I actually took a picture of the correct spring installation at a big box store that carried LG. I had called LG, but they said they didn't have any installation brochures, and to call a registered LG repairman. That was out of the question, since the repairman would charge $100 just to show up.
I looked at the picture I took. Used needle nose pliers and inserted one end. Unless the lady of the house is very strong, this should be handled by a man, because of the rigid spring. Once the spring was inserted into one side of the flap, I used the pliers to get the other end into the proper slot. Very easy, but the spring is very strong !!

Spring on door Mullion broke
Watched a YouTube video on how to replace the door flipper (mullion). Very easy to unscrew the plate and disconnect the electrical circuit. Then gently slide up the flipper and replace with a new one.

Broken left sided attachment clasp/arm
The replacement basket for the left swing door went extremely smooth. The part was an exact fit and just required a little pressure while attaching the new replacement part.
highly recommend part select in doing a replacement for this part.
The schematic for the refrigerator is blurry and difficult to see on-line, so one a representative from parts select assisted me in finding the correct part.
two thumbs up!

Ice Maker Can’t Rotate/Discharge Ice
First, remove power to the refrigerator.
To replace the ice maker you first have to remove the back mounting assembly, which ice maker is attached to.
Only three Phillips head screws need to be removed: 2 on the bottom and 1 on the back of the ice maker mounting assembly. Do not remove the two diagonal Phillips head screws holding the dispenser motor on the reverse side of the mounting assembly.
As you pull out the mounting assembly to the front you will see a connector on the top inside, which must be unplugged. A narrow standard screw driver will help the connector lock to release; slide the screwdriver tip under the connector lock clip and it will allow the connector to be unplugged.
Once the ice maker mounting assembly is removed and placed on a flat surface it will be self evident as to how to remove and replace the ice maker. The 1” tape might be needed during the cable re-routing process. However you can reuse the original tape required to be removed during the ice maker remove and replace process, if possible.
Reinstall the ice maker mounting assembly in the reverse order it was removed.
Apply power to the refrigerator.
Cycle the ice maker to Off and then back to On. It may take an hour or two before the ice maker produces ice because the temperature inside the ice maker must reach “0” degrees Fahrenheit before it will begin making ice.
Pull the ice maker
