LG Dryer OE Error Code
What it means
LG groups drn/OE with a dryer drainage condition caused by a full water container, a kinked or pressed drain hose, or air in the drain pump.
Try this first
- Empty the dryer water container and reinstall it fully.
- Straighten any bends or kinks in the drain hose and make sure the hose is not installed too high or submerged.
- Keep the top of the drain hose no more than 1 meter above the floor.
- If residual water may be trapped, run the Air Dry cycle for 2 to 3 minutes, then turn the dryer off.
- If drn/OE remains with the container empty and the hose clear, request service.
Can I keep using it?Resume normal operation after the water container and drain path are clear and the code has cleared.
Repair usually required?Request service if drn/OE persists with the container empty and the hose unobstructed.
