Thanks for the 9v battery idea. I did the test with a 9v battery and a 10v dc power supply and the fan seemed to need an assist when starting, I had to spin it up manually sometimes to get to spin. No resistance when turning on the bearing I could tell and the resistance on my meter was about the same as a new one I got. My fan was a Panasonic and I got an OEM one $100! but the thing lasted 16 years so not too bad I guess. So the point is that a multimeter may not tell you it's bad. In my case there was some kind of slight internal resistance that stoped it from starting up - once it was spinning it was fine.
Just tried this method and the fan that sends air the refrigerator on the side of the evaporator fan wasn't working. Seems like that's why my water and ice machine were malfunctioning. Appreciate it
Hey their so my question is does your method work on any motor for the refrigerators? I have a Samsung and seems like it may stop working due to the top of refrigerator being warm and the bottom nice and cold
@@danersk9 Maybe I've got a different variation of the motor (reflected in the last letter of the part number), but on my motor, it DOES make a difference. The outer-most pin should be negative, and the inner-most pin should be positive 9-12V VDC

Your the man thank you so much

I thought it was an ac fan motor, no?
Which pin is + and which is -?
It makes no difference, but i suggest you try both ways and if it does not spin then you need a new part. If it spins then you have a good part
The outermost-pin is minus (-), and the inner-most pin is positive (+).

It’s not 9v , it’s 24v
