LG Refrigerator Ice Maker Won’t Turn Off – How to Fix
The shut-off arm or feeler arm/paddle may be stuck in the down position. Pieces of ice can jam into it and prevent it from going up to turn off the ice maker.
Therefore, switch the ice maker off and jiggle the arm. Loosen it if it is stuck. Make sure it sticks in the up or down position before turning the ice maker back on.
But if the ice maker has a power switch, ensure it is not stuck. Press it to see if it switches from on to off and vice versa. Otherwise, you may have to replace the switch or ice maker.
When the Dispenser Keeps Dispensing…
Press the lock button on the control panel of the refrigerator. Hold it until the icon marked Lock illuminates. This feature locks the ice and water dispenser.
However, if the dispenser does not shut off, it means the switch or lever is sticking. Therefore, clean it with mild soap and warm water. Then, try to pull it out. Push it in and release it again a couple of times in quick succession.
When using the dispenser, try not to dispense into a glass you have filled with sugary or any other drink. When the ice cubes drop into the glass, there is a splash and some of the liquid could get on the lever, causing it to stick over time. Therefore, get the ice before filling the glass with the drink.
