d80 LG dryer error d80 — vent blocked

What it means

If your LG dryer shows d80: the dryer exhaust is partly blocked; the number shows the blockage percentage.

Likely causes

Full lint filter, kinked or lint-clogged exhaust duct, closed wall outlet.

Safe steps you can try

Clean the lint filter after every load. Check and clean the exhaust duct and wall outlet, make sure the duct is not kinked.

When to call a technician

If the error remains after cleaning, the internal air duct and temperature sensors need checking.
