  • Food compartment was not cooling but the freshener was frozen. The food compartment fan wasn't working. I made it work temporarily while I waited for the replacement fan. The repair was simple. DIY
    I bought the fan online. The fan fits most GE cafe styles.

    You just saved me $3,500 on a new fridge! Thank you, you are appreciated. We had the exact same problem with the exact same fridge. It was made in 2013 and it’s 2024, it’s a good fridge!

    By far you’re one of the best, RUclips appliance repair videos that I have seen we had the same issue with our twin cooler GE refrigerator (same issue exactly upper vent not working). I followed your directions, thumped it, and the fan worked but only for 1 day or so had to redo it, and I will order a new part.
    No one else had instructions and videos like this truly a genius and explained everything very well. I greatly appreciate it, so does my family. Thank you again. 😊

    Thank you so much for the video. It was exactly what was happening to our refrigerator. My husband said call the repair man but I found your video he fixed it with no problems. Saved us the $250.00 service call instead it only cost us the part $83.00.

While a new evaporator fan was on order and expected in about four days, your quick fix worked beautifully! The new fan went in, just as you had instructed. Thanks so much for saving me so much time and trouble!

    This dude is awesome. The video directed me to the diagnosis, no air through the upper vent. I ordered the fan and it was delivered in 48 hours. The process went very smoothly. As soon as I plugged in the new fan I could feel cold air though the upper vent. Everything back to normal. Thanks!!

    Thank you, worked great! Mine was really frozen. Took half an hour with hair dryer to get the fan cover off. Saved us a lot of money. This video was great. Thank you again. Clear instructions.
    My old fan blade was really rough and not free spinning.

    Thank you for creating and sharing this. Like others, I had the exact same problem. I came home from a week vacation to find the fridge warm. Only differences was that I had to physically spin the fan to get it functional again, and I had a large foam piece covering the condenser. I am ordering a new fan today.

    I just discovered last night that I have a similar issue, but its my freezer. Set at Zero but stayed 27 through the night. And I noticed no ice was made yesterday. So I checked the side vents and no air. Shot with a temp gun and one was about 45 and the other was like 51. I will be checking the freezer fan tonight after work.

      Followup, mine is a CFE28USHLSS and the fan uses a completely different rubber boot to connect to the removable panel, not the back of the fridge. I was very afraid of tearing the boot so I cut the old fan off of it instead of stretch the rubber.
      After reassembly, the main fan works but the drawer fan now doesn’t. I took it all apart and ensured it was plugged in but still never turns on. Fridge seems ok though.

    wish my fan was so located. We have a GE of that style also but the fan is down in the freezer section and now replacing it a second time in 2 or 3 years and it ain't easy to do. There is a sensor bulb down in there worth replacing while you are at it. Any good appliance parts website has diagrams showing parts and maybe functions

You hit the nail right on the head. My question is, should I replace both fan motors while i'm in there? Are both fans the same? Or different?
