The Lever Dispenser is an OEM part for LG refrigerators. It is the control mechanism responsible for dispensing crushed ice and water through the refrigerator door without opening it. The lever and dispensing components are designed to withstand frequent use while retaining smooth, reliable operation. 

Causes of a bad lever dispenser can include worn parts inhibiting proper dispensing movement, cracks or damage reducing structural integrity, or mineral buildup affecting functionality over time.

Symptoms of a bad lever dispenser include:

• Difficulty or inability to dispense ice and water
• Leaks or drips around the dispenser area 
• Loose, rattling, or unresponsive lever action  
• The dispenser not activating or emptying the reservoir

This OEM LG part is also compatible with dispenser models featured on Kenmore side-by-side refrigerators.

The Link is an OEM part for LG refrigerators. It serves as an integral connector between the refrigerator door and cabinet, facilitating smooth opening and closing of the door. With durable construction and precise engineering, the link is designed to withstand the rigorous motion of hundreds of door openings without compromising functionality. 

Symptoms of a bad link include:

• Doors that do not close or seal properly 
• Excessive noise or vibration from the door area
• Damage, bending, or breakage of the connecting pieces
• Misalignment impairing proper door operation

Causes can stem from normal wear and tear over many years of use. Replacing a faulty link restores the refrigerator door's designed motion for convenient access to the interior.

This OEM LG part fits seamlessly while extending the product's useful life. This part is also compatible with Kenmore models featuring LG's refrigerator link assembly design.
