What feed are you trying to use, have you tried a different feed yet?

I haven't gotten an error on my LT yet, but I'm going on a limb and guessing you're going past it's amp limit (only Lo error I've heard of, and only seen on my provari) on a re-coiled something, usually from a bad coil wrap/short. Check the coil, make sure +/- aren't touching anywhere.

Just a guess though, my LT is a V1 or something, and doesn't have warnings or fancy pants stuff like that :( It will let me burn whatever I put on it, no questions asked.

Sometimes over tightening an atty/carto with a protruding center post will force down the insulator on the mod causing a short. Try removing the atty, wiggle the center post on the mod up a bit, then gently reattach the atty. Before getting it snug, check to see if it fires. If it does, then the atty center post is protruding too far. If not, give it a quarter turn and repeat until it does. If the atty center post sticks out too far, just shove it in a bit gently. That should fix your problem. If not, you may have a break in your insulator which will require a bit of work to fix.

"Lo" means the resistance of the atty/carto is too "Low". Shorted, perhaps. Some LTs can display the resistance, and usually 1.2 ohm or less will cause the "Lo".

Recommend diagnosis: remove the atty and press the button, and see if the "Lo" continues. If removing the atty fixes the "Lo", then the atty is probably bad, and should be replaced. If "Lo" remains, then the 510 connector has a short, and gentle wiggle of the center contact (with a jewelery/eyeglass repair screwdriver) might help.
