Budget fix for a discontinued part saved us from having to buy a new refrigerator
The house we bought had a built-in 48" Jenn Air refrigerator (JS48PPFXDA) that was ~20 years old - and on the decline. Temperatures fluctuated, but we determined we could not use the freezer side anymore, as it would get up to 50 degrees, and never lower than 30. After dealing with this for more than a year, with it getting progressively worse, we decided it needed replacement, but a new 48" refrigerator was not an option.Took apart the freezer and found that there was ice all over the wiring - so it was getting cold enough, just wasn't getting the air down to the freezer section. The evaporator fan motor (Panasonic UDQT26MT6, Jenn Air part 67003241) wasn't working, and was discontinued.After much searching, and consulting with a local appliance repairman, I decided to order this one, even though it's a 9.5V, and the old one was a 12V. It was the same 4-wire configuration, and had the same sized/shaped wiring harness connector.Installation was relatively straightforward, but it didn't connect to the wiring harness very easily - have to push pretty hard. That said, it's not listed as a replacement for my machine, so I can't complain there. Also, the pin that the fan blades mount on was about an inch longer than my old one, so I cut it down to size with an angle grinder and filed the cut edge smooth. Put it into place, connected the wiring, pressed the freezer door switch (as if the door were closed) and waited about 15 seconds. Finally, it kicked on, and it worked!This afternoon the freezer temp is reading 5 degrees - it has never gotten that cold while we've had it! And now that the cold air is getting down where it needs to, and is getting pushed over to the refrigerator side, the fridge gets to the upper-30s where we set it, instead of also being in the low 50s.All things considered, this was a ~$20 part that saved me from spending a couple thousand dollars. Hopefully it will last a while.

Worked fine for GE Fridge
Original fan on 17 year old GE side-by-side was pulsating constantly so it was likely to die soon. This fan seemed identical to the original OEM fan except the wiring. I had to cut the connector off and connect the 4 wires to the old connector using Wago connectors.

May require modification to install
Nice price point. Worked fine out of the box. There was some shipping damage as the motor shaft was sticking through the inner shipping box, but did not appear to damage the motor. Due to the various refrigerators this will work in it may require wire splicing. If you require the motor with the light harness this is not a direct fit. It was easier to use the old harness and cut the 4 wires going to the motor and splice the new motor in. You can find the motor and harness that includes the light harness or the one that also adds the thermistor, but they are much more expensive. If you choose to splice the wires I recommend using heat shrink connectors that seal the moisture out.On a side note the previous 10 year old OEM motor was starting squeal. I removed and lightly oiled the external bearing and was able to get it working ok but was concerned that it was getting old and may not work at cold temps. How to check if the evaporator fan is working? Open the fresh food door for 3 minutes while checking the fan in the freezer section. You may have to remove the ice box to get your hand above the vent over the fan to check for air movement. The fan should come on slowly in that 3 minutes and increase in speed over a few minutes. If the fan jumps to a high speed quickly the main board may be bad. You tube has videos walking through the checks you can perform.
