LG dryers are high-quality appliances with industry-leading safety features. The main safety feature they have is the ability to display specific error codes when something is wrong with the dryer or the ventilation system.
In this article, we will explain 3 of the most common error codes: D80, D90, and D95.
Let’s start by explaining what these error codes mean.

If your control panel is displaying D80, D90, or D95 error codes, this means that the airflow through your ventilation system has been obstructed by a buildup of lint. The higher the number after the “D,” the more obstructed it is. When these error codes appear, your dryer will turn off to avoid overheating.
Dealing with these error codes properly is very important, as one of the most common causes of house fires in the U.S. is overheating dryers.
When your LG dryer is displaying the D80 error code, this means that you have a ventilation blockage of 80%. This indicates that your air exhaust is not able to push enough air out from your dryer. The main cause of this problem is a buildup of lint in the exhaust hose or another part of the ventilation system.
Here’s how to resolve the D80 error code:
If your LG dryer is displaying the D90 error code, it means that your ventilation system is restricted by 90%. When this happens, your dryer’s airflow will not be strong enough to circulate the hot air out of your dryer and through your vent.

When the display panel on your LG dryer displays the D95 error code, it means that your ventilation system is restricted by 95%. When this happens, your dryer’s airflow will not be strong enough to circulate the hot air out of your dryer and through your vent.
