Evaporator Fan Motor
This motor is responsible for circulating air over the cooling coils and throughout the cabinet; when the internal bearings fail, they produce a loud grinding or whirring noise. The mechanical degradation slows the fan's RPM, which drastically reduces convective heat transfer and prevents the refrigerator from maintaining set-point temperatures.

Condenser Fan Motor
Located near the compressor, this fan rejects heat from the high-pressure refrigerant; if the motor fails, the refrigerator cannot shed thermal energy. This leads to high head pressures and a 'warm' interior, often accompanied by a loud buzzing or rattling from the rear of the unit as the motor struggles to rotate.

Defrost Bi-Metal Thermostat
If this sensor fails to terminate the defrost heater or fails to initiate a cycle, excessive frost builds up on the evaporator coils. The noise occurs when the ice accumulation reaches the evaporator fan blades, causing a loud 'clacking' or 'striking' sound, while the ice block acts as an insulator that prevents air cooling.
