This OEM replacement part is a cover assembly for refrigerators. The cover assembly houses the selection buttons of the refrigerator as well as the water dispenser. If the cover assembly is cracked, inoperable, or otherwise damaged, it will need to be replaced. Luckily, replacing this part is a rather simple process. To start, make sure the refrigerator is unplugged. Once unplugged, proceed to open the freezer door to remove the side panel of the freezer door. Remove the screws that attach the panel. Once they are removed, locate the mounting tabs that hold the display cover in place. Release the locking tabs and push the display cover out away from the fridge to release it. Once removed, snap the new display cover back in place and make sure that it is securely attached to the refrigerator. Reinstall the inner panel, and restore power to the appliance.This genuine replacement part is sourced directly from the manufacturer and is compatible with LG brand refrigerators.
