LRFD21855ST (ASTCLGA) LG Refrigerator - Instructions

At first, ordered only a latch only to discover the mounting strip had instead failed. Ordering parts wasn't difficult although the parts catalog graphic leaves a lot to desire. Once I figured out how to remove the strip (had to remove the seal first and no instructions existed), it was easy to snap out the old and snap in the new part. This sure beat the cost of paying a repairman. However I fear than most homeowners that aren't mechanically inclined wouldnt have been successful because of no instructions and the parts catalog that had poor detail and a very small size.

I slid the new rails into the Cover for the vegetable bins, and installed inside the refrigerator. No tools needed for this part.

Real Easy

The most time-consuming part is unloading the fridge so you can make the repair, and putting it all back in! Plus you clean everything (glass cover, etc) while it's out. The repair itself probably only took 25 minutes at most. You have to unscrew 4 screws to detach the center metal rails, then snap out the rails. Snapping them into the new cover must be done carefully so as not to break off the tabs on the plastic part you're replacing. It requires a little hand strength (I have arthritis in my hands, so my husband did this part). Then put everything back together and restock the fridge.

observe and fit into original fittings on refrigerator

No installation instructions. I just took everything out of the shelf holding the drawers and figured it out myself. Unfortunately today's products are made with cheap brittle plastic. This is the second time I have ordered parts for this refrigerator from you and I am glad you are so efficient and shipped orders quickly.
