LG Refrigerator Ice Maker (AEQ36756919)

The LG Refrigerator Ice Maker is the self-contained unit inside your refrigerator that freezes water into ice cubes and releases them into the storage bin on a timed cycle. It receives water from the inlet valve, freezes it in a mold, and uses a heating element and ejector arm to release finished cubes automatically.

The LG Refrigerator Ice Maker can stop working properly due to a failed thermostat, worn ejector motor, cracked ice mold, or buildup of mineral deposits from hard water over time. Freezing issues, power fluctuations, or a clogged water line can also cause the module to cycle incorrectly or stop producing ice altogether.

Look for these symptoms to help determine if the ice maker is the cause of your problem:

- Refrigerator produces no ice at all

- Ice maker runs continuously without stopping

- Ice cubes are undersized, misshapen, or clumped together

- Ice maker makes loud clicking, grinding, or humming noises during a cycle

- Water leaks inside the freezer compartment near the ice maker unit

- Ice has an unusual taste or odor not resolved by changing the filter

- Ejector arm is stuck, broken, or fails to release ice into the bin
