Questions & Answers

For Lg Refrigerator Compressor Assembly (Part Number: OEM20922081)

Tom for Model Number LFXC24796D/00

I have and LG refrigerator which has recently had a compressor replaced and the PCB software updated by a "LG certified technician" and he didnt really seem to know what he was doing. After it was replaced, I let it run for about 5 hr but unplugged it after it wasnt working. I have a good friend that is a refrigeration tech and he came to take a look at it. There was a leak where the technician brazed in the compressor, so he fixed it and added refrigerant but he said the compressor wasn't pumping refrigerant. My question is how would the compressor run if the software update wasn't done correctly? Would i just need to update the software or would the compressor have been damaged already and need to be replaced again?

1 Answer

Tom, If the software update was not done properly or at all then the update will need to be done correctly. If the software update does not correct the issue then it could be that you received a faulty compressor which is not overly common but does happen from time to time.

Tc for Model Number 795.73165.610

I have a Kenmore Refrigerator that has an LG Compressor, P/N FLB075LB, which has failed and Sears is not willing to help at all, no wonder they're going out of business. I noticed that LG has a class action suit against them for the high failure rate of their compressors. Do you by chance know if they only cover the compressor if its in an LG refrigerator or will they cover it in a Kenmore refrigerator? I'm asking you guys before I purchase this unit, and have it installed. Thank You, TC

1 Answer

TC, Based on the information provided I would refer you to LG customer service for the correct information as to what they will and will not cover. That being said in the past I have found that Kenmore/Sears handles all the warranties on their branded machines no matter who the manufacturer may be.

Mark, the manufacturer has revised the compressor TCA38091801 and this would be why it has the new part number TCA38151706. The revision is likely an efficiency revision that would not affect the compressor operation.

Polly, you would need to contact LG to verify how they handle this process as they handle all warranty issues.

Jeffrey for Model Number Kenmore Fridge model 795.71603.011

I need to replace the compressor and I'm out of the warranty period. Sears Parts lists the assembly as #TCA35271202 and this part is "no longer available" at Sears or across the Web. A search of your site has led me to LG part# AP6974024 as a replacement or substitute for the original compressor. Can you please confirm that I have the right compressor if I order AP6974024? If "yes", Are there other parts that should be ordered so that the Sears service tech will have everything they need when they arrive for a scheduled repair. Thanks very much for your help!

1 Answer

Jeffrey, Based on the information provided the compressor TCA38151706 is correct for your model. This part requires a certified refrigeration technician to do the repairs and this part requires a software update to be done on the refrigerator at the time of the compressor replacement. The following note is included with the compressor: "NOTE: This part also requires software update kit CJT30000002. DO NOT INSTALL WITHOUT UPDATING SOFTWARE." Our software kit part number CJT30000002
