Use this guide to replace the ice and water dispenser on your LG refrigerator.
This guide will work for most LG refrigerators. 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 ice and water dispenser dispenses ice and water through the left refrigerator door. It has paddles that operate switches located in the dispenser, which control the output of ice and water from the dispenser.
The ice and water dispenser has a number of components that may need replacing, including the display PC board, the ice and water dispensing switches, and sub-control PC board.
If the ice and water dispenser fails, you will notice erratic operation of the ice and water dispensing functions. They may also completely cease operation.
