Whirlpool ATR1552CPP0 Cooling Fan Motor
The fan motor on the compressor is responsible for keeping the compressor cool, when heat is removed from the house, that heat has got to be dispersed in order to keep things cool. The motor on the compressor fan can be replaced as a whole unit with the blade or by itself, which this results in an easier installation and cheaper too. Just make sure the new motor has the proper voltage and the precise amperage as it is on the bad motor.
General indicators that your fan motor is dying
- The cooling motor catches fire or sparks as it is used
- The Whirlpool motor tries but fails to turn at all
- A terrible crackling noise when the cooling fan turns
