What CH10, CH67, E6, EF means
These codes appear on LG air conditioners that show CH codes. CH10 and E6 point to the indoor unit fan, and CH67 and EF point to the outdoor unit fan. Debris such as snow or leaves, the fan motor, wiring, or the control board can all produce them. The owner sees the code, airflow is weak or absent, and the unit may shut itself down to protect the fan system.
Common causes of CH10, CH67, E6, EF
- Debris stuck in or around the fan
- Fan motor not turning freely
- Fan wiring or connector
- Control board fan output
1. Switch the unit off and unplug it or turn the breaker off. 2. Remove visible debris such as leaves or snow from the outside of the fan area, without reaching into the unit. 3. Wait five minutes, restore power, and restart. 4. If the code returns, keep the unit off.
- A reset cannot tell us whether the motor or the board drives the fan, so we test the fan with power applied.
- We check how freely the fan turns before looking at wiring.
- We tell you what we find and quote it in writing.

What is the difference between CH10 and CH67?
CH10 and E6 relate to the indoor fan, while CH67 and EF relate to the outdoor fan. The code tells us which end of the system to test first.
Can leaves really cause this code?
Yes. Snow, leaves, or other debris can block or slow the fan, and the unit reports it. Clearing what you can see sometimes ends it.
Is it safe to run the unit with this code?
Do not keep running it if the code returns. A fan that does not turn can let the unit overheat, so leave it off until it is checked.
Still seeing CH10, CH67, E6, EF?
A technician diagnoses it on site and gives you the price in writing before any work starts.
