LG Dryer TE1 Error Code – What It Means and How to Clear It

If you’re seeing a TE1 error on your LG dryer, don’t panic—it’s a common error related to temperature sensing, and there are a few simple steps you can take to troubleshoot the issue.

What Causes the TE1 Error?

The TE1 error is usually triggered by:

  • Loose or damaged wiring connected to the thermistor
  • A glitch in the control board

How to Start Troubleshooting

Here are a few safe steps to try:

  1. Unplug the dryer for 5 minutes to reset the electronics. This often clears minor glitches.
  2. Check your wiring if you're comfortable—look for any loose or corroded connections around the thermistor area.
