Wayne March 04, 2019 for Model Number LRFD25850ST Freezer temperature display keeps changing and beeping every time it changes. Do not think the actual temperature changes only the display.
1 Answer Wayne, The dispenser control board would be the most likely cause for this issue and is part number 6871JB1281C Read More...
Dave L June 18, 2017 for Model Number LG LFC25760ST Refridgerator Last pm I heard the fan in the freezer making noise and saw Ice on the back wall of the freezer. I removed all the frozen food took the bin and tray out. I then used a hair dryer on low to defrost it. I think I spent about 15 minutes. The fan made no noise after that and is running. The problem is now the fan shuts off and I get a beeping warning as though one of the refridg doors or freezer door is open but they aren't. All the switches on the doors are fine and all the lights are off when they are closed. If I open the freezer door and manually press the light switch up the fan will come on when the freezer light goes off as normal.. I actually taped the switch closed and thought it might be the switch. After several minutes the fan turned off and the beeping returned. could it be the defrost sensor? I am not getting any error codes. The compressor and cooling fan run normally and when the freezer fan is running the unit is cold. Thanks!
2 Answers Dave, Based on the description of the problem this would likely be an issue with the defrost sensor possibly being faulty. Also check for any type of air leaks around the door which could also cause this type of issue. Read More...

2 Answers Hello Dave, Since the defrost sensor kit 6615JB2005H is a relatively low cost part it would not hurt to change it to see if this helps the situation. If this does not correct the issue, there is a real possibility that the issue is caused by the main control board 6871JB1423N. Read More...

Rob January 24, 2017 for Model Number 795.797539.05 The freezer part of the refrigerator/freezer was unintentionally left ajar overnight which caused the unit to extremely ice up. The front ice maker was presenting an error code and would work for a few minutes if power cycled. Unplugged unit for 2 days for a good defrost and then everything seemed to be fine but freezer is icing up and fan is making noises. Door seals seem to be fine.
1 Answer Hello Rob, You will need to remove the rear freezer wall to inspect the evaporator and any ice that has accumulated. The unit is insulated well enough that the unit will need to be opened and defrosted manually to ensure no ice can contact the fan assembly. The defrost circuit is only designed to remove frost accumulations from a normal cycle and cannot handle unusual ice accumulations such as this. Once all ice is removed and the unit is put back into operation, it should run for 24 hours and the defrost circuit should be checked for any possible problems. Read More...
Joe January 23, 2017 for Model Number LFX25978ST My LG LFX25978ST freezer doesn't get cold enough to keep most foods frozen, and the ice maker takes much longer to freeze ice. It will be cold, but not cold enough to keep foods frozen. Could the defrost sensor be an issue or does it sounds like something else?
1 Answer Joe, You will want to pull the rear cover in the freezer compartment and check the frost pattern on the evaporator coils. If there is very little frost or just a couple rows or no frost then this would be a sealed system issue and would need to be have a servicer to repair. Read More...
Anthony D December 31, 2016 for Model Number LMX25981ST Refrigator gets to warm in fridge and freezer then after a few hours all temp. return to normal.freezer will get up to 30 degrees then after a few hours cool to proper freezer temp same in refridge refrigge will get up to 50degrees then after a few hours return to 36 degrees ,had relay and overload starter checked and they are good when refrigator cools down will stay cold most of day then go into warm cycle
1 Answer Anthony, The defrost sensor would most likely be the cause of the unit sticking in defrost for long periods of time. If this sensor checks ok then the issue will be a faulty control board. Read More...
Bob L. August 07, 2016 for Model Number LFX25950SW Fresh food freezes, temperature control in refrigerator is inaccurate. The temperature in the freezer is accurate. The compressor and fan is operating properly. We are thinking the defrost sensor is defective. Thank you
1 Answer Hello Bob, If the defrost sensor were the issue, the fresh food compartment would be warming up instead of running too cold. This is most likely a duct assembly issue allowing too much cold to be shared from the freezer compartment. I'm sorry but this part 5209JJ1009D has been discontinued by the manufacturer and no satisfactory substitutions have been provided. Read More...
Mike July 25, 2016 for Model Number lcf2577ost My LF refrigerator has neither the freezer or refrigerator cooling. No air is being blown into either compartment. The compressor sounds as if it is running. When I put it in test mode 1, the compressor is on and then air is blowing in the freezer and maybe a little is getting into the refrigerator. Test mode 2 is the same situation, but it won't enter test mode 3 (perhaps unit is too warm for that). I have tested the compressor pins for resistance and they are ok. I have tried a new starter relay but since the compressor seemed to come on with the old one, that hasn't made any difference. I say a video that suggested that the pcb panel was defective in a refrigerator when the blowers were only working in test mode, so my last attempt was to replace the pcb panel. The new panel allows the lights etc to work but after kicking the compressor on, it quits in 5-10 secs and I can never even get to the test mode because the refrigerator shuts down and I can only repeat that short cycle. My question is if I had a fault defrost sensor that failed in the on mode, would that be the reason the new panel can't keep the compressor running. The panel seems to be killing the refrigerator operation perhaps because there is a short that is drawing to many amps. Could that have burnt out the old panel but allowed it to function to get to the test modes and the new panel is working appropriately and stopping operation due to short. Very puzzling circumstance. Appreciate any advice before I get a repair person in. Thanks
1 Answer Mike, If you replaced the main control board on the unit, which is located in the back of the unit and it the compressor is not staying running now then it sounds like you may have received a faulty control board. If the fans are now running and the compressor only kicks on for 5 to 10 seconds then try putting the other overload relay back on and see if it does the same thing or changes. If it does not change would recommend another control board. If this does not correct then it sounds like it could be a compressor issue but would suspect defective board being the cause.

Steven D October 29, 2014 for Model Number LMX25981ST Error code DH. Replaced the defrost censor with model suggested by this sight. Did a check on the heater coil and it is good. Did the test on the main board and after that the fridge worked for 3 weeks the then back to the same error code. What's going on?
1 Answer Steven, The Er DH error code is a poor defrost error. It is indicating that Even though it is passed 1 hour since then defrosting, if the defrosting sensor is not over 46 degrees it will cause the error. The things that can cause this would be a faulty temperature fuse, heater failure, drain that is clogged or a poor relay for the heater. With the heater already being tested and it checked good for continuity and the sensor being new, this issue would most likely be caused by a faulty control board. Read More...
