Why does the water from my LG LFXS29766 Refrigerator have a bad taste or odor?

  If the water from your LG refrigerator has a bad taste or odor, it could be due to minerals such as sulfur in the water supply, which may require a water filter. Also, the water filter may be exhausted and need replacement approximately every 6 months. If the refrigerator was recently installed, dispense 2.5 gallons of water (flush for approximately 5 minutes) to remove trapped air and contaminants.

Why is food freezing in my LG LFXS29766 Refrigerator compartment?

  If food is freezing in your LG refrigerator compartment, it could be because food with high water content was placed near an air vent; rearrange these items away from the vents. The refrigerator temperature control might be set incorrectly; adjust the control one increment at a time and wait for the temperature to stabilize. The refrigerator should not be operated in temperature below 55°F (13°C).

  If your LG refrigerator or freezer section is too warm, several factors could be contributing. If the refrigerator was recently installed, it may take up to 24 hours for each compartment to reach the desired temperature. Check if the air vents are blocked and rearrange items to allow air to flow throughout the compartment. Reduce the frequency and duration of door openings. Ensure the unit is not installed in a hot location (above 110F). Allow hot food to cool to room temperature before putting it in the refrigerator. Make sure the doors are closed correctly. Adjust the temperature control one increment at a time and wait for the temperature to stabilize. Finally, wait 30 minutes after the defrost cycle has completed to confirm the proper temperature has been restored.

Why does my LG LFXS29766 ice have a bad taste or odor?

  If the ice from your LG refrigerator has a bad taste or odor, it could be due to several reasons. The water supply might contain minerals such as sulfur, which may require a water filter. If the icemaker was recently installed, discard the first few batches of ice. Ice stored for too long can also develop a bad taste or odor, so throw away old ice and make a new supply. Improperly stored food in either compartment can cause odors to migrate to the ice, so rewrap the food. Additionally, the interior of the refrigerator or the ice storage bin may need to be cleaned. Empty and wash the bin, ensuring it is completely dry before reinstalling.

  Your LG refrigerator might not be dispensing ice if the doors are not closed completely. Check the ice bin for ice cubes clumping together and break them up if necessary. Clear the delivery chute of frost or ice fragments with a plastic utensil. Ensure the dispenser display is not locked by pressing and holding the Lock button for three seconds. Also, make sure the ice bin is not empty and the shutoff (arm/sensor) is not obstructed.

Why is my LG LFXS29766 Refrigerator or Freezer section not cooling?
- M
  Micheal HamiltonAug 27, 2025
  Your LG refrigerator or freezer section might not be cooling because the refrigerator control is set to OFF. Turn the control ON and refer to the Setting the Controls section for proper temperature settings. The refrigerator may be in the defrost cycle; wait 30 minutes and confirm the proper temperature has been restored. If the refrigerator was recently installed, it may take up to 24 hours to reach the desired temperature. If the refrigerator was recently relocated, allow it to stand upright for 24 hours before connecting it to power.

  If your LG refrigerator is not dispensing ice, there are several possible reasons. Ice will not dispense if any of the refrigerator doors are left open. Infrequent use of the dispenser can cause ice cubes to clump together; break up the ice cubes in the ice bin. A clogged delivery chute with frost or ice fragments can also be the issue; remove the ice bin and clear the chute with a plastic utensil. The dispenser display may be locked; press and hold the Lock button for three seconds to unlock it. Finally, the ice bin may be empty; it can take up to 90 minutes for additional ice to be available once the bin is exhausted.
