showing HS

HS on the Signature dryer is a humidity sensor failure; that sensor is how the dryer decides a load is dry.

Before you book,
in this order.

Each step comes from LG SIGNATURE's own guidance for HS on its dryers. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit.

01

Switch the dryer off.

02

Book a visit; the Signature manual gives no owner remedy for HS.

Still there?

It usually turns into controls and sensors. Book with the code and the model number.

What not to do

HS is not a vent or heat problem. Heat and airflow can be fine while the dryer cannot judge dryness.

What you may
notice with it.

The dryer problems HS tends to arrive with. Answer these at the dryer before anyone is booked.

Questions
about HS.

Can I clear HS myself?
Switch the dryer off. If it comes back, it needs a visit.
Why does the Signature manual not tell me to clean the sensor for HS?
Its code table simply lists HS as a humidity sensor failure and says to turn the dryer off and call for service. A technician checks the sensor strips and their wiring during the visit.
Can HS show up during the Signature installation test?
Yes, HS is one of the codes the manual tells you to look for during the installation duct check. If it appears then, the dryer should be serviced before regular use.

Back to your everyday

Still showing HS?

Book with the code exactly as displayed, the whole model number, and whether you smell burning or gas — for a code, that is where the diagnosis starts.
