You may have to take a look at the frost pattern on the Freezer Evaporator
to see if it's air-clogged ...

all apears to be normal here. The door to the duct assembly appears to be stuck closed. I was able to open the door with very little force. What would cause this - do i need to replace the duct assembly or could this be electronic? thanks again for the help.

I can't find the service manual for that model, but it may be similar to another model.
It looks like there may be a "Test Switch" on the Main Board, between the small copper coil and the 40 pin chip.
Pressing it once may open the Damper.
Pressing it twice may close the Damper.

Post the SERIAL NUMBER.
This will be a *huge* help to identify fault (and at least help rule-out other possible causes).
This will be a *huge* help to identify fault (and at least help rule-out other possible causes).
To eliminate:
Musty odor
L-O-N-G cycle times
Dingy/yellowing whites
Suds error message
Slow spin speeds
Intermittent water leaks (from rear of washer)
And other annoying symptoms which vary brand-to brand.
Read below:
The *correct* amount of HE (High Efficiency) detergent that should be used in any front load or agitatorless top load washer with tub sizes 3.0 cu ft and larger is as follows:
HE: (2) Tablespoons Per Wash Load
HE 2X: (1) Tablespoon
HE 3X: (1) Teaspoon
Perform a TUB CLEAN CYCLE every (4) months.
Use: "Tide Washing Machine Cleaner"

there is a test button located on the circuit board. im not sure in what order it tests each funtion, but it does appear to force it to perform each funtion. can you tell me which one I should be looking for. After you press the button, it will beep so many time and repeat this pattern 3 times. And again thanks for the help

Replace the MAIN BOARD.
On the LG refrigerator model: LSC27910TT with serial numbers ranging from:
804MR--through--806MR
The original MAIN BOARD p/n: 6871JB1410M should be replaced with a new
MAIN BOARD p/n: 6871JB1410N.
In addition---both TEMPERATURE SENSORS (THERMISTORS) should be "pulled" from their original installed position and attached to the sensor cover. An adjustment of about 1/4 inch. This allows the TEMPERATURE SENSORS (one each for the refrig & freezer compartments) to be more accurate in measuring temperature.
Some TEMPERATURE SENSORS were too far imbedded within the insulation material used for the entire refrigerator box/cabinet during manufacturing.
Simply snapping the sensor cage-like covers off---and gently pulling the TEMPERATURE SENSORS out from the cured foam-type insulation will allow for more accurate temperature feedback to the MAIN BOARD (also revised).
