Lg AEH74176704 Upper Hinge Assembly Refrigerator Door

Product Description

The LG AEH74176704 is an OEM upper hinge assembly designed for LG side-by-side and French door refrigerators. The hinge assembly mounts at the top of the refrigerator door, providing structural support and allowing smooth door pivot action. This part maintains proper door alignment, which is critical for maintaining a consistent door seal and preventing cold-air loss. Proper hinge function also reduces wear on door gaskets. Appliance technicians and experienced DIY repair persons typically handle this replacement when the original hinge shows signs of bending, cracking, or failure that causes the door to sag or misalign.

This upper hinge assembly fits a range of LG side-by-side and French door refrigerator models commonly found in residential kitchens. Compatible model numbers include LSXS26326S, LSXS26336S, LSXC22396D, LSXS26386S, LSXS26366S, LSXS26386D, LSXC22486S, LSXS26396S, LSXC22396S, LSXC22486D, LSXS26336V, LSXS26336D, LSXC22386D, LSXC22426S, LSXC22436S, LSXC22336S, LSXS26366D, LSXS26326W, 51832, 51833, 51839, 51862, 51863, 51867, and 51869.

Installation Notes

Disconnect the refrigerator from electrical power before beginning hinge replacement. An appliance technician or qualified repair person should perform this service, as door removal may require a second person to support the door weight during hinge swap. Use basic hand tools and refer to the appliance service manual for the correct fastener sequence. After reinstallation, verify door alignment and confirm the gasket seats evenly around the full perimeter before restoring power.
