What Does the CL Error Code Mean?

The CL error code on an LG dishwasher indicates that the Child Lock feature is activated. This safety function is designed to prevent children from accidentally starting or stopping the dishwasher or changing its settings.

How to Deactivate the Child Lock on Your LG Dishwasher

If you’ve accidentally enabled the Child Lock feature, follow these simple steps to disable it:

  1. Locate the Child Lock Button: This may be a specific button labeled “Child Lock” or an icon resembling a padlock, depending on your model.
  2. Press and Hold the Button: Hold the Child Lock button for 3 to 5 seconds until the CL code disappears from the display.
  3. Test the Dishwasher: Start a new cycle to ensure that the Child Lock has been successfully deactivated.

What If the CL Code Remains?

If the CL error code persists after attempting to deactivate the Child Lock, try the following:

  • Reset the Dishwasher: Turn off the appliance, unplug it or switch off the circuit breaker for one minute, then turn it back on.
  • Consult the User Manual: Your dishwasher’s manual may offer model-specific troubleshooting tips.
  • Check Warranty Status: If your dishwasher is still under warranty, contact LG for potential repairs or replacements.
