The fan is to take away the heat generated by the cooling system.
It doesn't affect the temperature directly, apart from allowing the thermostat to work properly.
If you don't replace the fan, things will overheat and burn out = no fridge !

Works like the fan in your car, if the fan doesn't turn car will overheat. If the fan doesn't turn in your refrigerator, the coils will freeze.
The evaporator fan circulates the air across the evaporator coils to transfer heat to the cold refrigerant and lower the temperature to around zero. A certain portion of this air is also diverted into the refrigerator section to cool that area; the amount diverted depends on the control setting. If the fan is defective, the air will not be circulated, the coil will eventually freeze up, and the freezer and the refrigerator sections will start to get warmer. Replacing the fan is simple, but may involve removing the panels inside the freezer. Just take your time removing the bad one and installing the new one, but be sure to UNPLUG THE FRIDGE!
