light was not going on sometimes, or needed wiggling to work
purchased a new switch. The old switch just needed to be lightly pried out with a screw driver, then it was simple to unplug the old, and plug in the new. Voila! Light !

Both guide rails had cracked at the front end I guess do to excessive weight in the drawer.
Simply removed the drawer, then removed the shelf above which held the guides, removed the guides ( 3 screws per side )and replaced them.

Leak in water filter supply line
I found a crack in the pex line from the valve up the back of the refrigerator to the water filter. I could not find the correct 5/16" size line locally to replace it. A guy in plumbing at Home Depot said he always repaired them by cutting out the crack and finding a piece of clear vinyl line that would fit tightly over the cracked pex to splice in a fix with hose clamps. I did that and it was a really bad idea. The line was obviously fatigued and failing because it just cracked further up and leaked again. I then looked up and ordered the correct line (actually both the supply and return since they were available). Installing the new lines was a breeze. The pex connectors are simple to disconnect and reconnect. Wish I had done that to start with. I looked for a youtube video for the proper replacement steps but all I found was a video of a guy who cut out a crack and stuck a pex connector in to replace the cracked section. By doing that he pulled slack from the valve end of the line which didn't exist and cracked the line again. I don't know why anyone would mess with patching one of these lines. The correct parts are available, cut to the right length, and removing and replacing them at the valve and the filter is dead simple.

The rails for our cheese drawer broke
Just unscrew screws from old rails (still in refridgerator ), and screw them into new rails. We tried to order these parts from another online part site and we got the wrong parts. Partselect.com had drawing of our fridge and it was very easy to navigate through the web site. Thank you!

Each time we've had to move we have to remove the doors from the fridge to get it thru the front door.since water and ice run thru the freezer door there are 2 tubes that connect at the bottom of the freezer door that aren't meant to be separated very often if ever.it's easier to cut the tubing on b
With alot of elbow grease and a pair of pliars we managed to get the old connector off wo cuttig the tubing as the tubing was getting to short from being cut once to many times & there was no more play in the length.Original connector was a different color and shapped slightly different than the new one so was a bit concerned that I had ordered the wrong part but it went one very easily & did not leak. We even managed to remove it again just to see if it was possible wo cutting again. it came off with no trouble.I would say the replacement part was a better fit than the original simply because we could remove it easily wo having to cut the tube!

Two Door baskets were broken
We had two of the door baskets break and so we had no room in the frig. My husband and I were talking about maybe just replacing the frig. He said lets see if we can find the parts online. So we came to this site, found our parts, ordered. Received very fast and installed seconds. Saved money on buying a new frig.

Ice cubes did not drop out of tray when the ice maker cycled
1) Take out 3 screws from top of icemaker. 2) Unplug electrical connector from wiring harness. 3) Remove icemaker unit from freezer and then remove frozen cube sensor with clip and rear insulation. 4) With your hands pull cube tray motor out of the holding clips with the tray- if this is too difficult, spread bracket and only remove the tray from the unit. 5) Insert new tray into slots and install new or existing ice sensor, insulation, and sensor clip. 6) Reinstall icemaker unit to ceiling of freezer, don't forget to plug into wiring harness. 7) Turn unit on and make some ice!

Manufacturer Cahnged Part Desin
Not the fault of partselect. The manufacturer had decided to modify my part and still specifying that it was the NEW part number and that it was the direct replacement (shame on LG). Well its not the same part. The partselect CSR worked with me to try and find the previous design to no avail, even going so far as to give me the phone number of an obsolete parts seller... wow! Without a whimper parts select credited my account for the part that would not fit!! Without a doubt I will use them again. Way to stand behind your sale!! And also I got the parts within two days, amazing. The ones that did fit were well packed in perfect condition and on time. DON'T HESITATE TO USE THIS COMPANY
