67 Moderate Easy DIY

LG Refrigerator 67 — Door open / not fully closed

LG Refrigerator · Error code 67

What 67 Means

The board detected the door open (or a gap large enough that the switch reads open) for longer than the alarm threshold — typically 5+ minutes. The code is a warning, not a sealed-system fault.

Symptoms

  • 67 on display
  • Door alarm beeping
  • Interior light may stay on
  • Higher than normal temperatures if persistent

Common Causes

1
Door physically ajar

Item on a shelf or in a bin blocks full close.

2
Worn/deformed gasket

Gasket no longer seats — gap stays open.

3
Failed door switch

Plunger switch stuck open or electrically failed.

4
Misaligned door / sagging hinge

Door drooped — gasket misses the cabinet.

5
Not leveled

Unit tilted forward causes doors to swing open.

How to Fix It

  1. Open and reclose each door firmly — confirm the alarm stops.
  2. Inspect for items blocking full close (gallon jugs, tall bottles, in-door bins).
  3. Inspect the gasket for tears or compression dents; warm it with a hair dryer to reshape if mildly deformed.
  4. Press each door switch by hand and listen — interior light should turn off.
  5. Use a level: tilt the unit slightly back via the front leveling feet so doors swing closed.
  6. If the switch is stuck or unresponsive, replace it.
