Before starting the repair and ordering parts, be aware that not all LG model dryers come with drum lights.

Drum Light. The drum is equipped with a light that illuminates when the appliance is turned on. The light automatically turns off when the dryer door is closed and the cycle starts. To turn on the light during a cycle, press and hold the Signal Button for 3 seconds. The drum light will turn on and then turn off automatically after 4 minutes.

Located on the upper left of the Door Cabinet side on the inside, held on with one screw.

Two styles that you may encounter

To Replace the Light Bulb, or Light Assembly:

• Unplug the dryer from its power source.

• Unscrew the single screw holding the lens in place.

• Slide the lens to the right to release it.

• Remove the old bulb and replace it with a new one.

• Reinstall the lens and secure it with the screw.

• Plug the unit back in and power it on to verify that the light is working.

If the lamp is not powering on

Remember the Lamp on most LG model dryers will NOT come on when the door is opened instead while powered on the internal Lamp will need to be turned on at the control panel.

When testing the Lamp circuit remember you will need to turn the lamp on at the control panel. At this time move to the main board (or the lamp itself) and check for 12Vdc.

“If voltage is detected at the Main PCB output, inspect the wiring harness, connectors, and bulb. If no voltage is detected from the Main PCB, the Main PCB or control board may be faulty.”
