Fridge runs constantly but stays warm inside

LG's Linear Compressor is prized for being quiet and efficient, but it's also the priciest single part to replace. Before assuming the worst, a blocked evaporator fan or coils caked in dust cause the identical warm-fridge complaint far more often.

Er FF or Er dh on the display

Er FF flags a fan problem, usually the evaporator fan seizing or getting choked with ice. Er dh points to the defrost heater giving out, which lets frost take over the back wall of the freezer.

Ice maker jams overnight

The slim in-door ice makers LG favours rely on an auger to push cubes into the bin, and it stalls easily once ice starts clumping instead of dropping free, especially during warmer, more humid stretches.

Water pooling under the crisper drawers

Nearly every LG fridge leak traces back to a frozen or blocked defrost drain, usually triggered by a door left slightly open longer than anyone noticed.

OE error, won't drain

This is LG's drain code, and it almost always comes back to the small mesh filter behind the access panel at the bottom front, which quietly collects coins, lint, and the odd stray button until flow stops altogether.

UE error or heavy shaking during spin

UE is LG's unbalanced load code, but a genuinely uneven wash isn't always to blame, worn suspension components or a foot that's lost contact with the floor trigger it just as often.

Dryer runs but barely dries anything

A lint-choked exhaust duct is the usual suspect, and a common one, since LG dryers move a serious volume of air and even a partial blockage stretches drying time noticeably.

d90 or d80 code on the dryer display

Both codes mean the sensor has picked up on restricted airflow through the exhaust path, and it's rarely anything mechanical inside the dryer itself.

IE error, won't fill with water

LG dishwashers throw this when the float switch isn't registering water properly, and sometimes that's as simple as the float cup getting stuck under a stray utensil that fell the wrong way.

OE error, standing water after the cycle

A clogged filter basket or a pinched drain hose under the sink are the two likeliest reasons, and LG's filter fills up faster than average with heavy food debris if it's skipped for a few months.

Dishes still dirty after a full cycle

The spray arm jets clog gradually with mineral scale, especially in harder water areas, and once enough are blocked the water pressure across the rack just isn't what it used to be.

AE error, leak detected

LG's base pan has a leak sensor that halts the cycle the instant it senses moisture, which protects the floor but also means even a minor drip anywhere in the system stops everything.

Burner won't ignite

LG gas ranges use an electronic igniter behind each burner, and food residue or a bit of moisture around the electrode is the single most common reason it stops sparking reliably.

SmoothTouch controls stop responding

LG's capacitive touch panels on electric ranges can go unresponsive from a thin film of moisture, a small spill, or general wear once a unit's had a few years of daily use.

Oven won't reach the set temperature

A failing bake element is the most likely cause on electric LG ovens, though on ProBake Convection models a struggling fan motor can produce a similar underheated result.

Uneven baking on convection settings

ProBake Convection relies on the rear fan circulating air evenly, and a fan running weak or intermittently causes exactly the patchy, one-side-done results people usually blame on their own baking.
