LG Range (Electric) F7 error code

Difficulty: Hard · Cost: $80–$250 · Duration: 5m

The F7 error means your LG range detected a problem with the upper oven convection fan — the fan that circulates hot air evenly throughout the upper oven cavity during convection cooking. When it cannot operate correctly the oven stops the function to prevent uneven cooking or overheating. A reset clears it in some cases but if F7 keeps returning the convection fan motor will need to be inspected and replaced by a technician.

Common causes

Upper convection fan motor has malfunctioned or failed
Fan blade is obstructed by debris or a foreign object
Wiring connection to the convection fan motor is loose or damaged
Temporary electronic glitch causing a false fan error

How to fix it

1

Press the CLEAR/OFF key to clear the error and try the original function again
2

If F7 reappears turn off the circuit breaker for the range and wait 30 seconds
3

Turn the circuit breaker back on and check if the error has cleared
4

If F7 persists after resetting the upper convection fan motor needs inspection and replacement by a qualified technician
