What to do if LG LW1817IVSM Air Conditioner does not start?
- P
  Parker Long IIIAug 15, 2025
  If your LG Air Conditioner isn't starting, here are a few things to check: * Ensure the air conditioner is fully plugged into the outlet. * Inspect the house fuse or circuit breaker box, replacing the fuse or resetting the breaker if necessary. * In case of a power failure, turn the mode control to off, and wait 3 minutes after power is restored before restarting the unit. This prevents the compressor from overloading. * If the current interrupter device has tripped, press the RESET button on the power cord plug. If the reset button doesn't stay engaged, stop using the air conditioner and contact a qualified technician.

Why is my LG LW1817IVSM not cooling as it should?
- M
  Michelle GarciaAug 18, 2025
  If your LG Air Conditioner isn't cooling properly, consider these potential causes: * Ensure that airflow isn't restricted by curtains, blinds, or furniture blocking the front of the unit. * Verify that the temperature control is set lower than the current room temperature. * A dirty air filter can impede cooling. Clean the filter at least every 2 weeks. * If the room was initially hot, allow sufficient time for the air conditioner to cool it down. * Check for open furnace flues or registers and cold air returns that may be allowing cold air to escape. * Inspect for iced-up cooling coils. If present, refer to the section on 'Air conditioner freezing up'.

  Alexander WilsonAug 21, 2025
  If your LG Air Conditioner is turning on and off rapidly, it could be due to a dirty air filter restricting airflow. Try cleaning the air filter. Also, extremely hot outside temperatures can cause this issue. Refer to the installation instructions or check with the installer for further assistance related to high outdoor temperatures.

How to fix LG Air Conditioner not connecting to Wi-Fi?
- A
  amanda23Aug 26, 2025
  If your LG Air Conditioner isn't connecting to Wi-Fi, the Wi-Fi router may be too far from the air conditioner. Try moving the router closer to the air conditioner, or consider purchasing and installing a Wi-Fi repeater (signal booster). Also, make sure you are selecting the correct wireless router from the list and that the router is set to 2.4 GHz, as incompatibility or lack of permission can cause connection problems.

How to fix LG LW1817IVSM Air Conditioner freezing up?
- C
  Chris LewisAug 28, 2025
  If your LG Air Conditioner is freezing up, it's likely due to iced-over cooling coils. Ice can block airflow, preventing the unit from cooling the room effectively. To resolve this, set the mode control to High Fan or High Cool.
