I have removed this unit for repair every few weeks since the ref was new, LG 3 years old, most of the time

the unit makes too much ice, overflows, freezes into big chunks, this throws the timing off on the gears that

are attached to the trip arm.Some times it just wont make ice.

The new repacement unit has a different shaped trip arm. I installed it a month ago and it has worked perfect.

I won't hold my breath though.

I installed this unit about 36 hours ago, so things could still swirl down the tubes, but there is a lot of reason for optimism.

We've had the Kenmore Elite version of the LG refrigerator for almost six years now.Within the past two, the ice maker began giving us problems.The major problem was it would often not stop making ice when the bin was full.The result was the ice would pile up on top of the ice maker, eventually physically stopping it from dumping the cubes. Eventually, the water outlet would also freeze, which meant getting rid of some ice and getting out the wife's hair dryer.The problem was the arm that is supposed to signal the bin is full. This unit has a different design for that arm that solves the problem.

The original unit stored the arm in the up position and would attempt to drop it to detect when the ice bin is full.Ours would get trapped under the newly dumped ice, which for whatever reason did not put the brakes on the ice making process.The new design starts with the arm in the down position, tucked under the ice maker.It attempts to raise the arm when it is ready to dump and refill.If it can not, the process stops until the ice level gets low enough to allow the arm to swing up.The arm returns to the down position before the cubes get dumped, so there is no chance the arm can get trapped in the up position.Problem solved!

The housing around the water outlet also has changed.This is smaller and looks better protected.

Installation is easy: two mounting screws, a plug for the wires and a grounding wire that gets screwed into the ice maker.

Ice makers have always been problematic. I expect 5-7 years before I have to replace them. At least from the design change, I don't think I'll be replacing this one for the same reason as its predecessor.

The vendor, Quickshipparts, got the unit to us in three days, which is very quick.

As I understand it from reading on the internet about icemakers in modern refrigerators, the icemakers only last about 5-6 years.I had a problem with my LG French door refrig after about a year.At that time, LG replaced at no charge.About 5 years later, the icemaker stopped working again.I tried pressing and holding the ice sizing button, but that didn't help.I also took the icemaker apart and found ice in the gearing but that didn't fix the problem.So, replacing the icemaker was the next step.

Replacing the icemaker is relatively easy....2 mounting screws that are easily accessible, 1 electrical connection, and a screw for the ground wire.Connecting the electrical connection and ground wire screw to the new icemaker is a little awkward, but doable.After installation, I had to press and hold the ice sizing button to get the new icemaker started.

I'm thinking of getting a second icemaker for when this one goes bad in about 5 years.

After getting ridiculously high estimates to repair the ice maker in our LG refrigerator, which worked poorly almost from the beginning, I took a chance and searched the part number here on Amazon. I figured there was no harm in taking the old one apart as it had completely failed anyway. I'm so thrilled I found this, and even better, was thrilled to learn the design had been improved to correct the problems that I ran into with the old one. I easily installed the new unit myself and it has worked as well as I could have hoped. Definitely recommend this purchase if needed.
