Use this guide to test the linear compressor motor and its attached overload device for your LG refrigerator.
This guide will work for most LG refrigerators with linear compressors. This guide is written with an LG model LFX25973 refrigerator. If you have a different model, you may encounter some minor disassembly differences, but the overall repair process will be the same.
The compressor is the heart of your refrigerator, and if it fails or can't start, your refrigerator is useless. Without the compressor, the refrigerant can't circulate and can't function to cool the interior of the fridge.
Symptoms of such failure include no compressor sound from the fridge and increasing temperature inside the fridge. Sometimes, there may be repeated clicking noises coming from the lower part of the fridge.
