The 14 Cube Ice Maker is an OEM part for LG refrigerators. This ice maker is responsible for automatically producing batches of cube ice on demand to keep extra ice readily available in the freezer. 

Causes of a bad ice maker can include failures from usage over time, clogged lines preventing proper water flow, or impaired mechanical components. 

Symptoms of a bad ice maker include:

• Reduced or no ice production at all  
• Water buildup or overflowing due to malfunctioning fill valves
• Grinding or crunching noises from impaired mechanical parts
• Error codes or fault messages for ice production issues

This OEM LG replacement is also compatible with Sears/Kenmore refrigerator models.

NOTE: The small wire connector features three wires for easy setup. If your original ice maker has 6 wires then order part number AEQ73110205.

The Ice Maker Assembly Kit is an OEM replacement part for LG French door refrigerators. As a comprehensive repair solution, it includes the ice maker, drive motor, assembly, and all necessary mounting hardware.

This assembly stores ice and delivers it from the ice maker to the dispenser. Replace it when the bin is cracked, warped, or its drive components are damaged, causing weak dispensing, jams, or being stuck on one ice type.

• Stores ice and interfaces with the dispenser system to deliver cubes or crushed ice
• Resolves no or weak ice dispensing
• Corrects grinding/clicking noises or auger jamming from a damaged bin
• Addresses visible cracks, broken tabs, or a bucket that won't seat securely

• Disconnect power to the refrigerator before servicing
• Open the door and pull the old bucket straight out; depress any release tab if equipped
• Align and seat the new assembly fully so the drive coupling engages—do not force it
• Restore power and test the dispenser (cube and crush selections)

The Ice Maker and Auger Motor Assembly is an OEM part for LG refrigerators. This assembly is responsible for both producing ice and dispensing it from the ice maker. The ice maker produces ice cubes, while the auger motor drives the auger to move ice from the ice bin to the dispenser chute, ensuring a steady flow of ice whenever needed.

Causes of a bad assembly can include electrical issues, wear and tear from regular use, or damage to the motor or ice-making components. A malfunctioning assembly can lead to inconsistent ice production and dispensing problems.

Symptoms of a bad ice maker and auger motor assembly include:

• No ice production or insufficient ice
• The auger not dispensing ice properly
• Unusual noises from the ice maker area
• Ice jams or clumps in the ice bin

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

This ice maker assembly replaces a failed refrigerator ice maker to restore automatic ice production and reliable cube harvesting. Use it to address lack of ice or irregular ice cycling so your appliance makes ice again. What it does:

• Freezes and cycles water into ice, then harvests cubes into the ice bin.
• Common replacement for no ice production, reduced output, or an ice maker that won't cycle.
• Helps isolate ice-maker failures from water-supply or valve issues when diagnosing ice problems.

• Always disconnect power and shut off the water supply before beginning service.
• Some installs require removing shelves, drawers or interior panels.
• Basic hand tools are typically all that's needed; handle electrical connectors and the fill tube carefully.
• If issues continue after replacement, verify water supply pressure and the water inlet valve.

This ice bucket assembly stores and delivers ice to the dispenser. Replacing a damaged bucket restores smooth, reliable dispensing and helps prevent jams when the original container is cracked, worn, or no longer engaging the drive.

• Stores finished ice beneath the icemaker and positions it for dispensing
• Interfaces with the dispenser drive to move ice into the chute when activated
• Helps maintain proper alignment for consistent cube delivery
• Common symptoms: cracked or broken container/tabs, ice won't dispense or jams, grinding/skipping during dispense

This ice maker lever is the mechanical arm that controls ice production by interacting with the ice maker's on/off and level-sensing mechanism. Replacing a broken or missing lever restores proper operation and helps prevent overfilling or no-ice conditions.

• Acts as the ice maker's shut-off arm to regulate ice production
• Lowers to allow ice making; raises to stop when the bin is full
• Common symptoms: ice maker won't stop making ice, no ice when arm is stuck up, broken/missing lever, lever won't stay in position
• Helps ensure consistent, reliable ice production control

• Disconnect power and shut off water before service
• Remove the ice bin to access the ice maker; gently release the lever from its pivots/linkage
• Note lever orientation; transfer and reuse any original springs, clips, or fasteners
• Reinstall components, restore power, and verify free up/down movement of the arm

This is the condenser fan motor for select LG-built refrigerators. It drives the outside rear fan that pulls air across the condenser coils and over the compressor to remove heat so the refrigerator can cool efficiently.

• Circulates air through the condenser section to dissipate heat
• Helps prevent overheating of the compressor
• Common failure symptoms: fridge not cooling well, compressor running hot, loud or grinding noise from rear bottom, fan not spinning
• May run intermittently or seize when failing

• Disconnect power before servicing; use cut-resistant gloves
• Access from the rear lower service panel near the compressor
• Note wire orientation and fan blade position before removal
• After replacement, ensure the fan spins freely and no wiring contacts the blade

This AC motor powers the appliance's fan or blower to move air through the system. Replacing a worn motor restores proper airflow to support cooling/ventilation and protect internal components from overheating. What it does:

• Rotates the fan/blower to circulate air through the appliance
• Helps maintain proper temperatures and component cooling
• Common failure signs: fan won't start, starts then stalls, weak airflow, loud humming/grinding, overheating or safety shutoffs
• Often required when motor bearings seize or windings fail

• 1 AC motor

• Disconnect power and allow hot components to cool before servicing
• Note wire positions; transfer any brackets, grommets, or the fan blade from the original motor if reused
• Clear debris and restore power and verify smooth, quiet airflow
