Why does my LG Refrigerator compressor motor stay on too long?
- MMark ChangSep 3, 2025
Several factors can cause the LG Refrigerator's compressor motor to run longer than expected. If you have a newer model with a larger storage capacity, it naturally requires longer operation periods. Warmer room temperatures will also cause the motor to run more frequently, potentially between 40% to 80% of the time. Frequent door openings or storing a large amount of food can warm the refrigerator, requiring the motor to run longer to cool it back down. Ensure doors are closing properly and clean the condenser pipes.
