Thanks for the help. I didn't know about the "test" button, and I didn't find it mentioned in the instruction manual. After hitting the test button, the tray dumped without having to use a hairdryer. Cheers!

Hooray, I had used the hairdryer to melt a lot of the ice but there was still some in there and when the water came in I knew it would overfill the trays and i'd have the same issues. I had no idea there was a reset button. I pushed it and it finally dumped out the water and the little cubes that were left. I am confident that it will start working properly - at least until it freezes up again. Thank you.

Thank you - was not aware of the test button . Had tried the hairdryer but turning off/on only results in a small amount of movement . I had a new compressor installed , unit sat Empty for a week ( perfect time to pull apart and clean ) .would not dump ice . Just waiting on it to freeze and hopefully dump . Don’t forget to prop Fridge and freezer doors open when not in use Just an inch is fine otherwise they stink.

This was exactly my issue but I didn’t have a reset button, or so I thought. I looked and I looked until finally I saw a square white button and I pressed it and it dumped the ice. Now let’s hope it will dump the ice automatically again from now on. It got stuck after we got a new fuse box installed, guess all the ice froze up. I have one of the new door in door French door fridges with knock knock function. For all the people that don’t see a button with test text next to it. On the left side of the ice tray look from the right side to the left from a downward angle lol and you will see a white square. This is the button that will reset the icetray 😂🙈

@WhatTheFoxSherriFox5 ай бұрын
If you have a water filter on your refrigerator, does it need to be changed? Your inlet valve could be damaged or faulty. Or your freezer could be set too low would be my guess.🤷♀️
@dixie600mhz3 жыл бұрын
We bought an LG LRMDC2306S six weeks ago and have had three service visits so far. Our issue is the craft ice maker that does the spherical balls doesn't work. The root cause for us is that the inlet water pipe running benind the back panel to the craft maker keeps freezing up. Our freezer has been set at +4F but the line still freezes without fail. We've had 6 cubes in 6 weeks. Luckily we're under warranty for 2 years but it looks like LG will be spending lots of time sending folks to our place until they come up with a fix.
@WhatTheFoxSherriFox3 жыл бұрын
That’s terrible! I don’t even really know what to say because that is a different unit altogether… But my initial reaction would be to turn the icemaker off for a couple of days Or as long as it takes for everything to unthaw…even though you have had it serviced sometimes that seems to help if the line is freezing🤷♀️ and then my next question would be are you letting ice back up into the bin? I would empty it and turn it off for a few days and start again... just a suggestion… I am not a refrigerator expert LOL I just know what works when my icemaker gets frozen but I have had similar problems and that’s what I did to other units… Good luck keep us posted as to what the fix is!

@WhatTheFoxSherriFox Жыл бұрын
I would say, make sure the container is placed properly before you close it… sometimes the wheels or blades that turn when the ice is dropping you need to make sure those are in the proper place when you place the container back into the freezer area, And or make sure the door is closing properly, it almost sounds like something is not closing all the way or something is not fitting properly therefore, it is creating ice from a possible runoff of water or something that is just not hitting in the right place if that makes any sense
