Unplugging the fridge resets the display but the error returns after a couple of hours. Also it appears the in-door ice maker is not making ice and is leaking water.

Before any parts are replaced, I recommend to remove the fan cover and verify no frost build-up is interfering with the fan operation. If there is frost present, clear any frost with a hair dryer and reassemble. Turn on the ice maker and see if the fan blows air into the ice room. If not, the fan has failed.

The err 1f message was gone for 30 min and turned back on. It was very sad moment. Now it is time to have a technician out. They usu charge $100 for diagnostic I recommend buying extended warranty on any LG appliances. Lg technician will b here soon. He said the fan Motor and ice maker will be replaced. I will post more info as I know more in three days.
