An LG ice maker shares its basic needs with every other ice maker, cold air, water and a working mechanism, but where it sits, how it is reset and the codes it shows are specific to the brand and model. The Belvidere list starts with companies that name LG, followed by other appliance repair companies that work on ice makers and freezers.
This is an independent directory. We are not affiliated with LG, and the technicians listed are independent repair companies, not the manufacturer.

LG Ice and Freezer Features
What Makes LG Ice Maker Repairs Different
LG's ice makers run at 20 to 120 psi (40 to 120 psi on filtered models); the fill valve relies on pressure to snap shut, so low pressure can let it drip and overfill the tray, while high pressure calls for a regulator. Source: LG USA - LG Refrigerator: Why is the ice tray overfilling with water?

Before You Call: The LG Reset
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.
