Evaporator Fan Motor
This DC motor facilitates the convection of cold air from the evaporator coils into the refrigerator cabin. In 'freezing up' conditions, moisture-laden ice encapsulates the fan blades, causing the motor to stall or suffer electrical failure due to high torque resistance. Replacing the fan restores the mechanical airflow required to lower the compartment temperature once the ice is cleared.

Main Power Control Board
The main PCB governs the defrost cycle duration and frequency; LG has identified that original factory logic may be insufficient for high-humidity environments. Updated boards feature revised defrost algorithms that ensure all frost is liquidated from the coils before the cooling cycle resumes. This prevents the cumulative ice buildup that ultimately chokes the fan and airflow ducts.

Defrost Thermistor
This sensor monitors the temperature of the evaporator coils to signal the control board when to terminate the defrost heater. If the thermistor's resistance drifts out of spec, it may signal a 'warm' state prematurely, leaving residual ice on the coils. This residual ice acts as a seed for the rapid frost accumulation described by the user's symptoms.
