Mark September 08, 2022 for Model Number 79572049316 I recently removed the water button lever from my 79572049316 LG refrigerator. I found a YouTube video that showed how the person slid the bottom of the piece to the left and then pulled up on the right side edge. That seemed to work for me. Putting the piece back in was much more problematic. I tried to reverse my steps but the catch-points on the bottom of the piece (MBG64224802) would not slide back into position. I eventually broke the plastic arms and needed to purchase a new piece. Any hints on how best to get the lever back into the face of the door? Thank you
1 Answer Mark, with the dispenser assembly removed, the lever MBG64224802 can be placed in with the arms in at the same time as the hinge bracket. This will allow just enough movement to be able to get the bracket into place. Read More...

Anthony January 30, 2021 for Model Number LFXS29766S/01 My LG Refrigerator water dispenser lever suddenly became loose and wobbly. During my troubleshooting, I removed the lever from the dispenser, where I found on the backside (4) tabs but only (1) spring was in place, where it appeared (3) were missing. The spring are just standard round springs (not the ones I've seen in the parts list that have the flat straight ends) My QUESTION: Should there be more that (1) spring and if so, are these round springs available to purchase? Thanks for any help you can provide.
1 Answer Anthony, There would only be one spring behind the dispenser lever if there was supposed to be one. Normally the lever will have a spring on the rod that holds the lever in place and not behind it. It does not appear as though the spring is available as part of this unit. Read More...
Dale September 02, 2020 for Model Number LFXS29766S I have a 3-year-old LG refrigerator and my granddaughter pulled off the water button lever. I have two small springs and the new part. I'm not sure how it connects, does it just snap back into the holes? Thank you!
1 Answer Dale, the water dispenser lever MBG64348704 should press back into place as long as the retaining pins on the dispenser cover MCK66542801 have not been damaged. Read More...
Mike March 11, 2020 for Model Number LMX25981ST Can this be installed without removing the whole ice/water faceplate, tray, etc.? I'd like to replace it myself as the two tabs on top have broke off but am unsure if it clips in by sliding up or some other way. Any trick or pictures/video would be great. If not, I can make one and send it your way, just want to be sure I don't break the tabs off trying to force it in. I'll also look at the diagram to see if there's a photo of the back to see how it clips in. Thanks
1 Answer Mike, due to the spring that is used on this lever, the installation would require the faceplate is removed. Using a small putty knife, the faceplate can be removed by gently applying pressure to release the locking tabs from the door frame. Read More...
Dave February 17, 2019 for Model Number LMX25984SB At the back of my broken button lever it says MBG429683 #2. Can I use MBG42907106 as replacement, if not do you have the part to replace? Please help. Thank you for your assistance.
1 Answer Dave, The part listed for your unit is MBG42907105. We always point out to use the recommended part for fit and function issues. Read More...
Debbie January 22, 2019 for Model Number LFX31925ST I have an LG LFX31925ST french door refrigerator with a broken water dispenser lever. I ordered a new lever but it won't stay on. The original lever had 2 springs, the replacement does not. I don't know if this is the issue or if a tab is missing on the panel part of the dispenser. Can you help please, we are thirsty!!
1 Answer Debbie, the panel MCK66542801 that the dispenser paddle goes onto should have 4 connector arms for the paddle. If these arms are broken, then this can cause the paddle to not stay on. The springs are responsible for pushing the paddle out away from the engaged position and are interchanged from the old paddle to the new paddle. Read More...
Dave May 08, 2018 for Model Number LFX25975ST I am assuming that part # AP5016769 is the water dispenser button on my LG fridge model # LFX25975ST. The present one gets stuck and I'm afraid my kids will flood the house by leaving it on. Is it simple to replace? Hopefully I don't have to pull out the entire dispenser panel to replace it. I looks like it has only two tabs on the top of the button and an assembly that goes well into the dispenser , but I don't want to break anything. Thanks for any replacement directions.
1 Answer Dave, Yes this will be the button lever for your unit and the dispenser will need to be removed to replaced this part. To do this you will want to remove the drip tray and push down on the area where the drip tray was and pull out. This should pop the dispenser cover out. Read More...
