LG air conditioner blinking red power light

All of a sudden a red light began flashing below the power button. The unit seems to be working fine but what does that mean?

This is not a split system a/c unit guys. Look at the picture. The blinking light means the air filter may need cleaning. Reset power to turn it off.

Try sutting off the power to both units. This may reset the unit. Check out the service manual at LG website www.lgusa.com. Go to their support page and put the model number in. Remove and replace the batteries in the remote. If there is a communication error, the inside unit will display 3 flashes. If all else fails, call LG at 1-800-243-0000. Good Luck!

3 flases indicates a communication error. Have a technician check wiring and connections.

Remove the front cover of the unit to expose the cooling coil. Put the unit on and observe if there will be formation of frost (ice) on the coil. If there's frost formation, the common cause is dirty cooling coil. Have it cleaned using an alkali base coil cleaner. If the coil is clean, then the problem is the fan motor. It might be turning slow due to copper loss. Have it replaced.

Well it needs to be fix by a professional, so if you or someone you know are good at tinkering go for it. It as a sensor problem at the evaporator.

Sounds like a 48 code. (There is no 84 to my knowledge).

Fujitsu airon ASTA24LCC 2 flashes green and red then 5 red flashes any idea what it means

Had similar problem (ie. 2 green & red flashed followed by 5 red flashes - Fan blowing but not cooling ... I also noted that the outside unit fan wasn't going). Tried restarting several time after waiting only a minute or two after turning the mains power off but with no change. So turned the unit off at the mains power and then fired it up about 2hrs later and it was all working fine.

It's exactly what the other guys are saying in the problem questions....the red light has suddenly for the 1st time in 2 years, began flashing constantly. Everything is plugged in, and seems to be working...

what red light are you refering to? have you tried running diags? try to run the on board diags first.
There are two methods to start the OBD:
  • Hold the Mute button while powering on the system
  • Choose "Diagnostics" from the F12 one time boot menu
