Seeing one of these codes? It likely indicates ice maker not working.
Bay Area LG Craft Ice failures often surprise owners who expected higher production rates — the feature makes 3 large spheres per 24-hour cycle by design. High water pressure in San Francisco (60-80 psi) can actually cause overfill and ice jams. Technicians often install a pressure regulator during ice maker service on Peninsula homes.
Access ice maker test mode: press and hold Ice Plus for 3 seconds, listen for motor engagement and water valve click
Check water supply pressure at refrigerator connection — LG requires minimum 20 psi, optimal 40-60 psi for proper fill
Inspect Craft Ice maker tray for mineral buildup or ice bridging between sphere molds — clean with warm water if present
Test ice maker thermostat continuity — LG part ACM73600001 should close circuit below 15F to trigger harvest
The technician removes the ice maker assembly from the freezer compartment to inspect the motor, tray, and thermostat. Mineral buildup in the mold is cleaned with a descaling solution. If the motor gear assembly is worn, the entire ice maker unit is replaced — about 45 minutes for standard models, 60-75 minutes for Craft Ice units due to tighter packaging.

“My exprience with Easy Bear was absolutely superior from the beginning. I had a Subzero decide to quit. Daniel assessed the issue immediately, ordered the required new " motherboard" and had it installed within three days. My prior replacement of said part took 5 months during Covid. Daniel is smart, professional, clearly knows his trade . I most definitely will use Easy Bear in the future.”

“Daniel the technician came to diagnose what's causing our washing machine water overflowing. He didn't actually have to do anything to solve the issue, because as soon as he turned it back on, it began to work properly, but explained what the probable cause was. He was sincere and clear on the matter related to the situation. I wasn't charged for his visit as I was told ahead of time. Stanislav was also cordial arranging for all of the process. I will call them next time I need an appliance service without hesitation.”
