Did that, no luck. I did find some used motors, but you don't know what you will get and if it will last a day, month, year blah, blah blah.

Wife wants a new one.

The annoying thing is can't find the broken part unless you go in. The freezer on this one is on the bottom. Not an easy thing for someone my size (6'3") to get down there and then into it. Remove the ice maker, remove the back panel and spin fan by hand-bearings ok. Turn the thing on, fan does not move. (compressor ran very nicely!) Unplug it and remove the fan (without cutting myself on all those nice sharp edges.) Fan in hand, meter the coil, no conductivity. Turn fridge on, measure fan lead voltage, all good. Bad fan motor winding.

All that to find out motor not available any longer.

Frustrating after going through all that.
