Kathy April 13, 2014 for Model Number LG Model # LFX25950SB Need to replace cap door assembly part #5007JA3006R. How do I take apart the front to access the part to be replaced?
1 Answer Hello Kathy. Disconnect funnel and button assembly by pulling down and forward. Remove display frame Assembly by making a gap between a display frame Assembly and funnel Assembly. with a blade screwdriver and pulling it forward. The cover dispenser is attached with a hook. The Display Assembly can be connected by pressing the top of the dispenser cover and pushing it after separating the Display Frame from its housing. Loosen four screws with a Phillips screwdriver and pull the funnel Assembly to disconnect. The Duct Cap Assembly can be disconnected if the hold lever connecting screw is loosened with a Phillips driver. To install the Duct Cap Assembly, insert one end of the spring into the right hole of the dispenser lever and insert the other end into the right hole in the top part of the dispenser. Then attach the holder at the solenoid switch. Read More...
Jw Brigman December 29, 2013 for Model Number lg lrsc26980TT The ice machine is making ice and going to the door but will not drop out of the flap.
1 Answer JW, You will want to check to make sure that there is power getting to the dispenser solenoid to see if it is bad. In most cases the dispenser solenoid has failed and caused the door arm to be bad so it may be necessary to get the Duct cap assembly and the dispenser solenoid. Read More...
Bubba October 18, 2013 for Model Number 795.77562600 Ice flapper will not open to dispense ice. How does it come apart, from the front of door or through inside.
1 Answer Hello Bubba. The dispenser housing unsnaps from the door through the front of the unit. Read More...
Emory October 08, 2013 for Model Number LSC27950ST Having problem with LG refrigerator. First, ice door quit working. LG repair man came and took water and ice dispenser section out of door. Lever was broken off the end of the flapper (cap assembly, duct). He replaced with new cap assy and the plunger that activates it. Worked for a few days and broke again. Then he replaced cap assy again and the user control board in dispenser. Worked good for a couple of weeks then light in dispenser started flashing on and off (like morse code),and ticking noises coming from the main board area on top of fridge. Then it started dispensing water on its on (maybe 8 ozs at a time). Have to keep glass under it at all times now because we dont ever know when it will dispense. Flapper for ice is now broken again so no ice dispenses through door. I now believe the refrigerator is possessed. Still ticks from main board and light flashes on and off on dispenser. Could the main board the problem? Thanks, Emory
1 Answer Emory, With there being a clicking noise from the main board then yes the main board would need to be replaced. Read More...
Capn J. March 27, 2013 for Model Number 79577563600 What is the circuitry on the AP4438395 (5007JA3006R) Cap Assembly? There is a two wire connector. What does it do?
1 Answer Hello Capn, These are the wires to the ice door heater. I keeps the ice door warm enough to prevent moisture in the room air, (humidity), from condensing and puddling in the tray. Some units still use them and some models have dis-continued these. Read More...
Marco P January 23, 2013 for Model Number LRSC26940ST At the ice dispenser the round plastic cover stays at the open position and air is coming in the freezer compartment, I have to push closed from under the ice dispenser to keeped closed all the way. Now I have another problem no water at the ice maker tray only water at the door dispenser, have any ideas?
1 Answer Hello Marco, The dispenser door not closing would be either the solenoid 6421JB2002R or the ice door arm 5007JA3006R. You would want to pull the dispenser to check to see which. The icemaker issue would be an unrelated issue. You will want to put through test cycle to see if it goes into test mode. There should be a button at the bottom of the icemaker motor. Push button and this will allow unit to cycle. If unit cycles but no water then check to make sure that the fill tube is not clogged. If clear then you will want to check for voltage at the water valve 5221JA2006D. When the icemaker finishes cycle you should have 12 vdc at the water valve if no voltage then check the circuit at control board. If no power to valve still then you would want to replace icemaker 5989JA1005D. Read More...
Angela November 16, 2012 for Model Number Lg lfx21960st I changed the ice maker already. Still no water or ice come out from dispenser. And it doesn't make ice. My husband believes that the cap is not working. Please help
1 Answer Hello Angela. You need to check and see if the water filter is good on the unit. If so, you may have a bad water valve on the unit. If there is power to the water valve and no water, you will need to replace the valve. You can test this with a multi-meter TJMA-DMT3. Here is a link on how to use a multi-meter. http://forum.appliancepartspros.com/oven-repair-including-ranges-cooktops/4810-how-check-continuity-ohmmeter.html Read More...
Matt September 27, 2012 for Model Number LRSC 26925TT I put the spring over the dispsenser lever and inserted one end of the spring into the hole in the lever. Unfortunately I don't see a hole in the top part of the dispenser. Am I missing something or do you just bend the other end of the spring and simply let it rest against the dispenser? thank you!
1 Answer Hello Matt. Correct. Let the spring rest against the housing applying tension so the door closes. Read More...
Pete August 30, 2012 for Model Number LFX25950SB Hi. I hope you can help with our nutty fridge! The ice makers (for lack of better terms) "trapdoor" does not close when it should. About 5 seconds after dispensing ice the door should close by itself. I do hear a "click" like the solenoid releasing but the door (more often than not, does not close.) If I forget to check it I can have a lot of melted ice a while later. So, I have to push the door back manually although it does not feel like it is a mechanical issues but rather like an electromagnetic resistance. Any idea what part should be swapped out, the main board for the ice maker? I still haven't taken it apart to take a physical look but I know that manually closing the door is not good in the long term. Oh, I should also mention that I can feel cold air coming from that area and there is dampness in that area. So, it looks like the trapdoor is closed but not firmly enough to keep ice from melting. I hope you can help. My wife wants a new fridge but I think this should be a fairly easy fix. I'm an accomplished do-it-yourselfer :-)Thanks! Pete
1 Answer Hi Pete. It sounds like the duct assy. cap part # 6421JB2002R is not closing can be caused by the reversing valve plunger part # 5007JA3006R is sticky. The internal plunger can be worn out and dragging. Insert the duct cap part # in our part search page and it will show the installation procedure. Thank You. Read More...
Vlad August 13, 2012 for Model Number AP4438395 In order to replace the Cap Assembly duct (AP4438395), how best to disconnect the button assembly and the display frame without damaging the fridge, or damaging/breaking some of the parts that need to be removed? Are there any hooks that need to be released first in order to carefully remove the necessary parts? What tools do you suggest to use when doing this on your own? Many thanks in advance for your help!
1 Answer Hello Vlad. We will need your model number to help you with this. Please post your model number with a new question on the parts page. http://www.appliancepartspros.com/modelnumber_locator.aspx Read More...
