Thank you for helping us with this error and repair. I understood everything you said. But, I already paid repair service a deposit, $100, to replace the fan motor, $350 total. I'll check your channel first, next time.
Thanks so much... You just saved me about $650. Sears wanted over $750 for Parts and labor. Amazon has the part, and can deliver tomorrow.Thanks for this Info.
Thank you so much for this video. I wouldn't have attempted this motor replacement without it!! Although I have a different model LG French door model I was able to get the motor replaced. You should be very proud of your professional presentation. Again, thanks☺
Thanks, Peter! Directions were perfect. Took me 45 mins from the turning off the breaker & removing the inside shelves to cleaning the shelves and putting the stuff inside.
My daughter purchased the LG LFXS32726S refrigerator about three years ago as a gift for me, she paid approximately $2,600. To date, I have paid approximately $1,200 in repairs. The first repair was $1,000 to replace the compressor and fan motor assembly. Now, the unit constantly displays the "E rf" error code. The problem with my model is the fan motor assembly freezing up. This is due to the fan motor assembly being too small for this unit and therefore, it freezes up causing the ice maker and refrigerator to stop working. LG is no help at all! They are very aware this and similar units have this issue but will not issue a recall. Instead, they want to charge $125 to send a technician to diagnose the problem, plus any charges to repair. They already know what the problem is, so $125 for a diagnosis is a total rip-off. I'm not aware of a permanent fix, only that you need to remove the ice and frost buildup on the fan to get it to work again. Three weeks ago, I paid $200 for a serviceman to remove the ice with a steamer. Two days ago, the issue has returned. (NOTE: as a temporary fix, I can turn off and on again the circuit breaker switch for the refrigerator. It will work again, but no telling how long before the error code shows up again.) I'm at a crossroads what to do. I can't afford to pay $200 once a month to de-ice the fan. I don't want to buy a new refrigerator because I'm going to be selling my house, and if I don't include it with the sale, I don't know if it will fit where I move to. With this said, before I decide to either repair or replace, I will be posting this on numerous social media platforms, as well as several product review websites, including LG's Support Community Forum. Ideally, I would like to get the attention of a decision-maker at LG who will commit to resolving this issue free of charge. To anyone who may read this, I welcome any suggestions and/or advice. Thank you.
@@arwinbuditomo1050 I have the same exact model and it does not making any cooling. Added the 134a. Verified the thermistor and circuit board. The compressor seems to running but no cooling at all.
My mother purchased LG LFXS32726S refrigerator brand new two years ago. Started posting Refrigerator Error Code E, and Freezer Error Code CF today. Shut off for 5 min reset the unit and is working, don't trust it won't come back. Ordering fan motors and will replace them. Hope it fixes the problem.
Thank you! Mine is 18 months old too same problem. Now easily fixed. Wish I would have watched video before ordering part I ordered cheap part from a bad website and it never came. After 6 weeks I ordered from a good site and received it in 5 days.
Sorry for your "bad website" experience. I almost placed order there - but something stopped me before pushing that "submit" button - "too good to be true" - and I google that site and found a lot of bad reviews. Some suggests that credit card account need to change as they use client's credit card for their own purchases - check your statement).
First of all thank you for posting this. My similar Kenmore is doing the EXACT same thing. Did you see an obvious reason why the old fan was making that noise?
Thank you for comment. Fan is making noise [little] even when I keep motor in one hand and spin blade with the other one, so noise coming from motor's bearing. I did not see anything that could cause that problem inside fridge [from normal operation], so my only guess that this fan has manufacturing problem, like small particles/dust that got into motor's bearings during assembly and than slowly damaged those bearings). Old fan is still in working condition [I am keeping it and swapped it with new one couple of weeks ago for a short time - it still works with the same noise].
I bought LMXS30776S used, giving the "E rf" Error, followed the service manual, replaced the fan as well as the board. Still no change! After rest that error appears after 4~5 hours!, Any Suggestion ?
Did anyone have the problem of getting a fan with a different part number? I ordered EAU61505014, that is what the innvoice shows, the package I got is EAU64824402

Nice job! Thanks for going back and filming the repair process. FYI, your English is excellent...for a second language, I had no issues following you.
Thank you.

Edie-Jane Clarke ....I have the same refrigerator, and I think this LG is a piece of junk.

Same here. I renamed LG to LB (Life is Bad if you own it). LG is everywhere in my home. Now will be no more.

Mines is the same thing but I put a new fan on and it didn’t work

Great video. Very helpful. Mine is not cooling. The disassembly of it was on point. Thank you so much.
Hello, where did you purchase the part: EAU61505014?
Whats the name or number of the part and how to find the right one for my refrigerator? I got LG LFX31925ST
I removed that broken fan from fridge,and read it's part number. Other methods I consider not very reliable. Good luck.
I bought LMXS30776S used, giving the "E rf" Error, followed the service manual, replaced the fan as well as the board. Still no change! After rest that error appears after 4~5 hours!, Any Suggestion ?
Where did u get the service manual?
Did you find a resolution for this issue?
could you fix it I have the same problem and already replace the fan
Did anyone have the problem of getting a fan with a different part number? I ordered EAU61505014, that is what the innvoice shows, the package I got is EAU64824402
