You should receive a Nobel Prize for this, HardworkandtheTruth! Thank you for solving this for all who suffer from the LG "Smart" buzzer. FYI my top freezer refrigerator model LTCS20220 has a much smaller (3x3 inch) housing on top of the unit (front right) with the same blue buzzer and the same wiring harness plugged into the same orange receptacle. I really wanted to use a hammer for this job, but thank you for showing me the more civilized solution.

It's unbelievable how they didn't add an option to turn it off. Not to mention that this warning system is really absurd, how many people are going to leave the door open and forget about it vs keep it open because they're actually using the fridge and yet they have to deal with the beeps knowing damn well that yes, the door is open??!

Thanks so much for this hack. Its unbelievable to me that with all the options and extras available on these new fridges, they still don't trust you to close your own damn door without being bullied into it. When I get home from the grocery store late at night or want to make a middle of the night snack, I would have to repeatedly close and reopen the door before that piercing noise breaks the silence and wakes my daughter. I asked my Dad if he knew of any way to fix it, he said it wasn't possible. He's gonna be so stoked, we're always joking about taking a sledgehammer to it. And the video was short and to the point. A lot of content producers out there need to work on their editing skills, but not this guy. Thanks again!!!!

Thank you!!!!! We have been traumatized by incessant useless beeping periodically since our LG was only a year old. Our owners manual claims the beep cannot be disabled. However, thanks to your video, although our model is different from yours, I found a small panel on top of the fridge, unscrewed it, and low and behold, there was a blue beeper just like yours. We only had the LH cable, but I disconnected it, and then cautiously experimented by opening the door to remove some food, and then I waited . . . no beeps! My son, especially, could not tune out the warning beeps at their 30 sec. intervals (just far enough apart to not be construed by the brain as "white noise") and he was about to drive the rest of us insane along with him. And, as someone else pointed out, your explanation to just unplug the cable negated my need for Plan B, which was a hammer! Meanwhile, the poor fridge door has more than its fair share of dents, since kicking the door on the lower right, about a foot above the floor, has been the only occasionally successful method of stopping the beeps in the past. Bless you!

Awesome! Thanks for figuring that out and why did it take me so long to find your solution online? Does anyone - even one person - like this feature? Did focus groups or product development teams at LG come back saying - please make sure that you can never turn off the door alarm - even when you are loading bags worth of groceries or cleaning out the fridge or deciding what snack to eat - because people love to hear a beeping sound every minute. So relaxing. Really a $3000 fridge that beeps every minute forever and can’t be turned off!?!?? Seriously? Unplugging the wired plugs was much more difficult for me though. I found it easier to remove the entire small board with the alarm in it, then unclip the white plugs and then clip the board back in. Forever grateful! Will think of you every time my fridge is open and is completely silent :)

Unfortunately this didn’t work with our LG model. We did managed to stop the beeping by removing the panel above the electronic display on the door, this gives you access to remove the whole panel. At the top is a small connector, turn the power off to fridge first and disconnect the wires. On the back of the circuit board is the door alarm, we popped off the alarm cover which made the connection causing the beeping. Now reconnect the wires and return the panel into the door. Now turn the power back on and hopefully your beeping has stopped like ours did. Hope this helps 😊.

@tr278 Жыл бұрын
For anyone still searching for a solution after this method was unsuccessful… just to the left of where the guy in the video is unplugging the cords there is another long computer chip. On that computer chip on the right hand side there is a small round speaker covered in a black housing. The housing is approximately the size of a nickel(USD) and about .25inch thick. Grab that housing and pull it off. It comes off very easily and the speaker will pop off with the cover. The speaker can NOT be reattached so If you plan on restoring it you’ll have to buy a new speaker housing or know how to solder the speaker wires back together.

First thanks! So after 2 years have you noticed anything else affected by unplugging that? I just got an LG refrigerator and spend OVER 1 hr on the phone with them. No resolution. They had me under that cap and they ID'd a different connection, it was wrong. So I unplugged both of the connections on that buzzer board determined the same plug as you worked in shutting it off. But I didn't leave it unplugged because I didn't know if it would affect anything else. Then I found your video and felt better about my observation.

Great video! Hey,..did you unplug the fridge before doing that or is that not necessarily required for this task? I'm assuming my LFXS26973S model has a similar looking wire connection and buzzer even though mine has just a small housing that is placed over a smaller portion of the left and right doors and not a long housing that runs all the way across like yours. I'm assuming the right housing is the one on my model that hides the buzzer since that also is the side that has the wifi icon nearest to it.

Sadly this doesn't work on m new LG fridge, the buzzer is coming from a different location soldered to the motherboard. I did find putting a small piece of dynamat over the hole made it a lot quieter and a lot more bearable though. I've also found that if you put a magnet next to the door you can "trick" it into thinking the door is closed, sadly this also means the lights will not turn on either. Probably similar to "Sabbath Mode" but it won't turn off after 96 hours. I'm a techy, and I've about had it with all the new appliances... they are horrible, more problems then features that I don't use.

If you’re still looking for a solution, there is a small round speaker housing (about the size of a US nickel and about .25 thick and if you pop it off the speaker will come off with it and no more beeping! In this guys video you can see the chip he’s working on. It’s the same on the newer fridges.. but look off to the left of that board and you will see a longer board with more crap on it. On the right hand side of that board you’ll find the little round black speaker housing. Literally just grab it and pull. The cover will pop off and the speaker comes off with it.
