Several faults repeat on LG units. First, the compressor stops cooling while fans still run. Second, the fresh-food side drifts warm. Third, the ice maker stops. Because LG uses a linear compressor and an inverter, electrical testing is usually part of the diagnosis.

LG linear compressors have been a known failure point on some model years. Typically the unit stops cooling although fans keep running. However, the fault is not always the compressor itself, because the inverter board can fail in the same way. Therefore both are tested before anything is replaced.

Usually this means airflow rather than refrigerant. If the evaporator fan has stalled, then cold air never reaches the fridge. Likewise, a defrost fault ices the coil. Therefore the freezer holds while the fridge warms.

Possibly, because LG has offered extended coverage on some linear compressors. However, terms depend on your model and purchase date. Therefore check with LG directly, since warranty work must usually go through an authorised servicer.

A code shows which self-check failed. However, it does not name the broken part on its own. Since LG codes vary between model families, we need the model number to read it correctly.

That depends on which part failed. For example, fans, sensors, boards and drains usually justify repair. However, a sealed-system failure on an older unit often does not. Because the difference is significant, we tell you before starting.

Usually the tag sits inside the fresh-food compartment. First, check the left wall near the crisper drawers. However, sometimes it hides behind a drawer instead. Because the number identifies the exact parts, we always ask for it first.

Most visits finish the same day, because we stock the parts that fail most often. However, if your model needs an ordered part, then we return once it arrives. Either way, you get the timeline before we start.

Yes. First the technician inspects the unit. Then you get a clear price before anything is repaired. Because nobody likes surprises, no work begins until you approve that quote.

Clean them about twice a year. However, if you have pets, then clean them more often. Since dust makes the compressor work harder, regular cleaning lowers running costs. In addition, it extends the life of the unit.

Set the fridge near 37°F and the freezer at 0°F. However, do not rely on the display alone. Instead, place a thermometer in a glass of water. Because water reacts slowly, it shows the true shelf temperature.

Usually we can come the same day. Because our technicians are EPA Section 608 certified, they can handle sealed-system work too. So call (470) 847-9076 with your model number, and we will give you an arrival window.
