How LG Ice Makers and Freezers Work
Ice that builds up at the bottom of the freezer usually means a blocked freezer drain, so defrost water refreezes instead of reaching the drain tray. Source: LG USA - LG Refrigerator: Troubleshooting Ice Buildup in an LG Refrigerator
Common LG Ice Maker and Freezer Problems
- Ice maker leaking / tray overfilling. Overfilling is usually a water pressure problem, so check pressure at an outside faucet and adjust the supply valve or add a regulator before running the ice maker test. Source: LG USA - LG Refrigerator: Why is the ice tray overfilling with water?
- Craft Ice maker leaking. Partially close the supply valve, lower the freezer to 0°F or colder and check that the door gasket seals, since high pressure or warm air can cause it. Source: LG USA - LG Refrigerator: Why is the ice tray overfilling with water?
The LG Ice Maker Test
On ice makers with a tray, press and hold the test button under the tray for about three seconds (models without a tray use a paper clip through the access hole) until the tray or arms turn, with a towel underneath; a new install allows only one test in the first two hours.
