Carrier 38QRR018 Cooling Fan Motor
The compressor fan motor is responsible for keeping the compressor cool, this is needed because of the heat that needs to be driven away. It can be replaced without needing to replace the fan blade, this tends to make installing it easier and reduce costs overall. Just make certain you are able to buy one with the voltage that is the same and amperage listed as it is on the bad motor.
Key clues of a worsening fan motor
- A specific rubbing noise while the cooling fan slows
- The Carrier motor fails to spin at all
- The compressor cooling motor smells burnt or shorts out while it is spinning
