Customer Questions and Answers for Refrigerator Ice Maker Assembly Kit by Lg

Paul, Sounds like a temperature issue. Without the model number, it would be hard to diagnose. We will need your model number to help you find the right parts for your unit. Please post another question with all your info included thank you.

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

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.

Luan, Thanks for the question!!!! Make sure you hold the button for about eight seconds. If the ice maker does not cycle, then replace the ice maker.

Kirk, This would most likely be caused by a water valve that is not fully closing and causing ice build-up.

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.

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.

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

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.

Hello Kent, This can be caused by an insufficient water fill AJU72992603 or inadequate temperature in the icemaker compartment.
