Repair & Advice
The fan motor in my freezer started pulsing and varying in speed on my 1.5 year old Whirlpool refrigerator. To fix the problem, I replaced the Freezer Evaporator Fan Motor and Main Control Board at the same time. A bad fan motor can burn out the main control board and alternatively a bad main control board can burn out the fan motor. Both should be replaced at the same time to properly fix the issue. Replacing these two parts was significantly cheaper than if they had failed completely and I had to replace all of the food in the refrigerator. Parts Dr had a helpful video on their Youtube channel that showed how to replace the part.
