[LG Air Conditioner Power] I pressed the power button, but it is not turned on

Repair

Causes and Symptoms

  • No power supply to the air conditioner.
  • The product display shows an error code.

If you are unable to turn on the power using the button on the main body, then it might be an issue with the power supply.
If the power supply is properly connected, then the air conditioner will generate the power connection signal sound like ‘ringing’ or ‘beeping’.

Try this

Unplug the power cord of air conditioner and plug in other electronics such as s drier.

If other products operate ok, then inspect the air conditioner.

If your product is a model with the hidden power cord, check the dedicated circuit breaker for the air conditioner.

The dedicated circuit breaker for an air conditioner is near the shoe shelf on the front door of your house, and the circuit breaker is marked with Air Conditioner, or A/C.
Trip the circuit breaker, and then reset it.

If you must use a power strip, then make sure it is at least 16A-250V.

Press the forced operation switch for the wall mounted type product.
