Carrier 38ARD012 Cooling Fan Motor
The fan motor on the compressor is primarily in charge of keeping the compressor cool, because a large quantity of heat gets released and that heat energy has to be dissipated. Take the time to ensure you are able to buy one with the exact voltage and the correct amp listing as it is on the bad motor. The motor on the compressor fan can be replaced as a whole unit with the blade or by itself, which this can make the installation go smoother and reduce costs overall.
Major symptoms the cooling fan motor needs replacing ASAP
- The Carrier cooling motor does not move at all
- The main cooling motor catches fire or sparks when it is spinning
- A weird scraping sound when the motor is turning

If you are unsure about the properly replacing the new cooling fan motor by yourself then it is probably best to consult a pro to do the work for you.
