fan motor replacement

[buckit]

I ordered a fan motor only replacement part #AP4140906 and two new gromments, instead of the complete fan motor and housing, for my 2004 Samsung model RS2630SH. My ? is how detailed of a job this is gonna be or just a simple repacement into the original housng to restore this compressor componets cooling gem.

Thanks,
Frank

Frank,

Not that major a repair,

The best way, is to remove the whole assembly,

Be careful, there’s a lot of sharp edges,

And that housing is a "snap" fit into the base of the compartment.

[LEFT]The condenser Fan is located in the middle of
machine compartment. It cools down the subcondenser
and the compressor.

1. Lift up the rib under the motor support.[/LEFT]
2. Pull the support motor.

Not a lot if information from the service manual.

Good Luck,

[buckit]

Thanks again Joe the new motor was a breeze to replace as you had stated in your first reply, The fan blade was the only problem I had and after removing the spring clip and putting a squirt of wd-40 on the shaft it finally slid off without breaking. The new Samsung fridge fan motor is now running like the new one it is. Thanks so much
