LG Air Conditioner CH67 error code

Difficulty: Medium · Cost: $0–$150 · Duration: 10–15m

The CH67 error means your LG air conditioner's outdoor unit fan is not working correctly. The outdoor fan expels heat collected from inside your home to the outside environment. When it cannot spin the unit stops running to prevent the compressor from overheating. This code may also appear as EF on some models. Debris, snow buildup, or a foreign object lodged in the outdoor fan are the most common causes and are easy to check yourself. If no obstruction is found the fan motor will need professional inspection.

Common causes

  • Debris, leaves, or a foreign object blocking the outdoor fan blades
  • Snow or ice buildup around or inside the outdoor unit blocking the fan
  • Outdoor fan motor has malfunctioned or failed
  • Wiring fault affecting the outdoor fan motor
