What It
actually means.
LG uses It for a defect in the icemaker itself, rather than its fan or sensor. The ice maker usually stops filling or harvesting, and LG gives no owner steps, so the assembly needs to be tested and often replaced.

What to do when It shows on the ice makerKind of codeIce making and harvest
The ice maker froze a batch and could not release it, or the harvest never started: the ejector arm or the twisting tray stalled, the mold heater did not loosen the cubes, or the arm that senses a full bin reported the wrong thing. Ice jammed against the arm and a bin pushed in crooked are cleared first; a motor module or a whole ice maker assembly comes after.
Usually leads toIce maker assembly replacement
A new ice maker module fitted in the freezer compartment or the door compartment, after the water, the temperature and the bin sensor have been proved good, so the new part is not blamed for an old problem.
Shows up asNo Ice Coming From the Ice Maker
The mold sits empty or holds one frozen batch that never drops, the bin stays bare for days, and the dispenser gives water as usual: an ice maker not making ice while the rest of the appliance carries on normally.

Before you book,
in this order.
Each step comes from LG's own guidance for It on its ice makers. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit.
Check the ice maker's on/off setting to rule out a switched-off ice maker.
Unplug the unit for a minute and plug it back in to see whether It clears.
If It returns, book a visit; the ice maker assembly needs testing.
Still there?
It usually turns into ice maker assembly replacement. Book with the code and the model number.
What not to do
It is not about the ice maker fan (IF) or its sensor (IS). It also does not mean the rest of the cabinet has stopped cooling.

LG ice maker repair
Door ice maker
The ice maker that feeds the dispenser on the outside of a door: tucked into an insulated box in the left door of a French door model, or at the top of the freezer side of a side-by-side, with a chute and an auger carrying cubes to your glass.
Freezer ice maker
The ice maker that sits inside the freezer compartment itself, a tray that twists or a mold with a heater and an ejector, dropping cubes into a bin or drawer you open by hand, with no dispenser on the door.
In LG's own words
An It error code indicates a defect in the icemaker.
Every code on this site is taken from the manufacturer's documentation, never from a forum or a parts listing. LG models with a door or freezer ice maker.

Still showing It?
Book with the code or the blink pattern written exactly as the ice maker shows it, the full model number, and whether there is any water on the floor — when there is a code, that is where the diagnosis starts.
