LG Refrigerator Repair – Massillon, OH (LMXS28626S/08)

We completed an LG refrigerator repair on Jolynn St NE in Massillon, OH. The customer reported their refrigerator ice maker not working, showing an error code for ice maker thermistor error, and the ice bucket was cracked. After dropping off the replacement ice bucket, we found the icemaker was working good at this point and did not require service.

The Problem

The customer’s LG refrigerator ice maker was not working and showing an error code for ice maker thermistor error. Additionally, the ice bucket was cracked.

Diagnosis

Upon inspection, we determined the cracked ice bucket was the primary issue preventing proper ice maker operation. The icemaker itself was functioning properly once the damaged bucket was addressed.

The Repair

• Parts replaced: AKC73249305 — BUCKET ASSEMBLY ICE
• Work performed: Dropped off ice bucket replacement
• Result: Icemaker is working good at this point, did not service

Is It Worth Repairing?

LG refrigerators are generally well-built appliances, and the LMXS28626S is a solid model. A simple ice bucket replacement is definitely worth doing rather than replacing the entire refrigerator, especially when the icemaker mechanism itself is functioning properly.

Maintenance Tips for LG Refrigerators

• Replace the water filter every 6 months to prevent mineral buildup that can affect ice maker performance
• Clean the ice maker and bucket monthly with warm water to prevent odors and ensure proper operation
• Check door seals regularly on LG models to maintain proper temperature and prevent ice maker thermistor errors
