LG Refrigerator LFX28968ST Water or Ice dispense is always ON (micro switch replacement)

[@davegallant7352]

How did you pull off the water dispenser plate? It was off at the start of the video.... My water stopped working on a fridge that is almost exactly the same, and I think it needs the same switch replacement. Also - do you have a part number for the switch?

You can pull at it and it'll come off. The parts are linked in the description.

@@YoDan Thanks - part on order. Do you think it was necessary to remover that front plate to replace the switch? Seems like you can access the switch without pulling it off.

@@davegallant7352 Yeah you'll need to remove the front plate see @5:39. The switch sits on tabs. Maybe you can without it, but you'll probably break the tabs.

@@YoDan Thanks, pulled off the front plate (busted one of the tabs while doing it. Turns out the switch is working fine, there is something wonky with the white lever. I'll need to pull it all apart tonight, and try to reset the lever. I just hope the pin that it rotates about it not busted.

@@davegallant7352 Yeah its impossible not to break on of those tabs on the front plate. It should still clip back on fine.
