LG Refrigerator Repair – NORTH CANTON, OH (795.71033.010)

A North Canton homeowner called when their LG refrigerator stopped cooling and ice started melting. Unit was running, but not cooling — a clear sign of a major system failure that would require replacement.

The Problem

The customer reported their refrigerator/freezer not cooling, with ice melting in the freezer compartment. The unit appeared to be running normally, but wasn’t maintaining proper temperatures in either section.

Diagnosis

Unit was running, but not cooling. High pressure off of compressor was abnormal. Compressor and condenser fan were running. The customer had it pulled out in kitchen already, so we visibly inspected it and checked temperature on high side through the vent in the back. The diagnosis pointed to a complete system failure requiring unit replacement.

The Repair

• Parts replaced: None
• Work performed: Diagnostic inspection and temperature checks
• Result: Recommended replacing unit. No charge for today’s visit

Is It Worth Repairing?

When an LG refrigerator’s cooling system fails this completely, replacement is typically the most cost-effective option. Major refrigeration system repairs often approach or exceed the cost of a new unit, especially on older models. This customer made the right call getting a professional assessment before investing in expensive repairs.

Maintenance Tips for LG Refrigerators

• Keep condenser coils clean — LG models with bottom-mount coils need cleaning every 6 months
• Check door seals regularly for proper magnetic seal to maintain cooling efficiency
• Don’t overload refrigerator compartments as this restricts air circulation in LG’s cooling system
