🔧 One Safe Check You Can Try
The unit will require a repair service, per LG's documentation; request a repair or use LG's chat support rather than attempting to access the compressor area yourself.
⚠ Why You Shouldn't Go Further Than That
- The compressor and its thermistor are sealed-system components similar to a small refrigeration unit - not a homeowner-accessible or homeowner-repairable part.
- A compressor that can't be temperature-monitored correctly risks running outside its safe operating range, which can shorten its life if used repeatedly while faulted.
Opening a panel to inspect or repair something yourself doesn't automatically cancel your manufacturer's warranty — but it can risk accidental damage, and some manufacturers do have specific service conditions. Check your product's warranty terms, or ask us, before deciding.
