How to Reset Any LG Top Mount Freezer Refrigerator
Resetting an LG top-freezer (top mount) refrigerator usually fixes control glitches, cooling issues, or a frozen display.
1. Simple Power Reset (most effective method)
This works on almost all LG top-freezer models.
Steps:
Unplug the refrigerator from the wall outlet
(or turn off the circuit breaker)
Wait 5 to 10 minutes
Plug it back in or restore power
Wait for the unit to restart and stabilize
This clears minor electronic errors and resets the control board.
2. Control Panel Reset (if your model has digital controls)
If buttons are responsive:
Press and hold “Refrigerator Temp” + “Freezer Temp” together for 5–10 seconds
Or hold the “Lock” button for 3–5 seconds to unlock, then adjust settings again
Some models reset when the display flashes or beeps
3. Ice Maker Reset (if applicable)
If the ice maker is the issue:
Turn the ice maker OFF
Wait 30–60 seconds
Turn it back ON
Allow up to 24 hours for normal ice production
4. After Reset: What to Do
Set temperatures again:
Refrigerator: 37°F (3°C)
Freezer: 0°F (-18°C)
Let the unit run for 12–24 hours before checking results
