The evaporator fan in our Kenmore Elite refrigerator stopped working, causing the fridge section to stay warm while the freezer was running OK. I replaced the fan with a new approved substitute (Maytag 12013211Q), but still nothing at all happens, even though I'm getting voltage at the terminals. Suspecting a defective new motor, I also tried jumping the terminals to a 115V muffin fan that I know works, but with no result. The voltage coming out of the terminals is 107 volts. Is it possible that this is too low to drive this fan? I can't imagine why else might cause it not to work. The fridge has been on the same dedicated outlet for 10 years, and I hear the compressor fan running fine.
