GE Refrigerator Condenser Fan Motor Parts — Models & Compatibility

When your GE refrigerator starts clicking or running constantly without cooling properly, the condenser fan motor is often the culprit. This hub covers the WR60X10220 condenser fan motor — a critical component that keeps your refrigerator's compressor from overheating. If your fridge and freezer compartments are both too warm, or you're hearing unusual noises from the back of your unit, you're in the right place.

Is This the Right Part for Your Model?

The WR60X10220 fits a wide range of GE, Hotpoint, Americana, and RCA side-by-side and bottom-freezer refrigerators. To verify compatibility, locate your model number — it's typically on a sticker inside the fresh food compartment, along the upper left or right side wall. Check your model against the list below before ordering.

About This Replacement Part

The condenser fan motor (part number WR60X10220) sits behind your refrigerator near the compressor. Its job is simple but essential: pull air across the condenser coils to dissipate heat. When this motor fails, you'll notice symptoms fast — the most common being a fridge that won't cool down even though the compressor is running. Some units develop a noticeable clicking sound as the motor tries to start but can't. Others just run nonstop, working overtime to compensate for poor heat exchange. This motor replaces older part numbers including WR60X10133, WR60X10171, WR60X10192, AP4298602, and PS1766247, making it a direct fit for many GE refrigerator series from the early 2000s through mid-2010s.

Common Failure Symptoms

Here's what typically happens when this motor goes bad:

• Both compartments too warm — The freezer and fresh food sections won't maintain temperature because the condenser can't release heat
• Refrigerator runs constantly — The compressor stays on trying to compensate, driving up your electric bill
• Clicking or buzzing noises — The motor attempts to start but the bearings are seized or the windings are shot
• Complete failure to start — No fan noise at all from the back of the unit

Compatible GE Refrigerator Models

This condenser fan motor works with the following model series. If you don't see your exact model, check the replacement part numbers — if your current motor shows WR60X10133, WR60X10171, or WR60X10192, this is your replacement:

• BSS25 Series: BSS25GFPCCC, BSS25GFPCWW, BSS25GFPDCC, BSS25GFPDWW, BSS25GFPECC, BSS25GFPEWW, BSS25GFPHCC, BSS25GFPHWW, BSS25JFRFWW, BSS25JFRJWW, BSS25JFTAWW, BSS25JFTBWW, BSS25JFTCWW, BSS25JFTDWW, BSS25JFTEWW
• A4425 Series: A4425GDTABB, A4425GDTAWW, A4425GDTBBB, A4425GDTBWW, A4425GDTW

Many other GE side-by-side and bottom-freezer models from 2000-2015 use this same motor design. When in doubt, match the part number on your existing motor.

Why This Part Fails

Condenser fan motors typically last 8-12 years under normal use. Failure usually comes from dust buildup restricting airflow, which causes the motor to overheat and burn out the windings. If you've got pets or live in a dusty area, the motor works harder and fails sooner. Sometimes the bearings just wear out from years of continuous operation — these motors run whenever the compressor runs, which is multiple times per hour.

What's Included

The WR60X10220 replacement includes the complete motor assembly. You'll reuse your existing mounting bracket and wire connectors in most cases. The motor shaft and blade mount are standard GE sizes, so your original fan blade transfers directly to the new motor.

Price and Availability

Currently available at $40.99 — a fraction of what you'd pay for a service call. Most GE-authorized repair shops charge $200-300 for this repair including the part, so DIY makes financial sense if you're comfortable working around basic electrical connections.
