Dryer ⚠ Safety Risk

LG d90 — Exhaust Duct 90% Blocked

What This Code Means

Severe duct blockage — 90% restriction detected by Flow-Sense. The dryer will continue to run but at risk of overheating, tripping the thermal fuse, and potentially causing a fire.

Common Causes

  • Heavy lint buildup over years without cleaning
  • Duct elbows packed with accumulated lint
  • Damaged duct allowing lint to escape and pack in the wall cavity

DIY Steps to Try First

  1. Stop the dryer immediately.
  2. Clean the lint trap.
  3. Inspect and clean the full duct run before restarting.
