Unhappy refrigerator not cooling
The problem with that my refrigerator ET1CHEXSQ01 is making to much ice in the freezer and it is warm in the refrigerator.
Call a tech and said that is the evaporation motor and want to charge me 350 dollars for changing it.
The point is that when I saw what it was I check for the part and is on average 40$. Nevertheless, when I went to order the part the vendor told me to clean the part and oil with sv40 and that is it.....it was working for a month now the problem is back....any clue?
should I by a new fan?
Thanks for your help,
Jorge Mario

Yes, your evaporator fan motor went bad, I've replaced lots of those on this model before.

Here's the one for your model:
Manufacturer's Number: 2315539

No, the fan blade just pulls off, then should be 2 screws that hold the motor in place.

Unplug your refrigerator first.

You have to first remove #29 here first:

that may have 4 screws that hold it in place.

Good job installing the evaporator fan motor.

Is your ice maker level?

Hi Jake,
yes it is leveled. The ice formed but can be ejected, I guess the warming coil is not working because the ice get sticky tothe maker, and that is the reason that more water fell in and is falling to the bucket below. the conclusion is that I have now an icy water fall!
thanks a lot for your patient and help!
Sincerely,
Jorge
