LG Washer Lines and Features
How LG Washers Are Built
LG washers read the water level with a level sensor connected by a hose, and a clogged sensor hose or oversudsing can cause overfill or sensor codes. Source: LG Help Library - LG WashTower Error Code Resolution Guide
What LG Says to Check First
- 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
- Washer leaking. LG suggests first confirming the leak is from the washer, then checking the door area and an overfilled or residue-clogged detergent dispenser. Source: LG Help Library - LG Front Load Washing Machine Troubleshooting: Leaks
