you will need to test for power to the motor. If you have power there and it's not coming on then you will need to replace your motor. Locate the tech sheet for your unit to see where the testing points are and what voltage you should have.
