EASY PEASEY WATCHED INSTALL VIDEO NO PROBLEMS WORKING GREAT THANK YOU

I could not as the spring was too large and did not fit. Calls to Parts Select were not very useful as I described the problem and was told that that was the correct part, even though I supplied photos.
Rather than research the problem, I was told to call LG. Not exactly the response I expected from an authorized distributor. By the ... Read more way, LG service said to call an authorized distributor, so round and round I go Please help.

I actually watched a YouTube video for LG refrigerators. The hardest part was taking the wire harness out. Mine was really stuck in there. But got it, put the new switch in and viola it worked. Yay!

Followed directions that came with the filter. Did remove the top shelf for easier access. Very simple and quick.

I installed the new 3 wire ice maker very easily, but it was defective. I was told that instructions for the return of the defective part would be sent later due to the virus. I have never received the return instruction.

Re-assemble the new ice maker in reverse order and you are all set. I think part of the issue I was having was due to mineral buildup in the tray as well so it had a hard time cracking and removing the ice. Not sure why it was overfilling, maybe the sensor was broken or had buildup on it as well. This solved all the problems I was seeing and now it makes great ice that doesn't stick together and form a bridge in the bin.

I watched a couple of You Tube videos on how to make the repair, ordered a new spring from Part Select, and installed the new spring when it arrived. Took about 5 minutes for the actual repair.

Check the spring when it arrives. The first one I received was wound the wrong direction. Called customer service and they were supe ... Read more r. Refunded the charge for the first spring, found the correct one for me, and mailed it out.

Swapped old one with new one. New one had extra plug not needed.
