This Part Fixes These Problems

Refrigerator Not Cooling

Fridge or freezer temperature rises and food spoils; failed motor stops airflow over condenser coils causing compressor overload.

Compressor Runs Constantly

Refrigerator never reaches set temperature and compressor runs non-stop because condenser heat cannot be dissipated without the fan.

Loud Grinding or Squealing Noise

Worn ball bearings in the condenser fan motor produce grinding, squealing, or rattling sounds from the lower rear of the refrigerator.

Fan Not Spinning

Condenser fan blade is stationary even with the compressor running; motor winding or bearing failure prevents rotation.

Refrigerator Running Hot on Exterior Sides

Side walls or lower rear of cabinet become unusually hot due to condenser heat buildup from inadequate fan-driven airflow.

💡 Pro Tip: How to Tell If Your Condenser Fan Motor Has Failed

Your part is likely the culprit if you notice any of the following:

⚠️ Refrigerator or freezer section is warmer than normal and food is spoiling faster

⚠️ Compressor runs continuously or for abnormally long cycles without reaching set temperature

⚠️ Loud grinding, squealing, or rattling noise from the back lower section of the refrigerator

⚠️ Fan blade is not spinning even though the compressor is running and power is confirmed

🔍 Diagnostic tip: Unplug the fridge, reach behind the lower rear access panel, and try spinning the fan blade by hand. If it spins with resistance or makes noise, the motor bearings are worn. Then use a multimeter set to continuity mode across the motor terminals — no continuity confirms a failed motor that needs replacement.

Questions & Answers

What are the exact electrical specs for the 833697 condenser fan motor?
Answered by Support Team  ·  Mar 15, 2024
The 833697 is rated at 115V AC, 60 Hz, 2 watts, with a clockwise rotation. The motor operates between 1200–1550 RPM depending on the production run — the manufacturer has revised the RPM spec over the years, but all versions are direct drop-in replacements for the original.
Does this motor come with the fan blade, or do I need to reuse my old one?
Answered by Support Team  ·  Nov 20, 2023
The kit includes the motor, mounting hardware, blade nut, and cushion pad, but the fan blade itself is not included. You will reuse the fan blade from your original motor. If your existing blade is damaged, order blade part number 833697BLADE separately.
My refrigerator's existing wires don't have a plug connector — do I need to splice wires?
Answered by Support Team  ·  Jan 8, 2025
Yes, on some older models there is no quick-connect plug and you will need to splice the wires using wire nuts (included in the kit). Match the wire colors from the old motor to the new one. This is a straightforward connection that takes only a few minutes.
How do I know if the condenser fan motor is bad before ordering?
Answered by Support Team  ·  Jul 22, 2024
First, check that the fan blade spins freely by hand with no grinding resistance. If it is stiff or noisy, the bearings are worn. Then unplug the fridge and use a multimeter on the motor terminals — if there is no continuity, the motor winding has failed and the motor must be replaced.
Will this 833697 motor fit my Kenmore side-by-side refrigerator?
Answered by Support Team  ·  Feb 10, 2026
Yes — Kenmore refrigerators are manufactured by Whirlpool, and the 833697 is a direct fit for a wide range of Kenmore side-by-side and top-freezer models. Please verify by checking that your existing part number is listed in our 'Replaces' list above, or contact us with your full model number for confirmation.
