LG dryer error code

LG dryer code nP: No current at the heater

LG electric dryers

What nP means

The dryer isn't detecting current at the heater. LG says this usually points to the home's electrical supply.

Likely causes

  • Plug not fully seated
  • Half of a double breaker tripped
  • Outlet not supplying 240 V

Safe first checks

  1. Make sure the power cord is fully plugged into a grounded 240 V outlet that matches the dryer's rating plate.
  2. Turn the dryer's breaker off for at least 10 seconds and back on.

When to stop

If nP continues, have a licensed electrician check the outlet's voltage. If the outlet is fine, request dryer service.
