Should be three clips that fold over the outer cover pry up clips with a screw driver.

check the ventilation area maybe theirs lot of dust or dirty...remove cover anf clean....

Try taking a vacuum cleaner to it and take all the lint and dust off of it it may be clogged

Remove the dust bin and disassemble it clean out all lint and dust that could stop the impeller from turning. Once it is cleaned out test the fan motor with a powersupply on the terminals to see if the fan turns. If it does not, then replace the fan unit.

Pull the refrig out , and remove the bottom panel covering the compressor , and make sure the fan , cooling the compressor , is working . The blade could have an obstruction . If the fan isn't turning , replace the fan motor . Also , make sure the bottom coils are clean of dust , lint , pet hair , etc .

You need to pull the refrig out and remove the back panel , covering the compressor and fan . If the fan is not running , check for something caught in the fan blade . If nothing is found then replace the fan motor . Also make sure the coils at the bottom in front , are clean of dust , lint , pet hair , etc .
The fan , helps keep the compressor and the coils cool , including the ones behind the middle column .

The fan which cools the compressor , needs to be replaced or checked for fan blade obstruction . Pull the refrig out and remove the lower panel , covering the compressor and fan . Check to see if something has caught in the fan blade . If not and the fan is not working , replace the motor . ALSO , check the coils in the bottom front of the refrig , to make sure they are clean of dust , lint , pet hair , etc .

Yes , motor is bad . May not start , next time cuts off . The fan in the back by the compressor , is called the condensor fan motor . I would suggest cleaning the coils in front at the bottom , of dust , lint , pet hair , etc , before replaceing the fan motor . Also , clean the fan blade before reinstalling the motor .

There are 4 small screws in the rim between the ribs accessible from the back. Remove the screws and the cover will come off.
