What is true of this model and changes how you fix it
- Hardware — LG product page30 cu ft (29.5 usable), InstaView Door-in-Door (knock twice to see inside without opening), Craft Ice (3 slow-melting ice spheres/day), Full-Convert 5-temperature drawer, Linear Compressor, Wi-Fi.
- Type — InstaView French doorA French-door fridge with InstaView (a glass door panel that lights up when you knock twice, so you see inside without opening it). If the panel does not light, it is the knock sensor/setting, separate from cooling.
- Ice — dual makers incl. Craft IceTWO ice makers: a normal one in the door AND a Craft Ice maker in the freezer that makes slow-melting round balls. Craft Ice makes only a few spheres a day by design — 'not enough Craft Ice' is usually that expected slow rate, not a fault. Ice/water faults otherwise trace to the water line, filter and freezer temperature.
- Cooling — Linear CompressorLG's Linear Compressor (10-year warranty) runs continuously at variable speed rather than cycling on/off, so it is quieter and holds steadier temperatures — a faint continuous hum is normal, not a fault. Dual evaporators keep fridge and freezer air separate.
- InstaView Door-in-DoorA window you knock twice on to light the inside, over a door-in-door bin.
- Full-Convert drawerFive temperature settings.
- IceA dual ice maker with Craft Ice in a Slim SpacePlus system, plus a Tall Ice & Water Dispenser with measured fill.

Exact questions
Questions that only have an answer for the LG refrigerator
My LG LRMVS3006 Craft Ice maker barely makes any ice.+
That is expected — the Craft Ice maker produces only a small number of round ice balls per day (roughly three, more on some settings), because each sphere takes time to freeze solid. It is meant for a few cocktails, not bulk ice; the regular in-door ice maker handles everyday needs. If BOTH ice makers make nothing, then check the water line, filter and freezer temperature, which is a different problem.
