Jason C August 11, 2025 for Model Number 795.73053.4110 My water dispenser suddenly started dispensing very slowly. I tried replacing the water inlet valve in the door, then the water inlet valve in the back, and then the filter head. None of these worked. I finally realized that when I'm depressing the button for water, water is also going to the ice maker (which is why it seems only half the water is being dispensed). I gave up and hired a pro to come look. After looking over everything I already replaced, he tried switching the tube from the water reservoir in the door with the white valve tube. Water works perfectly again, but I haven't been home again today to see if ice is working. Assuming it isn't (or is, even), what do you think the issue is? Thanks!
1 Answer Hello Jason, and thank you for your question. It is possible that the original valve failed and, when replaced, the tubes may have been accidentally switched. We recommend allowing the ice maker about 24 hours to see if it produces ice as expected, since consistent ice production can be a good indicator of whether there’s another underlying issue.

Dave December 05, 2024 for Model Number LG LMWS27626S/00 My water dispenser is very slow, but the ice maker seems to be working fine. I suspect the secondary water mixer valve, but I don't know where it's located. My water dispenser is not in the door, but inside, on the left side. The filter access is from inside. I would rather avoid pulling out the fridge if I the access for the valve from inside. Where is the access point for this valve on my refrigerator?
1 Answer Dave, based on the model number, the water dispenser valve should be located in the water tank assembly AJL72911510 for testing. Read More...
Lgwaterleakuser June 18, 2024 for Model Number LMXS27626S/00 I suspect I have a control board issue or a secondary water inlet issue. I'm able to dispense water without issue and see that water goes out of the white port on the inlet. Now when I hold the test mode on the ice maker, I can see the tray get reset, but then I see that water goes out both the white port and the orange port on the inlet. Is there a good way to diagnose this further so that I can buy the correct part?
1 Answer Hello lgwaterleakuser, thank you for contacting APP, This issue would be related to either the Water Valve MJX41869202 or the Dispenser Power Control Board EBR60070733 in the door. I would test this by disconnecting the wires to the solenoid on the White port and running the Icemaker, if you are still getting water through both valves when the Icemaker fills replace the Water Valve, if only getting water through one valve when the Icemaker fills replace the Dispenser Power Control Board.

Teddy July 11, 2023 for Model Number LFX29945ST/00 Which water valve is the most likely cause of slow water dispensing. The ice maker seams to work fine and the filter has been changed also installed dummy filter for toubleshooting with no change. Why does it have water inlet valves in the back and in the door?
1 Answer Teddy, Based on the information provided the most likely culprit would be the valve in the door. Read More...
David April 29, 2023 for Model Number LG LFXS28968S Water on the door recently started dispensing too quickly. Comes out so fast that you get big bubbles in the glass and can't fill it all the way. Checked the ohms on the rear inlet valve and got 1700+. Other answers say it should be 500-1500 so I guess I need to swap the valve??
Jean-Guy May 19, 2022 for Model Number LFX25778SW My ice machine receives only a few drops of water. I hear the water inlet valve ( MJX41869202) a rumbling noise. I would like where is my water inlet valve located in my LG 25778SW? Thank you
1 Answer Jean-Guy, the water inlet assembly 5221JB2010G that diverts water to the ice maker is located in the left door behind the access panel behind the bottom door bin. The main inlet valve AJU72992601 that sends water to the inlet assembly is located in the back of the appliance in the compressor section. Read More...
Pat S. March 05, 2022 for Model Number LFX25971ST Water squirting out of the back of the refrigerator at the top where the water line enters. Tightened fitting, no help, still leaks. Replaced fitting where water enters. Still leaks. Replaced filter, still leaks. Trimmed vinyl hose where it enters fitting about 1/2", but still leaks. Any ideas? Maybe the water valve? Seems like I am getting some water inside the freezer on the bottom of the freezer but that may have been when I unhooked the vinyl supply line in the back so it drained out the front water dispenser? Thanks
1 Answer Hello Pat, The fitting you have described is not designed to hold water pressure but is designed to redirect the flow of water. When water leaks at this fitting it indicates that the fill tube has frozen up[ and needs to be thawed out from the inside with a hairdryer set to a medium setting. This is caused by a bad water inlet valve MJX41178908. If you have replaced this water inlet valve, the cause has been corrected but the fill tube into the icemaker still needs to be thawed out to complete the repair. Read More...
Derek January 24, 2022 for Model Number lmxs28626s LG French door refrigerator model# : lmxs28626s Ice maker will not fill with water. Water dispenser works ok. Have replaced the water filter, water valve assemble and water inlet valve. Problem not solved. Is there another valve behind the icemaker in the door? When the icemaker manually cycles I hear something like a valve energizing but no water comes to the icemaker. Help?
1 Answer Derek, it would be recommended that the fill tube above the ice maker be inspected for an ice blockage. If there is ice clogging it, the ice would need to be cleared and the valve MJX41869202 in the bottom of the refrigerator door (located behind a cover panel just behind the lower bin of the left door) would need to be replaced.

Jim Ruhford December 21, 2021 for Model Number LMX28988ST 00 Water flow from the dispenser has just started getting slow. Changed filter; did not help. Checked water line at house and it is fully open.
1 Answer Jim, This issue would most likely be caused by a faulty water filter housing that is not allowing water to pass through properly. Would also check to see if the water line is kinked but if not change the filter head. Read More...
