Lg ACQ85430239 Front Panel Display Assembly OEM Part

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.

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.

Replacing the assembly panel was easy, and the part worked great.

Disconnect the power to the appliance First Changed out the Front Panel Display Asm. We used a thin blade screwdriver to pop the old panel out. Unplugged everything on the panel, then plugged it back in. Insert the panel back in place.

I ordered the entire water and ice dispenser and refrigerator control unit from AppliancePartsPros.com and then watched the video for the removal of the old one and installation of the new one, at least three times so that I had the sequence memorized and felt comfortable with the process. Thanks for providing that, by the way. Then I opened the breaker for the refrigerator and used TWO putty knives, not one ... 'cause sometimes you need the extra one to hold in place the work you had already done loosening the unit. Once the unit was out, I removed the wiring harness, noting that all of the plugs were unique (so I could not screw up putting it back together). Then I cleaned the inside of the refrigerator compartment with white vinegar (we had potassium salts build up from our water softener). After that, I hooked up the new unit and literally popped it in. Closed the breaker and reset the parameters to those we had set with the old unit. This was a very easy replacement. And I am so glad we found AppliancePartsPros.com.
