What Does LG AC CO Error Mean?
The CO error code on your LG air conditioner indicates a communication fault between the indoor unit and the outdoor condenser unit. This usually happens when the signal wire is damaged, loose, or experiencing electrical interference, preventing the two units from 'talking' to each other.
How to Reset Your LG AC
- Locate the main power supply breaker for your air conditioner in your home's electrical panel.
- Switch the breaker to the 'OFF' position and wait for at least 3 to 5 minutes to allow the capacitors to discharge completely.
- Turn the circuit breaker back to the 'ON' position.
- Wait for the system to initialize for a few minutes and check if the CO error code has cleared from the display.
Safe Steps to Try Before Calling a Technician
- Inspect the outdoor unit for any visible signs of damage to the interconnecting wires caused by pests or debris.
- Ensure that the outdoor unit has adequate airflow and is not blocked by heavy vegetation or trash.
- Check if the power cable connecting the indoor and outdoor units is securely plugged in or if there are any loose terminal connections.
Always turn off the main power supply before inspecting any wiring. If you are not comfortable working with electrical components, do not attempt to open the unit casing to avoid the risk of electric shock.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I keep running my AC if the CO error is displayed?
No, it is not recommended. The CO error prevents the system from operating correctly, and continuing to run it may cause further damage to the internal control boards.
Does the CO error always mean the unit is broken?
Not necessarily. Sometimes a temporary power surge or a loose wire connection can trigger the code, which can be resolved by a simple power reset.
What should I do if the reset does not fix the CO error?
If the error persists after a hard reset, there is likely a fault in the communication cable or the PCB (Printed Circuit Board). You should contact a professional technician for a detailed diagnostic.
Are there specific weather conditions that cause this error?
Yes, heavy rain or extreme humidity can sometimes cause moisture to enter the outdoor terminal block, leading to communication errors.
