David March 12, 2023 for Model Number LFXS30726S How do I replace the water valve in my ice maker? I am having ice build up at the bottom and hav replace the seal. Water seems to be leaking down the right side of the ice container
1 Answer David, This unit has two water valves, the first thing to do is determine if the valves are leaking through or if the ice maker is overfilling. AP5331238] 0r AJU74532703 Read More...
Keith March 07, 2023 for Model Number AEQ7313004 I have replaced the ice cube maker and the water valve. When I go to get water, it leaks badly. What else can it be?
1 Answer Keith, if the model number of your appliance could be provided in a new question, this will allow the most accurate information to be presented. Generally speaking, if the water is leaking from the water dispenser after dispensing water, the filter could possibly be restricting flow and cause the valve to not shut properly. The tubing may also need to be inspected for any indications of a pinhole that could be allowing air to break the vacuum in the tubing. Read More...

Bad B April 29, 2022 for Model Number LFXS30766S Our compressor went out while we were out of town. The house stunk. Probably bad for over 2 weeks. Ideas for removing the stink. Have wiped down everything with baking soda and water and the 1 to 1 white vinegar. It all helped but the refrig still smells and the ice smells too!.
1 Answer Hello Bad B, The only way to remove the odor would be to lay a sheet of newspaper out on the shelves and use charcoal without starting fluid in it to absorb the odor. After 24 hours, remove the charcoal and replace it with new. Do this repeatedly until the odor is gone. You can also try wiping the interior down with white vinegar afterward. As a note, the charcoal can still be used to cook with since the odor absorbed will be burned off by the time the charcoal goes white and is ready for cooking. Read More...
Laurent April 05, 2022 for Model Number LGR7646EQ3 The ice maker stop to make ice cube before replacing the water filter. The AEQ73130004 unit seems to work, the arms rotate but no water reach the ice maker. The water pressure is good enough. I replace the unit but no result. I also replace the valve , no change. I really don't understand what happen... thank you for your help
1 Answer Laurent, it would be recommended that the ice maker fill tube is inspected for any ice blockage that could have potentially formed. If it is blocked, the tube would need to be cleared. As the valve has already been replaced, there would not be a need to replace it again. Read More...
Curtis November 14, 2021 for Model Number LFXS29626S/01 I purchased theis part from you. How do I find a manual how to replace it?
1 Answer Curtis, the ice maker housing assembly would need to be removed to change out the ice maker AEQ73130004. The following link can be used as a reference for removing the full assembly. https://www.appliancepartspros.com/lg-motor-ac-indoor-eau60784231-ap6028822.html#autoplay Read More...
Kent July 26, 2021 for Model Number LFXC24796D/00 Ice maker will only cycle when I hit the reset button. Otherwise I have no ice.
1 Answer Kent, it would be recommended that the freezer temperature is verified using a thermometer. If the freezer temperature is not reaching 0°F, it can cause the ice maker to not reach less than 1°F and prevent it from harvesting ice. If the temperature is good and reaching the ice maker properly, the failure would most likely be the ice maker AEQ73130004 itself. Read More...
1 Answer Hello Kent, This can be caused by an insufficient water fill AJU72992603 or inadequate temperature in the icemaker compartment. Read More...
Pari February 04, 2021 for Model Number LPXS30866D/00 The Ice maker is producing ice, but ice button it doesn’t work. If I push the ice cubes button it makes a small noise and stopped in 2 seconds
1 Answer Pari, with access to the auger motor EAU60784231, the white wire and the blue wire would need to be tested for 120VAC when the door switch is taped closed and the ice dispenser is pressed using the cubed selection. If there is 120VAC and the auger does not rotate, it has failed and would need to be replaced. If there is not voltage, the failure would be in the sub PCB board EBR64730408. Read More...
