lg | air-conditioner Error Codes: Troubleshooting, Fixes & Prevention Tips explained below.
What Does the Lo Code Mean?❓
Lo is a status message that tells you the AC is running in a special operation mode. If it’s in Low Noise Mode, it reduces fan and compressor noise for quieter performance. If it’s in Test Mode, it might have been activated during installation or diagnostics. Lo is not a malfunction.
air-conditioner - What Triggers the Lo Code?

- Technician enabled Test Mode for diagnostics
- System automatically activated silent mode at night
- Outdoor unit operating at low capacity due to low demand
- Temporary override during installation or maintenance
