Common LG Dryer Problems We Fix
Not Heating
An LG dryer that tumbles without producing heat is the most frequent fault we see. On vented and condenser models, this typically points to a blown thermal fuse, a failed heating element, or a faulty thermostat. On LG heat pump dryers, the issue may be a refrigerant leak, a failed compressor, or a dirty heat exchanger reducing efficiency. Our technicians test systematically to identify the exact fault. See our dryer not heating page for more.
Not Spinning
When your LG dryer hums but the drum doesn’t move, the drive belt has usually snapped or slipped off the pulleys. LG dryers use a flat multi-rib belt that wears thin over time. A failed idler pulley, a seized drum roller, or a faulty door switch can also prevent rotation. See our dryer not spinning guide.
Taking Too Long to Dry
LG dryers that run extended cycles without fully drying clothes usually have an airflow restriction — a clogged lint filter, blocked exhaust vent, or dirty condenser fins. On heat pump models, a clogged condenser is the most common culprit. LG recommends cleaning the condenser filter regularly, but many owners don’t realise this maintenance is required. See our dryer taking too long page.
Making Noise
LG dryers can develop squealing, grinding, or thumping noises from worn drum rollers, a deteriorated belt, a failing idler pulley, or foreign objects caught in the drum. Our technicians identify the noise source and replace worn components on-site. See our dryer making noise page for a full breakdown.
Error Codes
LG dryers display error codes including d80/d90/d95 (exhaust blockage), tE1/tE2 (thermistor fault), dE (door open), PS (power surge), and CL (child lock active). Our technicians go beyond the code to find the actual component failure. Some LG error codes can be misleading — a d80 code, for example, sometimes indicates an internal lint buildup rather than an external vent blockage.
Heat Pump Specific Faults
LG heat pump dryers use refrigerant-based heating rather than a traditional element. These dryers can develop compressor faults, refrigerant leaks, condenser blockages, and evaporator icing issues that require specialised diagnosis. Our technicians are experienced with heat pump dryer systems and can diagnose whether the fault is in the refrigerant circuit, the fan system, or the control electronics.
