The Lever Cover is an OEM part for LG refrigerators. This cover fits neatly over the freezer door lock mechanism, protecting its internal lever and hardware.
Causes of a bad lever cover can include damage from regular opening and closing of the freezer door over time. Accidental impacts or heavy impacts from moving the refrigerator could also crack or weaken the plastic material.
Symptoms of a bad lever cover include:
- Exposure of the lock mechanism that allows dust and debris to enter
- Improper shielding of lock parts leading to potential jamming issues
- Cracking or breakage of the plastic allowing outside contaminants inside
This OEM LG part is also compatible with some Kenmore models.
