If your LG heating appliance  is not producing warm air during the preheat , here's a troubleshooting guide covering potential issues and solutions for various models:

  1. Check Power Supply:

    • Ensure that the appliance is properly plugged in and receiving power. Check the circuit breaker to ensure it's not tripped.
  2. Verify Settings:

    • Confirm that you have set the appliance to the correct heating mode and temperature. Refer to the user manual for specific instructions.
  3. Clean the Appliance:

    • Ensure that the appliance, especially the vents and filters, is clean and free of obstructions. Dust and debris can impact heating efficiency.
  4. Check for Error Codes:

    • Some LG models have digital displays that show error codes. Consult the user manual to decode any error messages and follow the recommended troubleshooting steps.
  5. Examine Electrical Connections:

    • Check all electrical connections to make sure they are secure. Loose or damaged wiring can prevent the appliance from heating properly.
  6. Check for Blockages:

    • Ensure that air vents and ducts are not blocked. Blockages can prevent proper airflow and heating.
  7. Reset the Appliance:

    • Sometimes, resetting the appliance can resolve issues. Turn off the power to the appliance, wait a few minutes, and then turn it back on.
  8. Contact LG Support:

    • If you’ve tried all the above steps and the issue persists, contact LG customer service for assistance.  Call an LG Support Representative on
