Robert F Kissimmee , FL June 23, 2017 Water dispenser lever broke Ordered the entire control panel. Took only 30 minutes to replace. Once I received the new part, it was obvious how easy it would be to replace. A thin putty knife and a little care not to damage the surrounding surface was all that was needed.

David H Rogersville , MO June 05, 2017 Display was delaminating due to previous defrost problem when the ice melted in the bin I was able to gently pry out the old "box" with screwdriver and using an old credit card to protect the door edge. It took quite a bit of prying around the entire area, but came off without a problem ultimately. It would have been easier to have a second set of hands to hold the unit while removing and reinstalling the wiring plugs from the old to the new, but I was able to do it with one person. Screwdriver helped here as one of the plugs had a small catch that needed some pressure to release. Snapping the new unit in was relatively easy, but had to pay attention to the overall alignment to be sure it was in the exact right spot before putting pressure on it to snap it in. If you are careful and take your time this will not be a difficult install, just be patient as you are prying it out and snapping it back in.

Bryan G Ballston Lake , NY November 23, 2020 Appliance: LG Refrigerator LMX31985ST Ice dispenser stopped working and electronic display was delaminating I removed the original dispenser cover using a putty knife with masking tape over the end to protect the fridge finish. It took me about 15 minutes to get the cover off as it was the first time I had done this. It was a little nerve wracking but finally was able to get the lower right corner to pop free. There is a video on youtube of someone using a paint scraper, I think the paint scrapers thickness would have made it easier to get the cover off but all I had was the putty knife. After the right corner popped free it was pretty much like the youtube video showed. Getting it back on was easier but watch the wiring bundles, make sure you don't pinch them when pushing the cover into place. I put the left side in place first and then started applying pressure to seat the snaps. The left side snaps are more rounded (as opposed to triangle shaped) so it took more pressure to get those seated but they finally popped into place. Read More...
