Appliance Fault Codes

What that error code means — and what you can safely check

LG oven error codes

LG ovens display an F-code when a sensor or the electronics detect a problem. Find your code below for the meaning and safe checks.

LG oven error codes
CodeMeaningSeverityFirst action
F11Probe / sensor errorEngineer usually neededThe oven temperature probe is open or shorted, so heating is blocked until the fault clears.
F19Control board / EEPROM faultOften fixable at homeThe control board has an internal memory or electronics fault — usually after a power surge.
F21Door lock errorOften fixable at homeThe door lock did not engage when a program was started, so the oven will not begin.

Safety first

Unplug before any check. Never open panels beyond the filter flap. Anything involving internal wiring, the heater or gas must go to a professional — see each code page for its "call a professional when" line.
