Back flush the Drain hose off the machine using a hose attached to a tap and taped up or you will get soaked. The inside coats with fluff and may be partially blocked.

Dryer won't work, Check Filter light is on

I had exactly the same problem with my newish LG dryer. I deduced that the dryer's computer essentially needed to be rebooted. I pulled the plug for a minute or so, then plugged it back in. It works perfectly now.

Where do I find screws to lift top of LG model DLE1101W to repair baffles?

Not one of the easier ones to get at the baffles. In the back remove the two hinge screws holding the plastic top down. Take your hands and push back on the top panel about center and it will slide back. Sometimes it takes some force. Remove that top panel and set it aside. Remove the two screws on the left and right of the control board and the screw holding the control board down. Move the control board and harness off to the right. Now lift up on the back a little and push the whole top forward as it is has locking tabs in the front. Don't break them. Now you can hang the top over the side with the control and harness off to the left of the dryer. If looking from the back it would be the right side. The heat shield is now exposed. It has two plastic strips each with one screw securing it. Remove those screws and push each strip back to release them. They are tabbed and lock into the frame. Sometimes you have to pop them back to release them. Now you can remove the heat shield and the baffles are exposed.

LG 55LF6100 TV won't start up

Make sure that the TV's power cord is fully connected to the back of the TV.If the TV turns on and off while using the POWER button on the TV if the TV is not responding at all to the POWER button on the remote control then troubleshoot the remote control. Unplug the TV power cord mains lead from the electrical outlet for about 30 seconds.It could be also that the power supply has gone bad and needs to be replaced or the fuses is bad or your TV has died on you.

Dryer won't turn off.

Is it a mechanical timer you turn (the "clickety-clank"-kind) to set the time? Sounds like something in it has been worn out. Shouldn't be too hart to get a replacement for it,t and you should also probably be able to replace it yourself unless you're very "un-handy", or want to play it safe.

This is not the first time in the last year but my dryer vent is clean and my duct is new and unrestricted but it will run for 5 seconds and stop and after a few minutes it will start again and run for a few more seconds and repeat the sequence for the rest of the time on the timer. Thin IQ app doent work because there's no code .The last time this happened it took about two weeks to "Fix its self" I have took the dryer apart and cleaned every part ! Next dryer WILL NOT be a LG .Ive tied all the reset,unplug ,holding button for amount of time .....Nothing has worked

Try running it with the hose off at the rear. The condition you are describing are indicative of overheating. The High Limit Thermostat is cutting in and out as designed. There is also a Thermal Fuse, and when that gives out, it doesn't reset and will need to be replaced.

What is the problem that is causing my lg washer and dryer to overheat after 1:30 of drying?

in order: 1. Plugged vent system 2. Clothing(ie. sock)stuck between lint filter And fan. 3. Lint in heating element(electric dryer) I would start by Comparing air flow from vent exit to air flow from back of dryer after pulling dryer forward, removing vent hose and see if you have strong air flow from back of dryer. If air flow is different, then blocked vent system.

We have a LG dryer model DLEX5170V. When I push the start button, the dryer only stays on for about 2 seconds. If I manually hold down the push button it will stay on and work fine. I used duct tape to hold the button down and it stayed on for the needed time. What part would I need to repair this failure? How easy is it to fix?

sounds like u need to replace the on / off switch the start switch is defective see pics

Lg model DLGY1202W Dryer. When I try to start a cycle, I hear a slight click in the back of the dryer and nothing happens. I've tried unplugging it for a couple of minutes and nothing changes.

there are 3 things i find on lg dryers that can cause that. one, main control board would be worse case relay on ctrl board may be stuck causing clicking noise. 2nd, you could have a broken/slipped off belt. test for that would be turning the drum by the fins inside drum without any clothes. It should have a little bit of force to turn. if it spins rather easy. you probably have a broken belt. 3rd lastly, there is a re settable thermostat inside dryer if it pops is cause the dryer not to run.

DLE9577SM Power issues. Control board?

SOUNDS LIKE A BAD MOTOR CENTRIFUGAL SWITCH. USUALLY WILL RUN ONE LOAD AND THEN TURN OFF AND A HOUR HOUR LATER IT WILL WORK AGAIN UNTIL IT OVER HEATS AGAI.N ALSO CHECK FOR BROKEN OR SHORTED HEATING ELEMENT DRYER OVERHEATING: Heating Element A defective heating element can make a dryer too hot or not heat at all. . If the element partially shorts out, it can produce heat all the time, regardless of whether the dryer is calling for heat. Remove the heating element to inspect it. The coils should not be touching each other or anything else. Other Causes and Conditions Air Flow Problem Dryers need good ventilation to work properly. If the vent is clogged it can make the dryer too hot. Clean all of the vent tubing thoroughly. Cycling Thermostat Although not common, a defective cycling thermostat can make the dryer too hot. The cycling thermostat is supposed to turn on and off the heat to maintain the proper temperature. If the thermostat is defective it may keep the heat on too long. The thermostat is not adjustable or repairable, it must be replaced. HI LIMIT THERMOSTAT DEFECTIVE? SHOULD SHOW OHMS AT ROOM TEMPERATURE Felt Seal Most dryers have a felt seal at the front and rear of the drum to keep the heat inside the drum. If the felt seal is worn away or missing, the dryer may keep heating and make the dryer too hot. This is not common. Blower Wheel A defective blower wheel will not spin properly and will not vent the hot air, making the dryer too hot. Check to see if there is adequate airflow out of the dryer. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3m5NZvY9V5Q GOD IS still GOOD !!!!
