Whirlpool ATE1245SPP0 Cooling Fan Motor
The fan motor has a unique job of keeping the compressor cool, because as the compressor gets hot the heat must be dispelled into the air. The motor on the compressor fan can be replaced on its own as this makes installation simpler and cheaper too. Just make sure you buy a replacement motor with the correct voltage and amps as it is on the bad motor.
