How LG Washers Are Built

Common LG Washer Problems
- Off balance, shaking. For the UE code, LG says to redistribute the load evenly, avoid overfilling the drum, and make sure the washer is level. Source: LG Help Library - LG WashTower Error Code Resolution Guide
- Washer odor. LG links odor mainly to detergent that does not dissolve and to lint or hair left in the gasket or drain pump filter, and says to clean the detergent dispenser first. Source: LG Help Library - LG Washer Troubleshooting: Odor Buildup
