I love my LG combo unit and it saves me hours and hours! I've had it for five years.

The laundry seems to wash itself. I put it in dry-and-dirty and take it out dry-and-clean. It eliminates "wash day" because all you have to do is load it up before you go to bed or go to work and hang it up when you get home. And no more chapped hands from moving the wet laundry around!

I have a tip on the lint trap. (I am asusming by now that you checked your owner's manual and know how to empty it.) That lint trap seems to be the most common problem I've read about online. What I do is cut apiece of plastic mesh to 2.5 x 4.5 inches. (I find the plastic mesh that comes under some carry-out pizzas works best.) I roll it so that it fits into the lint trap as an additional filter. It will be open at the back just like the main filter. It catches ten times as much lint! And if you forget to check it, it will trigger your OE light sooner, so your water pump will last longer.

Is this a ventless dryer? I.e. a condensing dryer?
If so, there is a filter that filters the lint out of the water in the condensing unit. Check your owner's manual to find out how to service this. It is usually a little door on the front, bottom of the unit.
If it is not a ventless dryer, then the only filter I know is the lint screen.

Good Luck!

Can somebody help fix the problem I'm having with my Honeywell air purifier....when I press power button it won't work all I see is red light any button I press red it wont do anything....pls!!!!.....

I have the same unit.
Have you cleaned out the removable filters?
also the red light at the bottom indicates the time to clean the filters.
to reset it, use a paper clip. The red light on the bottom right is the filter indicator light, what looks like it should be a light beside that filter light, is actually a reset button, just poke it with a paper clip for a few seconds to reset. The bottom red light goes out

Red warning light miele vacuum

Before you g ponying up dough, check for clogs, debris in the cabin, and filter issues first: https://youtu.be/a8Qt8xEfqLw. This solved my issue for the price of a bent up coat hanger, and tons of gentle fidgeting and patience. No more red triangle !

Check to be sure your water source is on. Low pressure may make the filter sensor think there is a plugged filter.

Red light for HIPPA filter won't go off

Red light is sign of reduced suction due to a blokage of some sort. If you are sure the filter is thoroughly cleaned, check the hose, wand, and the nozzle connector for obstructions of any kind.

Red light won't go off

To RESET the Electronic Filter Check:
When the filter check light remains on,it is time to check/clean the HEPA-Type
filters and reset the filter check,if needed. With the unit powered on,insert the tip of a ball-point pen or
paperclip into the hole next to the LED filter check light and hold for approximately 5 seconds until the
light turns off (Fig 5). Depending upon your individual usage (environment and hours used),you may need
to check and clean the filters more or less frequently. If the HEPA-Type filters are cleaned before the filter
check light turns on,the filter check should be reset at the same time.
These cleaning intervals are intended as guidelines only. Performance of any filter media is dependent
upon the concentration of contaminates going through the system. High concentrations of contaminates
such as dust,pet dander and smoking will reduce the useful performance of the filter.
NOTE:The HEPA-Type filters are not washable.
