LG sells top-load agitator, top-load impeller, front-load, and all-in-one combo washers in the U.S., and the repair path differs by type: front loaders add a door lock, door boot and pump filter, while top loaders rely on a lid switch and either an agitator or an impeller.

California requires businesses that repair major home appliances such as refrigerators, ranges, dishwashers, washers and dryers for pay to register with the Bureau of Household Goods and Services as Major Home Appliance Service Dealers, including out-of-state providers serving California customers.
