It seems that the compressor is not working. If so, then you must get the compressor to work first. If it is working then the feron gas may have leaked out. If so, then please get it refilled.

in most cases its a problem with the thermos control system this is the main device that turns the compressor on have it checked to make sure its working

Hi,Here is a tip that I wrote about the reasons why ice makers do not work.Ice Maker Problems and Ice Maker Troubleshootingheatman101

If on replaccement of the same rating of fuse blows out then the microprocessor board must be investigated for a short. It can be failure in the power supply or a protector or a regulator but will not be difficult to confirm as a multimeter in continuity range will be able to figure out the short in the tested line.
Use the logic to check from the fuse to the board, release off any connector to confirm the section.

the man board is the problem.
replace it with new one..

fuse blew, if you have a contract have it repaired but try to keep the old mother board. (they just throw it away anyway, otherwise they are not authorized to work on LG units) you will see the culprit fuse. have it replaced in an electronic shop, (have them put in a fuse holder) and keep a few extra fuses Just in case... next time you could replace the board yourself.

replacing the mother board is the option that a repair person uses if they are authorized to Repair LG parts. on the back of the unit there is a square plate remove it and you will see the mother board. on the bottom right of the mother board is the culprit fuse. its soldered in. you will have to go to an electronic store and get another fuse and either replace it or have them replace it for you. i went to radio shack and picked up the fuse holder, soldered it in and in the future will only need to replace fuse.

You have a blown fuse on the line incoming voltage circut. Remove the main board cover on the back and look for a glass metal ends 20 amp fuse. You can remove the fuse carefully with a soldering iron and solder a new one back in and you will be running again!

Recommend calling LG customer service at 1 800 243-0000, they will direct you to your local authorized dealer for parts.

Check the computer board in the back of the fridge to the middle left, unplug unit first.

The making of ice may speed up a bit after the whole unit interior and insulation is cooled down.

You have a blown fuse on the main board. It can be replaced with a new 20 amp glass fuse using a soldering iron. Remove the cover and check the fuse if it is burned that is your problem
