“Washer error code OE kept appearing. Drain pump was failing. Replaced and the washer drains properly now. Quick turnaround.”
LG refrigerator ice maker not working is a known issue affecting LRFXS2503 series. Our technicians specialize in LG-specific diagnostics and repair.
Our Sub-Zero fridge stopped cooling right before a dinner party in our Noe Valley home. The technician arrived within two hours, diagnosed a faulty compressor relay, and had it running perfectly before guests arrived.

LG refrigerator ice maker not working is typically caused by frozen water line or failed water inlet valve. LG-specific factor: craft ice maker slow production — limited to 3 spheres per cycle by design. Repair costs $100-$350 with free diagnostic and 90-day warranty.

Seeing one of these codes? It likely indicates ice maker not working.
Sacramento hard water creates mineral deposits inside the LG ice maker mold that prevent clean ice release. The Craft Ice spheres crack or stick, triggering the ER IS error. Rancho Cordova and Citrus Heights homes with well water see this within 12 months. We recommend running a descaling cycle and installing an inline filter at the water supply.
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.
