LG Dryer Lint Filter ADQ55998601

Genuine LG dryer lint filter. The filter traps lint and debris from the dryer's exhaust air. LG documentation identifies dimensions of approximately 274 x 160 x 55 mm (10.8 x 6.3 x 2.2 in); the Korean LG listing describes one filter measuring approximately 27.4 x 11.5 x 5.2 cm.

Is This the Right Part?

Common Symptoms

• Lint filter visibly clogged with lint or debris
• Reduced airflow through the lint-filter area
• Lint accumulating around the filter opening
• Filter does not sit correctly in its slot
• Drying performance decreases when the filter is heavily loaded

Check Before Replacing

• Remove the filter and visually inspect both mesh surfaces for lint buildup, tears, gaps, or deformation.
• Clean loose lint by rolling it off with your fingers or using a vacuum cleaner, as directed by LG.
• Inspect the filter opening and surrounding area for accumulated lint or debris.
• Reinstall the filter and confirm that it is fully inserted and seated in the intended position.
• If drying remains slow after the filter is clean and properly seated, consult the dryer's owner manual or qualified service personnel rather than assuming the filter is the sole cause.
