140040743019 Genuine Freezer Fan Assembly MD36 L for Electrolux Group Fridge Freezers, Freezer Evaporator Fan Replacement

Looking for 140040743019? It's the genuine Electrolux freezer fan assembly listed under the MD36 L reference, built for Electrolux group fridge freezers. The fan circulates cold air from the freezer evaporator around the compartment. No model list is on file, so confirm the fit by checking the number on your old fan assembly, or the parts list that goes with your fridge's model and product number.

Freezer fan failure symptoms to look for

In a frost free fridge freezer, the freezer fan draws air across the cold evaporator and pushes it around the freezer, and often through ducts into the fridge section as well. If the fan stops, the evaporator stays icy cold but the air around your food barely moves. Typical signs are a freezer that won't get down to temperature, a fridge section running warm, ice cream going soft, or a grinding, ticking or squealing noise from behind the freezer panel. Ice can also jam the blade, so a fan that only runs after a defrost points to a defrost fault instead.

Replacing the freezer fan assembly

Unplug the fridge and move the frozen food into a cooler. Take out the drawers or shelves and unscrew the rear freezer panel. Note the wiring plug and how the fan assembly seats before removing it, and let any ice on the evaporator thaw first. Fit the new assembly, check the blade spins freely, then refit the panel and power up to listen for the fan running.
