4901JK1001B - LG Refrigerator Damper

The Damper (4901JK1001B) is an original equipment manufacturer (OEM) part produced by LG for its range of refrigerators. This part is compatible with various LG refrigerator models. It's also sometimes referred to as a 'refrigerator air damper'.

The function of this damper is to control the flow of cold air from the freezer compartment to the fridge compartment. It does this via a motorized flap or door that opens and closes according to the temperature settings you've selected on your appliance. When your fridge needs cooling, the motor activates the damper, allowing cold air to circulate from the freezer section into the fridge. Conversely, when the desired temperature is reached, the damper closes, preventing an excess of cold air and maintaining a consistent temperature within your fridge.

Signs that this part may need replacing include inconsistent temperatures, the fridge being too warm or too cold, or unusual noises from the damper area. If these symptoms are present, it may be time to consider replacing your damper (4901JK1001B).

Before purchasing, we advise you to verify your device's model number to ensure compatibility with the Damper (4901JK1001B).
