Customer Questions and Answers for Ice Maker Lever (Shut-Off Arm) by Lg

This ice maker lever is the mechanical arm that controls ice production by interacting with the ice maker's on/off and level-sensing mechanism. Replacing a broken or missing lever restores proper operation and helps prevent overfilling or no-ice conditions.

• Acts as the ice maker's shut-off arm to regulate ice production
• Lowers to allow ice making; raises to stop when the bin is full
• Common symptoms: ice maker won't stop making ice, no ice when arm is stuck up, broken/missing lever, lever won't stay in position
• Helps ensure consistent, reliable ice production control

• Disconnect power and shut off water before service
• Remove the ice bin to access the ice maker; gently release the lever from its pivots/linkage
• Note lever orientation; transfer and reuse any original springs, clips, or fasteners
• Reinstall components, restore power, and verify free up/down movement of the arm
