Product review (3 stars): one like this and one with a thermistor
Unfortunately i did not know nor did the info about the part inform me that there are two versions: one like this and one with a thermistor, a small but important heating element. When this part came I had to unwire the old thermister and wire it into the new wiring harness. I think the only way for me to know would have been to disassemble the fridge [freezer side] first but then we would have been without it until the part arrived. But to be fair the fan is identical to the OEM part I pulled out. Just wished the Amazon site had included the info about two versions. Not sure if a tech would have known either, they usually just throw in whatever part is on their truck and I saved about $175 over having the work done. Lots of plastic to dissassemble so take your time. You will need a light [I use an LED headlamp] since the power and interior light will be off. Actually you must disassemble the light to got to this part. Find a YouTube video before you attempt so you know what is involved.
