Do you have a question about the LHSXS2706 Series and is the answer not in the manual?
Questions and answers
Ice maker tries to dump the ice from the tray but gets stuck. Then makes a loud clicking noise .
The loud clicking noise and the icemaker getting stuck when trying to dump ice could be due to the icemaker tray being in a tilted position, which is a normal part of the ice-making cycle. However, if the tray is stuck or the noise is continuous, it may indicate a mechanical issue with the tray movement or an obstruction caused by malformed ice. Low water pressure or air in the water line could also cause irregularly shaped ice that jams the mechanism.

The icemaker isn't dispensing ice and I can't get the icebin out to clean it out
The icemaker on the LG LHSXS2706 Series may not be dispensing ice for the following reasons:
1. Obstructed shutoff arm or sensor: Make sure the shutoff arm moves freely or the electronic sensor has a clear path.
2. Ice bin is full or ice is stacked unevenly: Empty the bin or shake it to level the ice.
3. Blocked ice passage due to frost: Remove the frost by taking out the ice bin and clearing the passage with a rubber spatula.
4. Control panel settings: Switch between cubed and crushed ice modes to help dislodge stuck ice.
5. Refrigerator doors are open: Ensure all doors are fully closed.
6. Infrequent use: Use the dispenser regularly to avoid blockages.
To remove the ice bin for cleaning:
1. Lift the ice storage bin slightly.
2. Pull it out carefully.
3. Empty and wash the bin, then dry it completely before reinstalling.

2. One or more refrigerator doors may not be fully closed. The dispenser will not work if any door is open.
3. The ice has not been used frequently, which can cause clumping or jams.
4. Frost or blockage in the ice passage may be preventing ice from dispensing. Clear the passage using a rubber spatula and wipe the area with a damp cloth.
To remove the ice bin:
1. Slightly lift the ice storage bin.
2. Pull it out carefully.
