LG Refrigerator Repair – Canton, OH (LSXS26366D/02)

We responded to a service call in Canton, OH for an LG refrigerator where the ice maker was leaking water into the cube reservoir and sometimes wouldn’t make cubes. Our diagnosis revealed a faulty water valve assembly that was seeping water when it shouldn’t have been running.

The Problem

The customer reported that their LG refrigerator’s ice maker was leaking water into the cube reservoir and sometime doesn’t make cubes. This intermittent ice production combined with water leakage indicated a control issue with the water supply system.

Diagnosis

The ice maker valve was seeping water when the ice maker was not calling for water. This caused ice blocks to form in the ice maker ice tray. The ice block then prevented the ice maker from cycling property when it was supposed to dump the ice.

The Repair

• Parts replaced: AJU34125568 — Valve Assembly – Water
• Work performed: Turned the water flow down at the supply valve
• Result: Ice maker now cycles properly without water leakage

Is It Worth Repairing?

LG refrigerators like this LSXS26366D model are generally well-built appliances that respond well to targeted repairs. Ice maker valve failures are common wear items that, once replaced, typically restore full functionality for years. This repair makes good economic sense on a quality side-by-side refrigerator.

Maintenance Tips for LG Refrigerators

• Replace the water filter every 6 months to prevent mineral buildup that can damage ice maker valves
• Clean the ice maker bin monthly and check for ice clumping that could indicate water leakage
• Keep the refrigerator level to ensure proper ice maker operation and water flow
