SOURCE: Replace Ice maker tubing LG Armoire refrig

Normally I would change the entire tube, but if you like you can take a sample of the tube to a full service hardware store (not a big box where they don't know anything) and get some tubing and / or some insta-push fittings. They are fast and work great.

SOURCE: LG LFC23760SW stopped working-no power. Power

Unplug the unit and remove the board cover. The fuses are soldered in but can be changed with a soldering iron. They are glass and easily spotted on the board.

NOTE: This
is a multi-solution answer since I don't have all the tech from your question to pinpoint your problem
But the solution is in here generically, if you read and study the solutions very,very carefully.
Check Temp inside freezer. It has to be down to about 10 or 15 degrees
This can cause slow ice making if its too high even tho its freezing everything else at 25 degrees
The ref. temp should be about 33-35
The Freezer temp should be 0 to 10 Any thing below these temps is overkill and a waste of elect
The higher the number you turn it up to is the coldest
The icemaker is 110v
See if water is in icemaker.
Pour water in Ice Maker and wait to see if it ejects.
If it ejects thenyou need to replace water valve in rear bottom of fridge(Its the part that
attaches to water line out of wall)
If it doesn't eject then it is a faulty Ice Maker.
If its leaking or no water at icemaker or door either one, then the valve at the rear bottom of ref needs replacing
First I would check the fan in the freezer. Listen to see if it is running
It moves air to the ref from the freezer
Then check to see if freezer control is turned WARMER, which makes the Ref. colder
Also if it is getting drinking water to the door but not to the icemaker (or vice versa) Then you need to replace
the water valve at the bottom rear of the fridge. It is a double valve and one side is not working
Also this might be a common Defrost problem, Ice
is not being melted by the defrost system.The fan can't blow through the coils into the fridge.
Take out back panel of freezer to check for ice buildup. The coils should be clean.
There are three components to a defrost system- a heater,heater thermostat, and a timer unless you have a defrost electronic card.
Its best handled by a Technician but you could possibly do it by taking your model number to the nearest appliance parts store and asking for the parts. They are mostly located in freezer ,behind back panel on freezer coils.except the card which is usually located in ref The parts store will have info
Also check fan undernearh Ref in the rear
Clean condenser coils underneath

I have no sound on my LG32LB9D

Hello
You haven't specified anything about the condition of picture. So I thinks there is no sound; picture OK; and posts this solution. Check out the speaker first. Just place your ear very near to the speaker side of your TV and switch the TV 'ON', by using its main power ON/OFF control [Not with remote control handset]. If you can hear a 'thumb' sound from the speakers the speaker is OK, and the sound output section inside the circuit board of your tV is faulty. Either sound card or audio output IC may be replaced. If you can't hear any 'thumb' sound when you switch ON your TV, the speaker is faulty. Replace the speaker with samee type and impedence. Its impedence will be marked on its magnet [in terms of Ohms]. OK.

1993 Mazda MPV---What type of Brake fluid does it use??? Thanks :)

I think it used to use DOT3 fluid - however, these specs are updated every now and then and it's likely that you can't even purchase the original fluid specified anymore. Any fluid post-dating that specified should be fine.
Hope this helps, please leave feedback, Sherwin

LG Model LFC23760 (French Doors, bottom freezer) power prob

Unplug fridge.
Open panel on back of fridge (the one at hip height that says Service Panel Only - Do Not Remove, blah blah blah)
See pictures here: http://www.amazon.com/LG-LFC23760SW-French-Refrigerator-White/dp/B00198A5C0/ref=cm_cmu_up_thanks_hdr
Replace fuse with 9A 250V slow-burn fuse. I used a gray fuse harness from Radio Shack so that if the fuse needs to be replaced again I can just pop in a new one without doing the soldering over.
I nuked the original fuse, the end-caps and the wires that went from the end-caps/fuse to the motherboard. I replace those wires with some I scavenged off a fresh thermal fuse (also bought at RS, just needed the wires themselves which seemed to be the same diameter/gauge as the original leads) and ran them from the motherboard to the wire harness.
So far, so good!
Good luck to you.

Where do i find the fuse

The fuse is absolutely replaceable, not sure to what the other poster is referring. I just replaced the fuse today (not the main computer, nor the motherboard, nor anything else but the fuse and the approx 1/2" metal wires/leads running from the motherboard to the fuse.
I did mention that others were having problems with this unit to LG Customer Service at that phone number and they were unable to help me out other than to say, Sorry, you don't have an extended warranty on your 15 month old fridge? That's too bad. We feel really bad about that....
Good info about the lights staying on in the fridge though they should be off if the doors are open. Sounds like a larger problem if the lights are always on.
LG's suggestion was that the fridge go on a dedicated line and breaker from your main panel. It's probably good advice and it is advice that I will follow up with a call to my electrician.

More info below:
Here is a little more review:
Unplug fridge. Pull out from wall. Be careful not to stress/break ice-maker line if installed.
Open panel on back of fridge (the one at hip height that says Service Panel Only - Do Not Remove, blah blah blah)
See pictures of opened panel here: http://www.amazon.com/LG-LFC23760SW-French-Refrigerator-White/dp/B00198A5C0/ref=cm_cmu_up_thanks_hdr (more comments posted on Amazon regarding LG Customer Service)

Use a hot iron. (but don't burn yourself).
So far, so good!
If still working in a few hours enjoy a cold beverage... you just saved yourself a lot of $$! The company LG recommended to buy parts was closed (it was a Saturday) and HHGregg was open but they wanted $273 for a replacement motherboard. A trip to RS even if you had to buy a soldering iron and solder is still cheaper than that.

Good luck to you.

LFC23760SW is DEFECTIVE! Woke up to a dark fridge that didn't work. Paid $100 to find out it's a fuse. Apparently this is the same issue for ALOT of other people I've seen posting on the internet. ...

Ours went after 15 months. LG didn't want to hear about it.

Replace fuse and two weeks later the fridge stopped cooling (though freezer still works).

Complete sham. Sorry to say, but all looks, no performance. Garbage company with garbage 1/2-cooked products from phones to fridges.

LG LFC23760SW has no power, plug is good checked with trouble light. is there a reset button?

I have the same issue - along with ALOT of other people I've seen posting on the internet. Even though it's a 20 cent fuse, you have to replace the ENTIRE $200 control board. I say this is a defect (intentional?) built in to happen exactly 13 months after purchase.
