How LG Ice Makers and Freezers Work
Depending on the model, the ice maker is switched by a power switch on its left side or by an Ice On/Off control on the panel, which may need the control lock released first. Source: LG USA - LG Refrigerator: Why is my refrigerator not making ice?
Some models flag a water flow sensor fault as gF, which LG says requires service. Source: LG USA - LG Refrigerator: Why is the ice tray overfilling with water?
What LG Says to Check First
- Ice maker not making ice. Lower the freezer setting, confirm the ice maker is switched on and the panel is unlocked, then allow 24 hours. Source: LG USA - If Your LG Refrigerator Is Not Making Ice or Not Making Enough
