I needed to replace the actuator or the ice dispenser door. The LG manufacturer did not make it easy to access the ice door actuator motor. I had read quite a bit online about the difficulty of removing the front panel to access and replace the part.
I finally found a YouTube link which was extremely helpful.
I was able to remove the panel and replace the part in about 20-30 min.
The new actuator part was in the 'open' position so prior to mounting it, I had to plug it and push the ice button to get it to move to the 'closed' position for mounting.
The part was an exact match and fit and worked perfectly.
