An LG refrigerator that stops cooling in a Miami kitchen is a same-day problem, and it is usually one of two things: the linear compressor, or a frozen evaporator fan. They look identical from the front. The difference in price is about $1,200, so the diagnosis matters more here than on any other appliance we work on. Berne has been an LG Authorized Service Center since July 2026. That gives us LG’s diagnostic software, factory compressors, and the ability to bill LG directly when the compressor is still inside its ten-year part warranty, which it usually is.

LG refrigerator problems and what they actually are

Fridge warm, freezer still cold, fan noise then silence
The evaporator coil in the freezer has iced over and stopped the fan, or the fan motor itself failed. LG French door units throw ER FF (freezer fan) or ER rF (refrigerator fan) when this happens. The cause behind the ice is usually a defrost sensor or defrost heater that stopped cycling. We thaw the coil, replace the failed part, and check the door gaskets, because a gasket that lets Miami humidity in will re-ice the coil within a month.
Both sides warm, compressor running but not cooling
This is the linear compressor call. LG’s inverter linear compressors in units built roughly 2014 through 2020 lose compression without seizing, so the machine hums, the fans run, and nothing gets cold. We confirm it with pressures and current draw, not by guessing. If the serial number falls inside LG’s ten-year compressor part warranty, the compressor is free and you pay labor and refrigerant only. We carry the updated FLB and FLA series replacements.
Ice maker stopped, or ice is thin and hollow
On French door LG units the ice maker sits in the fridge door and depends on a small duct feeding cold air from the freezer. A blocked duct, a failed fill valve, or a stuck ice maker motor are the usual causes. Craft Ice makers have their own mold and heater and fail separately from the cube maker.
Water dispenser slow or dead
Frozen water line in the door, a failed dispenser valve, or a filter that was never changed. We check the filter first because it is the free answer. A door line that froze once will freeze again if the door heater has failed, so we test that as well.
Water under the crisper drawers or on the floor
A clogged defrost drain. Meltwater from the defrost cycle has nowhere to go and runs into the fridge section, then out the front. We clear the drain, treat it, and confirm the defrost cycle runs so the water stops.
Error codes Er dH, Er IS, Er 1F, Er CO
dH is a defrost heater fault, IS is the ice maker sensor, 1F is the ice fan, CO is a communication error between the main board and the display. Each one points to a specific part on LG’s diagnostic map, which is why the code on the display is the first thing dispatch will ask you for.
Loud clicking or buzzing from the back
Inverter board trying to start a compressor that will not start, or a condenser fan hitting a wire. The inverter board is a $250 fix. If the compressor is the reason it will not start, that is the compressor story above.

The LG compressor warranty, in plain terms

LG covers the linear compressor part for ten years from the date of purchase on nearly every French door and side-by-side sold in the United States since 2014. The labor is not covered after the first year, and neither is the refrigerant, so a compressor job on a six-year-old LFXS runs about $500 instead of $1,400. Bring the purchase receipt or the serial number; we can look up the build date from the serial if the receipt is gone. If the unit was part of the 2020 settlement class, ask us, because some owners still have extended labor coverage they do not know about.

Repair or replace

Fans, sensors, heaters, valves, ice makers and boards are worth doing on any LG refrigerator under twelve years old. A compressor inside its part warranty is worth doing at almost any age. A compressor out of warranty on a unit past nine years is where we start quoting a new refrigerator alongside the repair, because the repair reaches half the price of the machine. A counter-depth or built-in look unit tips the math back toward repair, since replacement means a cabinet fit as well as a fridge.

Frequently asked questions

Do you repair LG refrigerators in Miami and Broward?
Yes, across Miami-Dade, Broward and Palm Beach, seven days a week. Berne is an LG Authorized Service Center. No-cooling calls get same-day slots most days when you call before noon at (754) 345-4515.
Why is my LG fridge warm but the freezer cold?
Almost always a frozen evaporator coil that has stopped the fan, caused by a failed defrost sensor or heater. Repair runs $160 to $380 depending on the part. It is not the compressor, and anyone who quotes a compressor for that symptom without pulling the back panel is guessing.
Is the LG linear compressor still under warranty?
The compressor part is covered for ten years from purchase on most LG refrigerators sold since 2014. Labor and refrigerant are yours after year one, so a warranty compressor job runs $420 to $680 instead of $1,100 to $1,700. We file the claim with LG directly.
How much does an LG refrigerator compressor cost to replace?
$420 to $680 when the part is under LG’s warranty, $1,100 to $1,700 when it is not. We confirm the failure with pressure and current readings before quoting, because a frozen coil produces the same warm fridge for a fraction of the price.
What does ER FF mean on an LG refrigerator?
Freezer fan error. The evaporator fan is blocked by ice or has failed. We thaw the coil, replace the fan or the defrost part that let it ice over, and check the gaskets so it does not come back.
Why does my LG ice maker make thin or hollow ice?
Low water fill. A partly clogged filter, a weak fill valve, or a frozen fill tube. On French door units the door ice maker also needs the cold-air duct from the freezer clear. Repair runs $180 to $460 depending on what failed.
Should I repair a 10-year-old LG French door refrigerator?
For a fan, sensor, valve, ice maker or board, yes. For a compressor still under its ten-year part warranty, yes. For an out-of-warranty compressor at ten years, we quote a new unit alongside the repair and let you decide with both numbers.
