    LOL, I fixed my 70's vintage Frigidaire's defrosting system a number of years ago - this video brought back memories. The funniest thing is that you said "General Motors", and my fridge was built when Fridigaire *was* a division of General Motors :)

    Mine started going out tonight about 3 hours ago, jout of nowhere. Our fridge was silent too! So weird how these motors fail. Thanks for the video!! A noisy fridge sure is annoying!

    Bought a GE fridge couple months ago. Freezer fan has been loud since day 1. The fan motor seems to have excessive play up and down. Like it's not supported right so it sags, and vibration in the motor bracket is the culprit. I will try to see.if I can tighten the support bracket or maybe add some foam double sided tape between the motor and bracket for cushion. If that doesnt work I have a new motor and 2 motor grommets on the way.

    Thanks for the details, especially letting us hear the noise before the repair. When you took the cover off and spun the fan by hand, there was no noise. How'd you determine it was the fan causing the noise? Thanks.

    my freezer evaporator motor is rattling like an angry snake, just ordered the motor and fan blade, as soon as I removed the rear panel, the noise quieted down a lot but still can hear it when the freezer door is open. I need to stop over stuffing my freezer perhaps that would help

    QUESTION: The noise I am getting is a clicking. It is not a constant noise and not very loud. Everything is working as it should. Is there some sort of a timer? GE TBX18JI thanks for any advice.

    Great video, I replaced my ice maker once, it's a side by side so I didn't have much elbow room. I used to buy appliance parts locally but they charge list price and act like they're giving up there first born. It's great to have the internet to get parts, sometimes much cheaper. At least with the freezer on top it' s at a good working height. Thanks

    My replacement motor wires do not plug in. Both female ends. Unbelievable. All this work. I got confused putting back original motor. I went to parts place today. The box had correct part number on it but don't fit smh. UPDATE: I ordered the wrong motor. There is a similar looking motor on the bottom of the fridge. I finally got the right one and got it in no problem. fridge fixed. thanks for your video.

    The big pita is getting all the stuff out of of the box. Been there.
    Wait till you have to replace the defrost timer. The freezer is all frozen up. A lot of labor for an $8.00 part, Amazon and you tube are your friends.
    A side by side is a colossal pain.

    Ah modern motors, just enough lubrication on the bearings to last the warranty, then after that, they just eat the bearings up, because it's "cost effective", aka profiteering from spares or entirely new fridges... :P
