The lid bumper or evaporator fan motor bumper in your refrigerator prevents the fan motor from scraping against the side bracket. If your refrigerator/freezer is noisy, the bumper could be worn down or missing, and the sound could be a result of the motor scraping the side bracket. You will find it between the fan motor and the side bracket on the evaporator fan motor assembly. To access the bumper, you will need to remove the evaporator fan motor assembly from the freezer. This part is made of orange rubber and is less than half an inch in diameter. It has a rounded top and a slightly pointed bottom, and is sold individually.

Frig and freezer work good but occasionally at least a couple times a day there is a loud bang-explosion slamming type noise that happens and have checked the unit and all is clean and just can't figure out what is causing it as it all of a sudden started to happen and doesn't seem to be getting any better or worse. It is quite loud.

Hi Richard, Thank you for the question. I suggest checking the fan blades. Make sure they are clean and not bogged down. Make sure the fan is running normal and not slow. In most cases the bang is coming from the condenser fan motor, Part Number: PS1483567. Hope this helps!

On the condenser fan motor you suggested i look at and replace if needed i was wondering if this motor runs continuous and fast as will pull the reefer out again to check it out before ordering and any information you can give me in advance would be appreciated. Thank you part #ps1483567
For model number PSS25NGMAWW
Hello Richard, Thank you for your inquiry. The fan is designed to operate anytime the compressor is operating, and the compressor runs when the temperature sensor signals that the temperature inside the fridge rises above it's set point, so it will start the cycle to push the air through the fridge and cool it off, so if the condenser fan is running continuously, the fridge may be getting warmer more quickly than normal. Hope this helps!

Touching the metal cover in the back, if you pull that cover it will minimize or go away.Which part i need fan motor or ?

For model number Pshs6pgzbess
Hi Rene, hard to say, I imagine if the fan its self is touching the lid you may have to replace the fan blade PS1021949. Thank you for your question and good luck with your repair!
