Effortlessly reset and fix your LG freezer's ice maker with this simple guide

[@usmchardcore0621]

There's no way i would have thought that pin hole was a functional reset button, i was searching for so long, thank you!

[@dumbolddad]

Thanks for watching.

[@Corey0402]

I’ve got the same LG ice maker and it is working intermittently. I watched your video and followed your steps. That clear casing where the water comes out was completely frosted over to where you couldn’t see through it. I took a blow dryer and thawed it all out. Fingers crossed I don’t have anymore stoppages in ice production.

[@JeromePierce-f9w]

I just solved this same problem thanks to your video! I was just about to give up and schedule repair service, so thanks for saving me some $$!

[@dumbolddad]

Glad it helped

[@amaginni1]

Thank you for this video, I followed these steps a few times and it worked but only seemed to 'last' for a couple of weeks. Last time I tried it, I also took a blow dryer to the water dispenser valve to really thaw it all out (until the thawed water dripped until all out) and it has seemed to be a longer fix so try that along with all the steps in this very helpful video!

[@JeffParsons-e6t]

Thank you! Would it kill them to label the reset button? :)

[@JimmyReed-x4s]

Thank you for this! This saved me from calling a repair person!!

[@MsBC-oq3xb]

Thank you very much! I followed your directions and it is working better than when LG had me on the phone for an hour…SMH

[@dumbolddad]

Great to hear!

[@DaThriftyDiva1]

This was so helpful! Thank you. I had no idea where to beg in😂😂😂😂

[@DCMAN44]

Thank you so much never had an answer to the problem until now. I have a different model but the build up was still the same. Thank you for the video.

[@dumbolddad]

You're welcome!

My ice maker quit making ice 2day (4th of July 2023). I found this video, did everything he did, and now the water is running again in the ice maker. Now to wait and see if I finally have ice again.

[@juangiraldo5203]

I liked the video, it was very good, I have the same refrigerator and it happens to me that I don't get ice, the lever doesn't lift, it stays down, do I have to buy the new ice machine or can it be fixed? I await your response, thank you

[@FBiTOPDOG]

[@dianatyropanis5740]

2:54 so we have this problem and did exactly what you did and it filled once with water and then stopped again. So it's frustrating and we think maybe it's freezing up somewhere else in the waterline

[@mrssweetiecooper4041]

Do you have a video of how to fix the feeler arm or put one on it

[@dumbolddad]

Sorry, I don't.

[@juangiraldo5203]

In mine, that arm or lever stays still and doesn't lift, could it be that there is a fix or it's time to change the ice equipment

[@fixingwhatihave2906]

Worked!!! Thanks

[@dumbolddad]

Thanks for watching.

[@DJMikeSwing]

Thank You!!!

[@lym3204]

Did that nozzle freeze up again?

[@joeg816]

I have a similar problem. How exactly did you clean up the crud? Any tips on what you can use to stick in the hose to try to clear up whatever might be in there?

[@dumbolddad]

I just used some household cleaner.

[@Abm9243]

I found your video yesterday because the same thing is happening with my refrigerator, I followed the steps you did and it still doesn't make ice, and I wanted to ask you if it worked for you, or if not, what did you do to solve it?

[@dumbolddad]

Yes, our ice maker started working.

[@Abm9243]

@@dumbolddad Thank you very much for responding! My refrigerator still doesn't work, it doesn't pour water!

[@chuckredd9131]

Might have a different problem as I do. I took it a step further. I opened the freezer door and disconnected the water line and blew into it to make sure no ice. None! i'm assuming it might be the unit itself, not heating some-what to dump the ice. (my water line is at the bottom of door and has a blue line for the ice maker. Make sure to turn off water supply BEFORE doing this.) Next step, buy another unit, I'm on my third one now, ( X $100+) fridge is 5 years old. I did pour a small amount of water in ice tray & it wouldn't dump.

[@CheyenneBurnworth]

How long after reset should I know if it’s working? I didn’t see any water leaking from the little spout but I do have ice in my tray and the arm was moving after reset like yours did.

[@yoyodyne33]

Mine went around 3 or 4 times before the water finally came out.

[@AngieKoch]

Thank you so much for the video, it worked like a charm!

[@dumbolddad]

about an hour

[@WKRPinCINN]

Wish you would have included how you cleaned off the goop

[@abrahamgonzalez3568]

That water spout that you cleaned keeps freezing on me. It's got a slow leak and it turns into an icicle. Any way to prevent that?

[@dianatyropanis5740]

That's what keeps happening to ours

[@DonleeHamblin]

Folks can not get water to freeze in my ice make, could I have a level sensor bad and if so how do I check it. Have reset it several times and have install new water filter.

[@dumbolddad]

Thanks for watching.

[@jmello]

When I press the reset button, nothing happens. I can feel ice in there, but it doesn’t eject. 😢

[@dumbolddad]

I wish I could help more.

[@jmello]

@@dumbolddad I appreciate you replying. I was able to fix it. Well...not exactly. I had to replace it. The reset button was actually working, but the ice was frozen to the side so much that the eject arm wouldn't move the ice. From what I understand, the ice tray has a heating element that releases the ice from the container so the arm can eject it.

[@kyle22225]

Same here. Pretty annoying

[@treybennett1875]

These ice makers are a pain. Replaced ours twice in over a month. Two days since last replacement and it has only made half the bin

[@garymuenzeler5573]

Wow. Great vid. Mine had ice sitting in there too. Water spout was clear. Held reset button and Shazam! It works again. A label on the reset button would’ve been nice.

[@DonleeHamblin]

Getting water into the ice tray but temperature is freezing to produce ice.

[@dumbolddad]

Thanks for watching.

[@prpkdkids]

need help please... my happiness did not last long. I only see about 20 or so ice cubes this morning. Any suggestions? or should I call for help

[@dumbolddad]

sorry, I wish I could help

[@BassKing916]

What’s wrong when it keeps freezing up?

[@chuckredd9131]

Appliance repair man told me to keep freezer temperature at 6 to 7 degrees F.

[@Tearsofthekingdom1982]

Hi dumb old dad I have a question my refrigerator ice maker didn’t work for a long time and one day it started working for few days and it stop and I did the reset thing but my refrigerator ice maker didn’t respond to the reset and I has in the past saying it needs a filter change but my refrigerator runs on water cleaning system with its own filters is the ice maker computerized has a different brain than regular old ice makers
