LG Washer dHE Error Code

On LG front-load washers and washer-dryer combos, dHE is a dry function error. On a combo, it means the drying fan motor is not working properly.

Reset and test

The manual calls dHE a temporary dry function error. Power down and unplug the washer, let it rest for 10 seconds, restore power, switch it on and restart the wash cycle. The washer-dryer combo guide suggests waiting about 5 minutes after unplugging, then running a dry cycle by itself to see whether the code reappears.

If dHE comes back

Close the water tap and unplug the washer; the unit will need a repair service. Wash and spin cycles may still start, but a cycle may not finish properly when the trouble is in the drying system, so the manual recommends not using the washer until it has been inspected.

Safety

The drying fan motor and nearby components may carry high voltage or stay hot after use. Do not take them apart or modify them yourself.

Do not confuse it with door codes

The dE, dE1 and dE2 codes are door errors. dHE belongs to the drying system. See dE2 for a closed door that is not locked, or dL for a door latch problem.
