We had the same problem.. same noise and ordered the part.. unfortunately, it did not fix the problem.. so I’m totally lost now

Fricking junk LG

Thanks for saving me tons of money on my car insura.... I mean my repair bill.

Thanks for the video. What if the ice dispenser works fine but makes a loud popping noise immediately after dispensing ice and also randomly makes the popping noise? TIA

My 1/2 HP Genie made the same noise. Looking at capacitor I don't seen anything obviously wrong. When I disconnect the screw drive, the motor DOES run. The collar between the motor and screw drive looks fine but replaced that anyway. Same hum when connected. Can a bad capacitor cause motor to not work under load? If not capacitor I'm wondering if there iis binding of the screw drive (dirt in grease or other)

Thanks! The reset button is all we needed!

Very informative! Our’s appears to have a broken piece of white plastic in the square plastic hole in the back where the metal lever fits into. We are getting crushed ice only. Do you have any suggestions for that?

This was thorough and had all the info I needed. Thanks for telling me the filter number. Much better than other podcasts.

Thank you so much! This worked and I avoided a service call fee and potentially an overpriced repair and finding other things that “should be replaced”.

I have a newer LG fridge and opened the gear box and everything looked fine. I still took the gears out and put them back but it’s still doing the same thing. It will go up for a half a second and then down for a half second and then stop. It really seemed like something was binding up. Damn thing is two years old, I guess I’m ordering a new ice maker. They’re only $100 but I was hoping this was the issue.

Those ice makers are just trash, had to replace one. I guess it'll last a couple of years.

Hi Brad - I'm Nancy and I have the same unit. For some reason when the ice maker is dumping the ice, it's like it gets off the track and makes a loud clicking sound because it's off track. I've taken the unit off, and think the problem might be where the motor is. I haven't opened up the motor part, but is that a spring that maybe has come loose that maybe I have to reconnect inside that housing?

Thank you SIR!

lol, you didn't fix anything. You took it apart and put it back together. Unless I missed something, it looks like all your icemaker needed was a defrost.

Thank you! They wanted me to replace my entire unit! I appreciate you!

Maybe just a hair dryer. Warm it all up ?????????

Thank you! Didn't know that there was a reset button.

If it was just froze up. I would have just removed ice make and left it upside down in the sink overnight to thaw and drain.

Mine does not have a reset button. 2017 model. Any suggestions?

Very helpful. Thanks.

Dang! I'm getting sea sick.

awful idea when an iron exists

tried this doesn’t work well wouldn’t recommend to others

Invest in a tripod.

those transitions are fire 🔥 we not gonna talk about those?

Watched both videos because mine is making a loud clicking noise when the ice tray is turning over and trying to dump the ice. I have disassembled & reassembled the ice maker and checked the gears. Removed and put back in to make sure they weren't misaligned. It worked for the next 24 hours BUT, the ice is still not dumping out from the tray. And when it does, it's dumping chunks and shards of ice like sheets of glass, if you will. After 24 hours, the clicking has returned. I also just tried to hit the reset button and I saw the ice tray flip over and try to dump ice that has still been stuck in it for days (after it started clicking I turned off the ice maker cause the noise made me & my dog crazy). Hoping the reset will do the trick but have to wait and see. If it does not, what is my next option, in your opinion? And I swear I saw you had posted the part needed to replace the whole ice maker mechanism but now I can't find the link. Maybe I saw it on another video. Will keep looking for that.

Thanks for the first and this second video! Mine works great when the reset button is pushed, so I think my gears are all good. But it wont dump or start or try to dump unless I press the reset button, after a bunch of tries and several days now. Any ideas for how to fix that ?

I have this same ice maker in my LG french door fridge. It makes one batch of ice, but it won't even try to harvest it unless i push the reset button. Then it harvests that one batch, and fills up to make the next batch, but will never harvest even if I leave it alone for 2 days. It's cold enough and plenty of water supply. Any advice for this ?? (I've been searching the internet and YT for hours and not found this particular issue). Thanks

I have an LG fridge and noticed this knocking sound in the freezer ice maker. It makes ice just fine but, I can't figure out why its making that sound. Does anyone know what might be going on? I just have it turned off since, it can be really annoying and, sometimes it wont stop.

Did you have to discharge the capacitor since they can hold a charge?

I didn't know there was a reset button, that fixed ours, lol.

What A Job Why Not Just Leave It Overnight and Wait for It To MELT Instead Then POUR IT OUT That Would Be So Much Easier.

Easy just buy scissors

My ice maker is working but not making ice is my problem. I turned off the fridge for over 8 hours two times and it still shows 1F E but I can’t figure out why because it’s not even making ice

Just iron it my friends

Dry it and see if it stays straight.

It won’t stay and you just created mold in your rug

Sir did you know just water would do the same thing

I have the same fridge, purchased 2 years ago. It makes ice but will not dump. I have to dump manually. Could this be a sensor that's dirty or blocked?

What do you use to lift the front of the vehicle up to access the oil pan?

Brad! Hero! I did this, and it fixed my garage door! Thanks, man!

Thanks so much. Easy fix. $15 on Amazon took 5 minutes to replace! 👌🏻

Thanks....the replacement capacitor fixed the problem. Saved me hundred of $$$.

Nice

Hello mine dumps when i press the reset button but wont dump when the ice is ready.....any idea whats going on?

Thanks for the advice man

What was the actual issue with your ice maker?

Thanks , hopefully this worked . Had a broken gear. Moved it 90 degrees. Now waiting to see if it’s fixed 😂

Hi!! Just recently got a used LG fridge from a family member, he said the ice maker doesn't work. So we played around with it today- figured out it DOES actually work, but the twist feature to release the ice gets stuck and repeatedly tries to fully twist over and over again. I'm not sure if that makes sense, but it's basically a consitent glitch that makes this loud flicking sound. It seems like the ice tray is getting stuck on something but nothing is visibly wrong. If i press down on the right side of the tray while it's trying to twist, it thinks it's working and proceeds to go through the motions of dumping and returning to its original position. Then the water fills. The problem is if I don't give it that extra pressure, it will stay in that dumping position and not go through with returning to its place. Any suggestions???
