Extended Product Information

FAQs

How do I know if my damper motor is broken?

Symptoms include uneven cooling between fridge and freezer, constant running of the compressor, or frost buildup in the fridge compartment.

Is this motor compatible with non-Hoover brands?

It is designed specifically for Hoover and Candy American-style fridges; please cross-reference your specific model number before purchase.

Can I replace this myself?

Yes, if you are comfortable with basic appliance repair and safety protocols. Ensure the fridge is unplugged during the entire process.

What is the equivalent part number for this motor?

This unit replaces original part numbers 2501100018 and 49117774.

Does the motor come with instructions?

No, it is a replacement part. It is recommended to observe the removal process of your old motor to guide your installation of the new one.

Does the colour of the motor casing matter?

The colour does not affect performance, but ensure the motor type 'PBZA-1760-15A' matches your existing unit exactly.

Troubleshooting

Fridge temperature fluctuates wildly.

Check if the damper flap is stuck; the motor may be receiving power but the gears are stripped.

Noisy clicking sound coming from the back of the fridge.

This often indicates a failing motor gear or an obstruction preventing the damper from completing its cycle.

Freezer is cold, but the fridge is room temperature.

Verify that the damper motor is opening the airflow passage. If the motor is dead, the cold air is being trapped in the freezer.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Cost-effective alternative to expensive original equipment manufacturer parts.
  • Restores proper cooling cycles and temperature stability.
  • Compatible with common Hoover and Candy American-style fridge models.
  • Easy to identify based on the specific motor type: PBZA-1760-15A.

Cons

  • Requires technical skill to install, involving disassembly of fridge panels.
  • Not universal; limited specifically to compatible American-style fridge designs.
  • Requires careful handling of wiring connectors during replacement.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation of this motor typically requires removing the rear panel inside the fridge or freezer compartment, depending on the specific model layout. Always disconnect the appliance from the mains power supply before starting the repair. Use caution when removing plastic housing clips to avoid cracking the interior lining.

Compatibility Note: This part is equivalent to 2501100018 and 49117774. It is essential to confirm that your existing motor is stamped with 'PBZA-1760-15A' or listed in your appliance's parts manual. To maintain the life of the new motor, ensure the air vents in your fridge are never blocked by food containers, as excessive back-pressure can strain the motor mechanism over time.
