Luma Evaporator Fan Bearing Wear

High-pitched squealing or chirping noise from inside the cabinet.

This repair may involve working with high voltage components or water connections. Always unplug the appliance before removing any panels.

If you are not confident in your ability to perform this repair safely, we strongly recommend contacting a professional technician.

Possible Causes

Worn evaporator fan motor bearings, Fan blade rubbing on housing, Ice contacting fan blades

Disconnect power before accessing the interior fan.

Access fan: Remove the interior rear panel to expose the evaporator fan.
Check for ice: If ice is contacting the blades, fully defrost the unit and address any defrost or gasket issues.
Inspect fan alignment: Ensure the fan blade is centered in the shroud and not rubbing. Adjust if needed.
Replace motor: If the squeal persists and the motor feels rough when spun by hand, replace the Luma evaporator fan motor.
