First checks for LG dishwasher codes
- Record the complete code and any flashing tap, drain, or warning icon.
- Check for visible water, a blocked filter, a kinked hose, and a fully open supply valve.
- Keep power and water off when a leak, burning smell, or breaker trip is present.
Why the exact display matters
A letter can resemble a number on a segmented display, and spaces or separators can change the diagnosis. Photograph the display before clearing it, note when it appears, and compare the complete model identifier with official LG support.
