LG microwaves show error codes when they detect issues with the magnetron, door switches, control board, or other components. This page lists all 221 LG microwave error codes with their meanings and troubleshooting steps. Important: never attempt to repair internal high-voltage microwave components yourself — always contact a qualified technician for internal repairs. Common issues include door switch failures, touchpad malfunctions, and thermal fuse problems.
Most Common LG Microwave Problems
Door or lid lock error – appliance
The appliance control system detected a condition indicating door or lid lock error – appliance cannot confirm door is securely locked.
Motor control error – the controller
The appliance control system detected a condition indicating motor control error – the controller cannot communicate with drive motor.
Overflow protection triggered – water
The appliance control system detected a condition indicating overflow protection triggered – water level exceeded safe limit.
Overflow protection triggered – water
The appliance control system detected a condition indicating overflow protection triggered – water level exceeded safe limit.
Motor control error – the controller

LG Microwave Maintenance Tips
- 1Clean the interior after each use to prevent food buildup
- 2Inspect the door seal and latch regularly
- 3Never run the microwave empty — it can damage the magnetron
- 4Clean the waveguide cover (mica plate) if food splatters on it
- 5Use microwave-safe containers only
- 6Ensure proper ventilation around the unit
