What's your problem?vent on inside covered with ice. not cooling properly

If your LG refrigerator is only making ice when you open it up and push the inside button, and the complete fridge is not cooling well, there are a few things you can check:

1. Check the temperature settings: Make sure the temperature settings for the fridge and freezer are set correctly. If the temperature is too high, it can cause the fridge to not cool properly.
2. Check the air vents: Make sure the air vents inside the fridge and freezer are not blocked by food or other items. Blocked air vents can prevent proper air circulation and cause cooling issues.
3. Check the door gaskets: Make sure the door gaskets are sealing properly. If there is air leaking through the door gaskets, it can cause the fridge to not cool properly.
4. Check the condenser coils: Make sure the condenser coils on the back of the fridge are clean and free of dust and debris. Dirty condenser coils can cause the fridge to not cool properly.

As for the error code E 1S or 15, it indicates a problem with the ice maker fan. This fan is responsible for circulating air over the ice maker to prevent frost buildup. If the fan is not working properly, it can cause the ice maker to not make ice or make ice intermittently.
To fix the issue, you may need to replace the ice maker fan. It's recommended to have a professional technician perform this repair to ensure it's done correctly.

If your refrigerator is not cooling, the problem could be as simple as a covered vent or something more complicated that requires the help of a service professional.


Is your thermostat set incorrectly? It's possible to accidentally bump the thermostat, so check it and reset, if necessary, to the proper coolness.

Check for a damaged cord or unplugged refrigerator, then check your electrical panel to make sure fuses aren't blown or the breaker has been tripped.

Is your refrigerator crammed with items or are air vents covered? Overfilling, especially near vents, can prevent cool air from flowing around items. Reduce the amount of food and drink inside your refrigerator, and be sure to leave vents clear.

Are your door gaskets damaged or worn, allowing cool air to escape? Try this test of your gaskets: Place a piece of paper or a dollar bill between the closed door and the refrigerator frame. If you can pull it out easily while the door is closed, it's time to replace the seals.

If there's ice on the evaporator cover ( typically found on the back wall of the freezer), it's a sign that the evaporator coils inside could also be covered in ice and frost, indicating a defrost problem. Try unplugging the fridge and defrosting it before calling for help.

Is the compressor (the football-sized case on the outside back of the refrigerator) making a continuous hum or other noise? A constant noise could indicate a serious problem with one or more components. This is a repair that should be left to a refrigerator service expert.

If you hear a clicking noise every few minutes, this means your condenser is trying to work but can't. To see if a dirty condenser is to blame, check the condenser coils. These are usually found on the back or the underside of the refrigerator. If they are dirty, clean them. For instructions, see How to clean refrigerator coils and fan.

If your condenser coils are clean, the problem could be the start relay, which triggers the compressor. Have a refrigerator repair pro determine if the start relay is the culprit and to replace it if necessary.

One answer may be that the coils are covered with dust. You may need to vacuum them. They are usually located underneath. The other problem with this particular model is that sometimes the doors dont close all the way, but they stay very slightly open. You will know that is the case if you get ice buildup under the inside cover.

If the power is on and your refrigerator is still not cooling, the problem could be as simple as a covered vent or something more complicated that requires the help of a service professional.

many times when a unit has a defrost problem the coils freeze up and do not allow the fresh food side to cool properly...check for a build up of ice on the inside back wall of the freezer compartment. if there is a build up of ice, you have a defrost problem. Also, check to make sure the evaporator fan in the freezer is blowing the air into the fresh food side.
