Removed the damaged tube and replaced the it with a new one.

Easy repair. Unplugged refer. Took back cover off with screwdriver. Unscrewed the support for the pump. Unhooked water lines from both ends of bad pump. Pulled electrical line off the old pump. Put the support on the new pump, hooked up lines, and electrical plug and screwed the pump to the frame. Put the coever back on unit. Plugged back into wall. Worked immediately.

slid screw driver under edge of switch, easy.

Uncoupled the old connector, replaced with new connector and attached supply line. Repair easy with right part, prior to ordering the right part I had tried a compression fitting and it still leaked. U-tube and others demonstrating repair assured me I was on the right path.

I called LG and followed the instructions given over the phone. The instructions couldn't have been simpler. Disconnect the appliance for several hours and then connect again. I disconnected the appliance overnight, cleaned out the freezer, and reconnected it. Problem solved. Did not need to call a repairman and did not use the clips.

Remove push plate for water/ice maker switch, remove 2 screws and 2 wires for switch. Replace with new.

removed 1 screw and replaced

The vegetable bins at the bottom of the refigerator weren't sliding smoothly, as the two outlying rollers had snapped off the large plastic frame that houses said bins. Unclipped/unsnapped all the covers and glass shelving and remaining rollers attached to the frame and reinstalled them on the new frame. The only tough part was removing/installing a couple of large transpaent pieces of plastic that sit directly under the glass shelf. I'm not sure what their function is, except perhaps to look nice. But I had to pull the frame out with surprising force to snap the pieces in and out. Had to use a screwdriver for leverage and was afraid I was going to crack the frame. There must be a trick to it, because I'm a strong guy and it was still hard for me to do; there must be an easier way. Nevertheless I got them in ok, and bins pull out easily again. I was impressed when comparing the old frame to the new one, btw, as the new one's roller-attachment point is far sturdier than the old one. Obviously this was a weak point that has been well-addressed.

I removed the old lamp cover and case. Discovered that the last repair person had not re installed it correctly so the case had melted from the bulbs. I Removed the screws that was supposed to hold it up, assembled the case and cover, inserted the screws and anchored them in where they belong. Problem solved!

Simple replacement part.

Very easy just took old out and put in the new ones. Took less then 2 min.

It's a snap in part. 10 seconds to install

With alot of elbow grease and a pair of pliars we managed to get the old connector off wo cuttig the tubing as the tubing was getting to short from being cut once to many times & there was no more play in the length.Original connector was a different color and shapped slightly different than the new one so was a bit concerned that I had ordered the wrong part but it went one very easily & did not leak. We even managed to remove it again just to see if it was possible wo cutting again. it came off with no trouble.I would say the replacement part was a better fit than the original simply because we could remove it easily wo having to cut the tube!

I first took off a plastic trip strip which just popped off with a little pull. Then I pulled the gasket off slowly all around the perimeter of the door and snapped off the guide strip with the help of a screwdriver. I installed the gasket next first the guide strip then followed up with the pushing the gasket into the groove all around the door. Did the same procedure on the other door. The gaskets came very well packed and undamaged. It took approximately 2 weeks because one gasket was on back order. Thank you for your help with these parts. It would have cost me 3 times as much if the repairman performed this repair.

Tape off the light button so door alarm does not go off. Take off the clear light shield and remove the light bulbs. Be careful, bulbs may still be HOT!! With Phillips head screw driver unscrew the light plate assy. Drop it down in a comfortable position. Disconnect the connector, unscrew the thermal sensor and remove light assy. Install new light assy into light plate assy. There is no thermal senor in the new assy. Snap light plate assy back into place and install the two screws previously taken out. Install bulbs and clear cover. Remove tape from light door switches and you are done. Lights should go on and off when door buttons are pushed in and out.
