What Makes LG Washer Repairs Different
LG top load washers use a direct drive motor rather than a belt-driven design. Source: LG - Top Load Washers
LG top loaders come in two wash-action styles: an impeller that rubs clothes against each other, and an agitator that moves clothes side to side and up and down. Source: LG - Top Load Washers
What LG Says to Check First
- Door won't lock. For the dE code, LG says to make sure no laundry is caught in the door or gasket and close the door firmly; a bent latch or torn gasket needs service. Source: LG Help Library - LG WashTower Error Code Resolution Guide
- Washer not spinning. LG says to check for an error code, spread the load evenly, make sure the washer is level, remove any coins or small objects from the drum, then run a Rinse & Spin test. Source: LG Help Library - Washing Machine Drum Not Spinning
