4681A20003C Genuine AC Motor Assembly for LG Air Conditioners, Alternating Current Fan Motor Replacement

Part 4681A20003C is a genuine LG AC motor assembly, with AC referring to an alternating current motor in LG's naming. It sits with our LG air conditioner motors, but LG's short description doesn't say where in the unit it's fitted, and models aren't on file. Check the code on your old motor, or send us the model numbers from the indoor and outdoor units, before ordering 4681A20003C.

Symptoms of a failed air conditioner motor

Air conditioners rely on motors to move air over the coils. When one fails, the effect depends on its position. An indoor fan fault leaves the room without airflow even though the outdoor unit runs, while an outdoor fault leads to high pressure trips and poor performance. AC motors often fail through worn bearings, a burnt winding or a weak capacitor. Listen for humming without movement, squealing or grinding, and watch for a fan that's slow to start or stops after warming up.

Part details

• Genuine LG part 4681A20003C
• AC (alternating current) motor assembly
• Filed with LG air conditioner motors
• Indoor or outdoor position not stated

Getting the motor fitted

Turn the air conditioner off at the circuit breaker and leave it to discharge before any panels come off. Because the motor connects to mains wiring inside a hard-wired unit, a licensed technician or electrician should install it. Check the capacitor at the same time if your unit has one, and confirm the replacement spins freely and quietly once it's running.
