What it means
CH 07 appears when connected LG indoor units are not set to compatible modes, such as one unit calling for heat while another calls for cooling or dry operation. The equipment is blocking operation because a shared system cannot heat and cool at the same time.
Urgency
informational
This is usually a settings conflict, not a hardware failure.
Likely causes
- One indoor unit set to heating while another is set to cooling
- One indoor unit set to heating while another is set to dehumidification
- Different rooms or paired units set to incompatible modes
Homeowner fix
Set every indoor unit on the same outdoor system to cooling, dry, or heating as a group. Fan-only and air-purification modes can be used without the same heat/cool conflict.
When to call a pro
Call for service only if CH 07 stays after all indoor units are set to the same mode and the system is power cycled once.
Repair vs replace
This is normally a mode-setting issue, not a repair-or-replace decision.
