Lg Bumper, Bushing, Grommet Parts

The Hinge Bushing is an OEM part for LG refrigerators. It serves as a crucial component in the door hinge mechanism, ensuring smooth and stable operation when opening and closing the refrigerator door.

You should replace this hinge bushing if it becomes worn out or damaged. Common causes of a bad hinge bushing include constant use leading to wear and tear, misalignment of the door, or physical damage due to impact.

Symptoms of a bad hinge bushing include:

• Difficulty in opening or closing the door
• The door sagging or not aligning properly
• Unusual noises like squeaking or grinding when the door is moved

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

The Front Evaporator Motor Grommet is an OEM part for LG refrigerators. This grommet cushions and secures the evaporator motor, reducing vibrations and noise during operation to ensure efficient cooling.

Causes of a bad grommet can include prolonged use leading to material fatigue, exposure to extreme temperatures, or physical damage from accidental impacts. A damaged grommet can result in increased noise and potential misalignment of the evaporator motor.

Symptoms of a bad evaporator motor grommet include:

• Increased noise from the refrigerator
• Vibrations or rattling sounds
• Poor cooling performance
• The evaporator motor becoming loose

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

The Rear Evaporator Motor Grommet is an OEM part for LG refrigerators. It's designed to secure and cushion the evaporator motor, ensuring it remains in place and operates quietly. This grommet plays a crucial role in minimizing vibrations and noise from the motor, which can otherwise lead to a disruptive refrigerator operation.

Causes of a bad Rear Evaporator Motor Grommet can result from deterioration due to cooling and thawing cycles in the refrigerator. Physical damage during cleaning or servicing may cause a loose motor fit.  

Symptoms of a malfunctioning Rear Evaporator Motor Grommet include:

• Unusual noises or vibrations from the back of the refrigerator.
• The evaporator motor shifting out of place, which can affect cooling efficiency.
• Increased wear on the evaporator motor due to lack of proper cushioning and support.

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

The Damper Motor Support is an OEM part for LG refrigerators. It holds the damper motor in place, ensuring proper air flow between the refrigerator and freezer compartments. This support is essential for maintaining the correct temperature balance within the appliance.

Causes of a bad damper motor support can include wear and tear over time, physical damage from impacts, or exposure to moisture that can weaken the support structure. A faulty support can lead to improper functioning of the damper motor, affecting the refrigerator's cooling efficiency.

Symptoms of a bad Damper Motor Support include:

• Inconsistent temperatures between refrigerator and freezer
• Unusual noises coming from the damper area
• Visible damage or cracks in the support
• Reduced cooling efficiency

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

This replacement switch cam interfaces with a lever or knob to actuate a microswitch. It restores reliable on/off signaling and the positive feel/engagement of the related control or latch mechanism when the original cam wears or cracks.

• Translates lever or rotary motion into precise switch activation
• Ensures the switch travels fully to open and close as intended
• A worn or broken cam can cause intermittent operation or functions that won't start/stop as expected
• Helps bring back a defined "click" or detent at the control/lever

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing; turn off gas/water if applicable
• Access the switch or latch assembly; remove any knob, trim, or cover as needed
• Note the cam's orientation/indexing before removal; take photos for reference and transfer any springs/clips
• After reassembly, manually test the mechanism to ensure smooth switch actuation before restoring power

This compressor damper is a vibration-isolating mount that sits between the sealed-system compressor and the chassis. It cushions the compressor to reduce noise, limit vibration transfer, and help keep refrigerant lines from being stressed.

• Isolates the compressor from the frame to absorb start/stop shock and vibration
• Helps reduce humming, rattling, or buzzing from the back/bottom of the appliance
• Replaces a damper that's cracked, flattened, hardened, or missing
• Can help if the compressor rocks or the unit vibrates excessively

• Disconnect power and pull the unit forward for access; remove rear/service panel if present
• Support the compressor to relieve load on the mounts before removing fasteners
• Match orientation; transfer any sleeves/spacers from the old damper to the new one
• Ensure the compressor sits level and that tubing is not strained before restoring power
