How do I fix error code E CL on my LG LL31H6530S?

1. undefined: Verify error using SVC App Step 1 to determine if sealed system or compressor issue. Check evaporator temperature. 2. undefined: Check PCB voltage outputs; if abnormal, replace PCB. 3. undefined: Measure pressures and equalization time after power off. If equalization takes more than 15 minutes, restriction is confirmed. 4. undefined: If equalization pressure is above 20 psi, compressor is defective. Replace compressor. 5. undefined: If equalization pressure is 20 psi or below, refrigerant has leaked. Begin with low-pressure side leak inspection (evaporator, suction pipe) using bubble test or leak detector. 6. undefined: If low-side leak found, replace leaking part plus compressor and drier (moisture contamination). 7. undefined: If no low-side leak found, inspect high-pressure side (condenser, drier, compressor discharge). 8. undefined: If high-side leak found, replace the part and drier. 9. undefined: If no leak found, install UV drier; inspect at next visit with UV light. 10. undefined: Error code clears automatically when freezer temperature reaches 14°F or below after repair.

How to Fix

1
Verify error using SVC App Step 1 to determine if sealed system or compressor issue. Check evaporator temperature.
2
Check PCB voltage outputs; if abnormal, replace PCB.
3
Measure pressures and equalization time after power off. If equalization takes more than 15 minutes, restriction is confirmed.
4
If equalization pressure is above 20 psi, compressor is defective. Replace compressor.
5
If equalization pressure is 20 psi or below, refrigerant has leaked. Begin with low-pressure side leak inspection (evaporator, suction pipe) using bubble test or leak detector.
6
If low-side leak found, replace leaking part plus compressor and drier (moisture contamination).
7
If no low-side leak found, inspect high-pressure side (condenser, drier, compressor discharge).
8
If high-side leak found, replace the part and drier.
9
If no leak found, install UV drier; inspect at next visit with UV light.
10
Error code clears automatically when freezer temperature reaches 14°F or below after repair.
