LG Dishwasher Error Code F37 — Auto Open Door Error

Moderate Repair 15–30 minutes No tools needed

What this means

The F37 error code indicates the Auto Open Door feature failed to operate. Some LG dishwasher models automatically crack the door open at the end of a cycle to improve drying through natural air circulation. If the door mechanism is blocked by an object, the hinge is damaged, or the motor that opens the door has failed, F37 will appear.

Step-by-step fix

2 steps
1

Clear obstructions

Make sure nothing is blocking the dishwasher door from opening, such as a kitchen chair, rug, or cabinet handle in the door's path.

2

Power-cycle the dishwasher

Turn off and unplug for 1 minute, then restore power and run a cycle to see if the auto open works.

When to call a professional

If the auto door motor or mechanism has failed, professional service is needed to replace the auto door assembly.
