Interior Light Would Not Turn Off

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.

Tray Cover was broken where it attaches to the refrig. This is the Third one in 6 years

The plastic is real weak and the articulation point is not manufactured strong. You have to put one end in a female receiver and flex the tray cover with your fingers crossed hoping it won't snap, while sliding the other side into a similar female receiver on the other side. The Crisper drawer front has not come in yet. Disappointed that you have to buy the entire drawer with a front instead of the front. This is the 2nd one I have replaced. The difference in the Drawer Front...$10.00 and then entire Front and Drawer, $45 plus...

The gasket on our bottom drawer freezer was torn

Simply used a flat head screwdriver to get the first few inches of the gasket out of its track and after that just pulled it by hand. New gasket slipped over the door, lined up the corner and pressed into in the track. Checked to see that it was snug all over and we were done. 5 minutes at the very most. Never would have noticed this. Took all the bins out of the freezer to give it a good cleaning and noticed the torn piece hanging. Our refrigerator runs much less often. Expect to see a difference in our electric bill!

Crisper Drawer broke on right hinge

Replacement part from PartSelect was OEM, identical to original part. Installation was very quick. Inserted hinge on left side and then depressed the right side to slip it into place. Presto, it was done. Most impressed with PartSelect on the OEM replacement part and very prompt delivery.

Lamp cover and case had melted

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!

Broken Crisper Drawer Door Holder Clip (Small Plastic Hinge On Door Required New Door To Fix)

I actually glued the item the first time repair was needed - lasted over one year. After it broke again; ordered the part from lg on line; and three days later the part arrived and repair complete. Also, I bought an extra door should the other crisper door fail. These doors and other small white plastic parts are seemingly prone to breakage. I am not rough on my appliances, yet I have had one or two other failues of interior parts. Very happy with lg, nevertheless.

the lights inside the frig weren't shutting off

the lights melted the lamp case and cover. I determined it was the switch ,but there was 2 of them . I replaced both . I used a screw driver to pry the covers off the switches which are on the top of the unit .Then I press the tabs on the switch and pulled it out. Slip the wire connect off. slip the wire connect on new switch press it in till the tabs snap in ,put covers back on. the lamp base and cover had two screws holding them, pull the screws slip the old melted base and cover. snap the new base and cover in and put the screws in done!
