LG Dryer D95 Error Code

Critical vent blockage about 95%

What this error means

D95 is the most severe Flow Sense code—about 95% exhaust restriction. LG treats this as an immediate safety alert. The dryer may refuse heat or shut down mid-cycle until airflow is restored.

Common causes

  • Completely clogged wall duct with no exterior airflow
  • Disconnected vent hose blowing lint into the wall cavity
  • Snow or ice blocking a roof vent termination in winter
  • Failed blower wheel still turning but unable to move air past a solid clog

Step-by-step fixes

  1. 1Stop running heated cycles until the vent path is verified open end-to-end
  2. 2Disconnect the rear hose and run blower-only—strong air at the back confirms the clog is in the house duct
  3. 3Hire a certified vent cleaner for roof or long horizontal runs you cannot reach
  4. 4After cleaning, run an empty timed cycle and confirm D95 does not reappear in the first five minutes

When to call a technician

If D95 shows with the vent hose fully disconnected, the internal blower housing or duct inside the cabinet needs service.
