LG LFXS28566S Ice Maker Freezing Over

Ice Maker Assembly

This assembly contains the mold, harvest motor, and internal tray heater. If the heater fails to slightly warm the mold during harvest, the ice sticks to the tray; the unit then refills with water over the existing ice, creating a solid block. Replacing the assembly ensures the harvest-assist mechanism is functional.

Ice Route Cap Assembly

This is the 'flapper' door that seals the ice chute. If the spring or solenoid fails to pull this flush against the housing, warm air from the room migrates into the ice room. The moisture in the air undergoes a phase change directly into frost upon contact with the evaporator-fed ice compartment, eventually encasing the mechanism in ice.

Ice Room Gasket

The Slim SpacePlus design requires a perfect vacuum-style seal between the door-mounted ice room and the refrigerator cabinet. A deformed or torn gasket allows humid air to bypass the thermal barrier, causing localized condensation that freezes into heavy frost, eventually obstructing the ice maker's rotation.
