Whirlpool ATR1242CPP0 Cooling Fan Motor
The fan motor on the compressor has the main duty of keeping the compressor cool, when heat is removed from the house, that heat that needs to be discharged into the air outside. Be certain the replacement motor has the proper voltage and amps as on the current fan motor. The motor can be replaced with the blade or without as this may make it a lot easier and will not drain your bank account.
Some clues your Whirlpool fan motor is in dire straights
- An ugly crackling noise when the motor speeds up
- The cooling motor starts to smoke or shorts out as it is used
- The Whirlpool cooling motor cannot turn the blade
