How we diagnose it
Our Silverfields technicians don't guess — we test. We read any displayed LG error code against the LG service manual, measure sensor resistance and supply voltages, and confirm the named circuit on your Side-by-Side before recommending a repair. For component-level work we isolate the part and verify it independently of the rest of the system.
The repair, done right
Compressor work is sealed-system surgery. Our Silverfields team recovers refrigerant, replaces the compressor with an LG-spec equivalent, replaces the filter drier, pressure-tests, vacuums to <500 micron and recharges by weighed charge. Every job is leak-checked and performance-verified.
