Error codeF36
ApplianceRange
Quick answer
LG lists F36 as a transistor error. The manual asks for a circuit breaker reset of 30 seconds.
Model compatibility: LG reuses codes across series and model years, so F36 may mean something different on another appliance or generation. Confirm this against your model’s documentation and record your full model number before acting.
Plain language
What this code means
F36 means a transistor error on LG ranges and ovens.
Where F36 applies
LG’s error list reads F36 as a transistor error, and the manual answer for it is brief. LG shows this code for both ranges and ovens; the generation is not specified.
What to do first
Resetting the breaker is what LG asks for. Wait 30 seconds between off and on.
A code that keeps returning, or a reset you cannot perform, means the unit has to be serviced.
Other LG range codes
For a front induction burner temperature sensor error, see F34.
F38 reports a main board and inverter communication error instead.
