The Evaporator Assembly is an OEM replacement part for  LG refrigerators. As the main component of the refrigerator's cooling system, the evaporator assembly functions to absorb heat from the refrigerator interior and transfer it to the outside unit. It works along with the condenser coil and refrigerant to lower temperatures and maintain a cold environment inside the fridge.

Causes of a bad evaporator assembly can include leakage or blocked circulation in the refrigerant lines which prevents proper heat transfer, cracks or other damage to the coil reducing its ability to absorb heat efficiently, or wear of internal gaskets and seals over time.  

Symptoms of a bad evaporator assembly include: 

• Ineffective or inconsistent cooling even on coldest settings   
• Ice buildup inside the refrigerator
• Strange odors emitting from the rear of the unit
• Unusual noises when the compressor or fans activate

This OEM LG part is also compatible with select Sears/Kenmore brand models.
