Has your LG refrigerator abruptly stopped cooling in both the refrigerator and freezer sections? This is a rather common problem associated with LG Linear Compressor, which plays a pivotal role in the cooling process. We’ll guide you through identifying the issue, seeking professional assistance, and getting your refrigerator back to its optimal cooling performance.
The LG Linear Compressor
At the core of your LG refrigerator’s cooling system lies the Linear Compressor, a critical component responsible for maintaining the ideal temperature in both compartments. Over time, however, the Linear Compressor can encounter problems, leading to sudden cooling disruptions.
Identifying the Issue
When your LG refrigerator’s cooling suddenly falters, consider the following steps to identify potential problems:
- Check for Excessive Frost: Inspect both the refrigerator and freezer sections for excessive frost buildup. Frost accumulation could indicate a deeper issue within the cooling system.
- Reset the Refrigerator: Unplug the refrigerator from the power source for about 5 minutes. This simple reset can help address any software glitches that might affect the cooling system.
- Observe Over a Few Hours: Plug the refrigerator back in after the reset and give it a few hours. Sometimes, temperature fluctuations can be temporary. Keep an eye on whether the temperatures start to normalize.
Please note that if these steps don’t resolve the issue, it’s time to seek professional assistance for a thorough diagnosis.
