CH 54 can appear after a power outage or electrical work. LG's support text points to reverse-phase detection, so this is electrical service territory if a breaker reset does not clear it.

Do not troubleshoot wiring yourself. Reset only at the normal breaker if you can do that safely.
Likely causes
- Temporary power outage
- Recent electrical work
- Reverse phase detected

Homeowner fix
Reset the air-conditioner breaker once if you can do that safely. If CH 54 appeared after electrical work, contact the electrical contractor or HVAC technician.
When to call a pro
Call a licensed HVAC technician or electrician if CH 54 repeats. Tell them LG identifies it as reverse-phase detection.
