Maintain cold, even temperatures in your LG LFXS26973S/10 with genuine OEM replacement parts from Repair Clinic. This is a 26 cubic foot French door refrigerator with a bottom freezer, an external ice and water dispenser, and a door-mounted ice compartment, and the /10 suffix identifies its production build. Parts replaced most often include the LFXS26973S/10 ice maker, the water inlet valve, the evaporator fan motor, and the door gasket. Confirm each part on the LFXS26973S/10 parts list, then browse all LG refrigerator parts.
Why the /10 Suffix Matters on the LFXS26973S/10
LG builds the same base model in several suffix versions. Most mechanical parts such as gaskets, bins, and fans are shared across adjacent suffixes, but control boards, ice maker assemblies, and some valves can change between builds, so order from the list for your exact LFXS26973S/10 rather than a similar model. The fresh food and freezer sections share one sealed system, so a warm fresh food section with a cold freezer usually points to airflow or defrost rather than the compressor. Sealed system service on this refrigerator requires a certified technician. The LFXS26973S/10 manual and LFXS26973S/10 diagram show part locations.

Most Replaced LFXS26973S/10 Refrigerator Parts
Ice Maker and Door Ice Compartment
If the ice maker stops, first confirm the water supply, the filter, and the freezer temperature. Frost or ice buildup around the door compartment seal can jam the ice maker or bucket, so check the seal and defrost the compartment before replacing parts. Replace the ice maker only when water reaches it and it still will not cycle.
Water Inlet Valve Testing
The LFXS26973S/10 water inlet valve at the rear feeds both the dispenser and the ice maker. Test each solenoid coil for continuity before replacing the ice maker; a single failed coil stops water to one outlet while the other works. Order the water inlet valve for this build.
Evaporator Fan Motor and Freezer Noise
The LFXS26973S/10 evaporator fan motor circulates freezer air and feeds the fresh food section. Clicking or grinding usually means ice is touching the blade from a defrost problem, so check the defrost system before replacing the fan. A silent fan during cooling calls for a new fan motor.
Door Gasket and Temperature Swings
Each French door and the freezer drawer has its own LFXS26973S/10 door gasket. Run the paper-drag test around each; a weak spot lets humid air in and causes frost and sweating. Replace the door gasket for the affected door.

LG LFXS26973S/10 Refrigerator FAQ
Why is my ice maker not working?
Check the water supply, filter, and freezer temperature, then look for ice buildup in the door compartment. If water still does not arrive, test the inlet valve coils before replacing the ice maker.
Can I use parts listed for other suffix versions of this model?
Gaskets, bins, and fans are often shared, but control boards, ice makers, and some valves can differ. Order from the list for your exact /10 build.
Why is the evaporator fan clicking or grinding?
Ice is usually touching the blade because of a defrost problem. Check the defrost heater, sensor, and drain before replacing the fan motor.
Why is the fresh food section warm while the freezer is cold?
Both sections share one sealed system, so this usually points to the evaporator fan, a blocked air passage, or a defrost fault rather than the compressor.
