LG Older LG models with LED indicators fault codes
Report faults by which internal LEDs light rather than by a code. LG document the patterns in images only, so the mapping cannot honestly be reproduced as text — their own help library page is the place to compare.
Codes on the Older LG models with LED indicators follow the same LG scheme as the rest of the range. Where a code behaves differently on this generation, the code page says so.

- OFFShop mode. LG publish how it gets switched on by accident at home, and give two ways out — including a ten second power cycle that does work on LG.Get it checked
- FFFreezer fan. LG’s master list says request service, but their own dedicated article gives owner steps, and the usual cause is frost around the motor.Get it checked
- dHThe defrost cycle ran and the temperature did not rise. LG give the exact test it failed, and their own per-code articles give a reset and a long manual defrost before the service call.Get it checked
- Beeping with the door closedLG publish seven causes and a door switch test you can do with a finger. The fridge thinks a door is open, and usually something is holding it.Usually simple to fix
- FUThe freezer did not get cold enough in the time allowed. LG give real owner steps for this one, including a paper test for the door seals.Get it checked
- CHLG’s master list calls this a refrigerant leak. Their per-code article is more careful: a cooling-power inspection code that can be temporary in use, with a five minute reset before the service call.Get it checked
- LoNot a fault. LG classify this as a warning that the room is below minus ten degrees, which is why garage fridges misbehave in winter.Usually simple to fix
- gFThe water flow sensor. LG break their own request-service rule here too, and all three of their named causes are outside the appliance.Get it checked
