Whirlpool ATE1242SPP0 Cooling Fan Motor
The fan motor is primarily in charge of cooling the outdoor compressor, when heat is removed from the house, that heat that needs to be driven away. The unit may be replaced with or without the blade, this can make the installation go smoother and reduce the price overall. Be certain the replacement motor has the same voltage and the same amps as it is on the current motor.
Some clues of a worsening Whirlpool fan motor
- A terrible scraping sound when the motor is starting
- The Whirlpool motor cannot turn at all
- The main cooling motor starts to smoke or sparks as it spins
