Description

This ice maker drive gear replaces the small plastic gear that turns the ice-eject/auger mechanism so your ice maker can harvest and dispense cubes reliably. Fits compatible LG ice maker assemblies. What it does

• Transfers motor rotation to the ice-eject/auger mechanism so ice cubes are pushed out or advanced.
• Commonly replaced when cubes aren't being ejected, ice builds up, or the mechanism spins without moving the ejector.
• Works with the ice maker's actuator/motor to synchronize harvest and fill cycles.
• Small, precision-molded gear designed for quiet, consistent operation in the ice maker assembly.

What's included

• One ice maker drive gear.

Install notes

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing to avoid shock or accidental motor operation.
• Remove the ice maker module and inspect surrounding gears/shaft for wear or debris before installing.
• Press the gear onto the motor shaft or replace the internal gear assembly as required; do not force or hammer into place.
• If other components show wear (motor, shaft, or companion gears), replace them to prevent repeat failure.
