Hi Hills659.
this is all i could find out.
What does CL mean on LG washing machine?
LG Washer CL Code Definition (What does it mean?) = The CL Code on front loading LG washing machines simply means the CHILD LOCK feature is turned ON.
The CHILD LOCK feature on your LG washer is meant as a safety precaution so children are not able to change wash settings. CL is not an error code. It is indicating that the CL or CHILD LOCK feature has been turned ON and is active.

SOURCE: CL on display panel - washing machine will not respond

CL stands for child lock to take it off press and hold TEMP and TIME DELAY at the same time and this should remove it

Why dont you people read the user's manual? You wil learn abt your machine, to a certain extent. Try "dry" & "spin" together for a few seconds. This is the child lock display.

Or press "end of cycle" for over 5 seconds. Works for other machines...............And please rate me if helped................

"CL" means Child Lock. Press and hold RINSE+ & PRE WASH Simultaneously for about 3 seconds to de-activate.

SOURCE: hi I have a lg

LG washing machines indicating error code CL may have the child lock activated.

Try holding down the temperature and eco/rapid options together to turn off child lock.

Some LG series use "TEMP and OPTION" at the same time.

Lg front loader m 80490 cl clear error

If you're experiencing an error on your LG front loader M80490CL washing machine, here are some steps you can try to clear the error:
  1. Power off the washing machine by unplugging it or turning off the circuit breaker that powers it.
  2. Wait for a few minutes to let the washing machine cool down.
  3. Press and hold the "Start/Pause" button for about five seconds.
  4. While still holding the "Start/Pause" button, turn on the washing machine by either plugging it back in or turning the circuit breaker back on.
  5. Release the "Start/Pause" button once the washing machine begins to beep and the display shows "CL" to indicate that the error has been cleared.
  6. If the error persists, refer to the troubleshooting section of the washing machine's user manual or contact LG customer support for further assistance.

My front loading LG washing machine is flushing the code CL and the dial will not respond and the machine will not start.

This is an easy fix. CL stands for Child lock. I believe it’s the prewash button on your machine. Hold the button in until the “CL” clears.
