Causes of a faulty water filter can include general usage over time, exposure to high levels of contaminants in the water supply, or physical damage or clogging of the filter media.

This OEM LG part is also compatible with some Kenmore refrigerator models.

This small retaining clip secures its mating component within the refrigerator assembly, keeping parts properly seated and reducing vibration. Replacing a damaged or missing clip helps restore a snug fit and reliable operation of the attached piece.

• Holds the designated part firmly in place within the assembly
• Maintains proper alignment to prevent movement or rattling
• Helps ensure panels, ducts, or lines stay secured during use
• Symptoms can include loose or sagging parts, vibration noises, or components that won't stay attached

• Disconnect power; if working near the water system, also shut off the water supply
• Note the original orientation and placement before removal
• Fully seat the mating component, then press the new clip into place without forcing
• Check operation before reassembly

This sensor PCB assembly detects and relays sensor signals to the appliance control system, restoring accurate sensor feedback and communication when the original sensor board fails or malfunctions. Designed as a direct replacement board. What it does:

• Reads sensor inputs and converts them to signals the main control board can interpret.
• Replaces a failed or intermittent sensor board that causes incorrect readings or sensor-related error codes.
• Can resolve symptoms such as unexpected sensor faults, control errors, or appliances not responding to sensor changes.
• Matches the OEM board function; verify model compatibility before ordering.

• Always disconnect power before servicing to avoid shock or shorting the board.
• Use ESD precautions and handle the PCB by its edges to prevent static damage.
• Ensure all connectors are fully seated and the board is mounted in the original orientation.

The Ice Bucket Assembly is an OEM part for LG refrigerators. It is designed to collect and store ice produced by the icemaker, ensuring a convenient and organized storage solution within the freezer.

Causes of a bad ice bucket assembly can include damage from frequent handling, cracks or breaks due to impact, or issues with the internal components such as the auger or motor. Over time, these issues can impair the functionality of the ice bucket, leading to inefficient ice storage or dispensing problems.

Symptoms of a bad ice bucket assembly include:

• Cracks or visible damage to the bucket
• Ice not dispensing properly
• The bucket not fitting securely in place
• Excessive noise during ice dispensing

This OEM LG part is also compatible with Sears/Kenmore.

This pipe holder is a small plastic clip that secures tubing and small pipes inside the appliance, helping keep lines organized and preventing rubbing or disconnection. It restores proper routing and reduces vibration-related noises. What it does:

• Holds and secures water, drain, or refrigerant tubing to prevent sagging and chafing
• Keeps lines routed away from moving parts to reduce wear and noise
• Helps maintain proper tube alignment to avoid strain on fittings
• Commonly replaced when the original clip is cracked, broken, or missing

• Disconnect power and water before working on the appliance
• Inspect surrounding tubing and fittings for damage when replacing the clip
• Typically installs as a push-fit or snap-on clip; use gentle pressure and avoid forcing
• Replace broken or brittle clips to prevent tubing damage or leaks

This lower ice bank door hinge secures and pivots the freezer's ice bank door so it opens and closes smoothly, helping maintain proper sealing and ice dispensing alignment. Designed as a direct replacement for the original hinge. What it does:

• Supports the ice bank door, providing a stable pivot point for opening and closing
• Keeps the ice bank door aligned to maintain an effective seal and proper operation
• Prevents sagging or binding that can interfere with ice dispensing or door function
• Restores correct door movement after hinge wear or damage

• Use basic hand tools; keep power to the appliance off and unplug before starting
• Handle the ice bank and door carefully to avoid damaging the trim or ice chute
• Reuse original fasteners only if undamaged; replace damaged screws to ensure secure mounting

This door gasket seals the refrigerator door to the cabinet to keep cold air in and moisture out. Replacing a worn or deformed gasket restores a tight seal for proper cooling and helps reduce frost and condensation around the door opening. What it does:

• Forms an airtight seal between the door and cabinet frame
• Helps maintain stable internal temperature and humidity
• Helps prevent frost, icing, and condensation near the door
• Helps with symptoms like visible tears, gaps, poor door sealing, or warm spots/frost near the gasket

• 1 refrigerator door gasket

• Disconnect power before servicing
• Warm the new gasket (soak in warm water or gently heat) to improve flexibility
• Remove the old gasket and clean the mounting groove/sealing surface
• Press the new gasket fully into the groove/retainer; adjust door alignment if needed

The Ice Door Handle is an OEM replacement part for LG refrigerators. It allows users to easily access ice and water from the external ice/water dispenser. Handles experience substantial daily use as people frequently obtain water/ice. Over the years, plastic hinges can degrade from repeated opening/closing stresses.

Causes include fatigue cracks along hinge points from perpetual flexing. General wear and tear as well as occasional impacts also deteriorate structure.

Symptoms of a bad ice door handle include:

• Loose, wobbly, or dysfunctional opening/closing capability
• Cracks around mounting brackets compromise integrity
• Detached handle pieces preventing access to ice/water dispenser
• Excessive opening force required or inability to fully open/close

This OEM LG replacement is also compatible with select Sears/Kenmore refrigerators.

The Ice Bank Door Gasket is an OEM part for LG refrigerators. This gasket is designed to seal the ice bank door, ensuring a tight closure to maintain optimal temperatures inside the ice compartment. By preventing warm air from entering, it helps preserve the quality and quantity of ice produced by the icemaker.

Causes of a bad gasket can include wear and tear from frequent opening and closing of the door, physical damage from cleaning or mishandling, or degradation over time due to exposure to temperature changes.

Symptoms of a bad Ice Bank Door Gasket include:

• Ice melting or clumping in the ice compartment
• Frost buildup around the ice bank door
• Increased energy consumption
• The gasket appearing cracked, brittle, or deformed

This OEM LG part is also compatible with Sears/Kenmore.
