When to Call a Technician

Any persistent LG error code should be diagnosed — codes that come back after a power reset indicate a real component failure that won't clear on its own.

Frequently Asked Questions

Should I just reset the fridge to clear the code?

A power reset clears transient codes. If the code returns within a cycle, a component has genuinely failed and needs diagnosis — resetting repeatedly won't fix it.

What does Er CO mean on my LG fridge?

Er CO indicates a communication fault between the main PCB and the inverter board. We test the inverter output and harness to confirm whether the board, the compressor or the wiring is at fault.
