Whirlpool ATR0942CPP0 Cooling Fan Motor
The fan motor on the compressor has a unique job of keeping the compressor cool, due to the large amount of heat that needs to be discharged into the air outside. The motor on the compressor fan can be replaced on its own as this can make the installation go smoother and cheaper for you. Just make sure you buy a replacement motor with the similar voltage as well as amps as it is on the bad motor.
