Though the replacement motor is a bit weak and I am not sure how long it would work. Put the motor back and the fan now works correctly. The motor assembly was simple and allowed me to change the rotor orientation. But later, I thought why don't reverse the rotor, so that it turns opposite direction. Disappointed, I decided to call in for service and put the old motor back. Since it is an AC motor, reversing the terminals won't change the rotor direction. The fan should blow air into the freezer from behind (the cooling coils), but the new fan motor was blowing warm air into the cooling fins. After careful looking, it seemed the direction of the motor was reverse. Since the original fan was not working, I did not know which direction the fan should run. But something was wrong, the bottom section was not cooling enough. Got back home and replaced the motor in no time and was happy that it worked. I was worried about the rotation direction of the motor, the shopkeeper assured me that all Freezer fan motors have standard direction. It didn't looked as good as the original one, but the dimensions matched. After a few strolls, found another Prakash stores and the small shop indeed had the motor. To my dismay, I found the shop closed and was about to leave. Headed to Chikpet and enquired in a few electrical shops and got to know that one Prakash Electricals stocks the replacement motors. Enquired at a few places and got to know that I need to look at Chikpet for electrical appliance replacement parts. Went to SP road (The place in Bangalore for all electronics/computer spares)В and found most shops closed being Sunday.

Took it out and the next day set out in search of a replacement motor. I opened up the freezer back plane and found that the fan motor was indeed not working. Since it was a Saturday late evening and the service call would not happen until Monday, I decided to give it a try to fix myself. Found that the fan in the freezer was not working. We were back, switched on the fridge and got a burning smell after a while. We took a vacation for 10 days and decided to keep our fridge switched off.
