How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Note: CL is not a fault but a feature. Disable it to restore normal operation.
- 1. Disable child lock:
- Press and hold the designated Child Lock buttons (often Temp + Option or similar) for 3–5 seconds until CL disappears. Refer to your LG manual for the exact combination.
- 2. Check for stuck buttons:
- If CL will not toggle, press each button firmly to ensure none are stuck.
- Wipe the control panel with a slightly damp cloth to remove residue.
- 3. UI board issues:
- If the lock indicator will not clear and buttons are unresponsive, the user interface PCB may be faulty and require replacement by a technician.
