My ice maker continues to make ice even when the bin is full. Ice then overflows the bin and drops into the rest of the freezer. It doesn't appear that the lever arm is raising when the bin gets full. There is a separate wire that loops over the bottom of the lever arm, but it seems to just rotate back and forth and doesn't appear to help to raise the lever arm. I've tried taking off the separate wire, in case it was just getting caught in the ice, preventing the arm from raising, but that does no good either. I've also tried removing the shelf just above the ice maker, in case it was preventing the arm from raising, but the bin still overflowed.
OK, there's two possible issues but you have to figure out what is happening. Does the ice maker continue to make ice forever and would fill up the whole freezer section in time OR does the ice maker just "over make" ice that overfills the bin which then falls out? If the ice maker just keeps making ice you need the motor module replaced but if it can be turned off by moving the lever up then you need the "modified lever assy." that is on our service bulletins.
Make sure the arm sw off the ice maker when full ,if not replace gear mech with all sw comes as a unit from samsung spares

The ice maker will shut off if the lever arm it raised. Where do I find the service bulletin? and how to I get a modified lever assembly. - Thanks.

Ice maker does not stop making ice.
It appears that the shutoff arm has to be lifted too high by the ice before it trips the shutoff switch.By that time the ice is already over flowing the bucket.Purchased a new shut off arm with a plastic flap but still same problem.Is there a way to adjust the shutoff switch itself so that the shutoff arm only has to raise slightly to click the switch to off position.
Where would I find a modified lever assy to correct the problem I'm having with the ice maker on my LG LFC25760 French Door Refrigerator?
Thank You, Jared
I have the same problem except that my fridge uses an infared sensor instead of a lever arm. What could be the cause of my ice maker to continue to make ice even if the bin is full or when I manually turn it to the off postion.
I have had my third ice maker installed yesterday. I am so hopeful each time but this effort failed. LG even sent me a new bucket. No luck.Please let me know if anyone has resolved this problem. Thanks
Even when the wire is in the up position it continues to make ice. Its model BCM95.
LG side by side ice maker keeps making ice once bin is full. The plastic lever arm that I suspect should trigger the shut off seems to be in the wrong position. (always up except when new ice is dropped).
Is there a diagram available of the proper postion, when in normal ice making mode?
I have the same problem. My icemaker arm is always straight down. It never rotates up to then fall (to determine if it should continue or stop making ice), so it always makes ice. It does stop when I manually move the arm up.
does not stop making ice when bin is full continues to make ice and it over flows. the sensing arm is pushed up by the ice but it continues to dump ice LG side x side
