Lg Dryer Error Codes

All Lg dryer error codes with step-by-step troubleshooting, multimeter specs, and OEM part numbers.

18 error codes

CodeMeaning
9A5The dryer's control system detected an abnormal power supply condition. This code is most common on gas models, where the dryer runs on a standard 120V household circuit. An incorrect voltage, wiring fault, or failed control board can all trigger 9A5.
highadvanced
CLCL is a maintenance reminder, not a fault code. It indicates that the lint filter needs to be cleaned. The dryer continues to function normally and CL does not indicate any component failure.
lowbeginner
D80LG's Flow Sense system detected airflow restriction at 80% of the maximum blockage threshold. The dryer will still run and heat, but performance degrades and the system is warning you before it escalates to D90 or D95.
highbeginner
D90LG's Flow Sense system detected that airflow restriction has reached 90% of the maximum blockage threshold. The dryer actively reduces heat output to prevent overheating. Drying performance drops significantly at this level.
criticalbeginner
D95Exhaust airflow restriction has reached 95% of the maximum blockage threshold. The dryer has shut off the heating element entirely and will only tumble without heat. This is the most severe Flow Sense warning. Lint accumulation at this level is a fire hazard.
