FIXED LG Refrigerator LFXS29626S runs but not cooling as it should

[mof3wah]

Great to hear. LG decided to fix our refrigerator too as a goodwill measure. Replaced compressor and condenser, refill, it's working like a charm at the moment. I had tested the board already and it appeared to be fine and only required a firmware update for the new compressor. per the tech, they see more compressor failures than the board. Took 24-48 hours to normalize and now it's holding temps like it should. Now, fingers crossed.

That's great!! I'm so happy for you! I'm glad yours is repaired and working well!

I'm really excited to be able to use mine again. lol

We don't always realize the small blessings until we have to do without them.

At least I got my 10,000 steps in, going to the garage and back to get anything.

Jake, I also have the same model refrigerator an LFXS29626S and had the compressor and coils replaced in Jan 22, due to the refrigerator and freezer not staying cold or making ice. It seems like it has the same problem all over again. I purchased 2 thermometers and the freezer and fridge are below where they should be. I have contacted LG support and they are useless. I have checked the fan which is running and the coils to make sure they were not frozen, which they were not. I did notice a little water laying in the pan by the fan. I have no idea where to go from here, any ideas???

Yes I know, but you have to keep contacting them to have them come back out again to fix it properly, you sure don't want to spend any of your own money to fix it, because its a sealed system problem and they have to cover it under their warranty.
