Sensor flow light is on….what does that mean?
For model number DLE5955W
PartSelect logo
Hello Mary, thank you for your question. To fix the flow sense error on your LG dryer, check whether lint filter could be clogged with lint. If the dryer filter is clogged with lint, the appliance will detect some air blockage. To clean, pull the lint filter straight up and roll any lint off the filter with your fingers. Push the lint filter firmly back into place. We hope this helps.

Dryer is loud when in use. Are there belts that could cause this?
For model number DLE5955W
PartSelect logo
Hi John, thank you for reaching out. Based on our understanding, the issue could be with the dryer drum belt, part number PS11705916. It attaches to the motor pulley and spins the drum as the motor rotates. You may need to replace it to fix the issue. We hope this solves your problem!

I get an error message as soon as I turn it on. TE1
For model number DLE5955W
PartSelect logo
Hi Carolyn, thank you for the question. According to our research, the TE1 error code indicates a problem related to the thermistor. We would suggest checking the wire harness of the thermistor first. If it is fine, you may need to replace the high limit thermostat and thermistor kit, part number PS16878105. It monitors and helps regulate the dryer temperatures. We hope this solves your problem!

Is the door reversible?
For model number DLE5955W
PartSelect logo
Hi Ken, Thank you for reaching out. According to the Manual the door swing can be reverses. Please see page 12 of the manual. Open the dryer door. Using a Phillips screwdriver, remove the 2 screws that secure the door hinge to the dryer door opening. Remove the 4 screws from the latch side of the dryer door opening, and remove the door latch. Turn the door around so the hinge is reversed, and reattach the door using the 2 screws previously removed. Reinstall the door latch and the 4 screws. Test the door swing to make sure the door moves freely and latches securely. Thank you for the inquiry, good luck with the repair!

Dryer would run with no heat
I actually went to mr fix it on u tube. Great instruction on how to take dryer apart. First I unplugged the dryer. I found I could reach the heating system by removing the lint tube in the back of the dryer. I put my I phone with the light on inside the back of the dryer and tested the connections to see if all were working. The thermal fuse was not working. I removed the two wires , red on top and white on the bottom. Then used a small Phillips screwdriver to remove the two mounting screws and removed the fuse. I then used a vacuum to clear any lint from the back of the dryer and inside the dryer. This took me about an hour and a half. I did it this way because I did not want to disassemble the entire dryer to get to the components. I received the fuse in 3 days and tested it. It was fine. I then put it in the dryer screwed it in place, connected the wires. Replaced the lint tube. This took about 10 minutes. Dryer is running great.

Dryer not heating
I followed video instruction in disassembling and set screws from each section into diferent small bowls in the order they were removed. Hardest part was some of the screws were really hard to get loose without stripping them and my control panel did not match video but I figured it out. Replacing the parts were easy and putting it back together. While it was apart I cleaned everything including fan blower wheel. Thanks for the right parts and your online video. With your help and a prayer this 62 year old woman fixed the problem and dryer runs like new.
