What Makes LG Washer Repairs Different
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
- 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
- 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
LG Washer Error Codes
| Code | What it means |
|---|---|
| UE | The load is unbalanced; redistribute the clothes, and top loaders will try to rebalance on their own a few times. Source: LG Help Library - LG Washer Error Code List |
| LE | The motor is overloaded or locked and cannot turn the drum, often from overloading, back-to-back cycles or a trapped object. Source: LG Help Library - LG WashTower Error Code Resolution Guide |
| FE | Too much water in the tub, which can come from oversudsing, a clogged level sensor hose or a clogged drain filter. Source: LG Help Library - LG WashTower Error Code Resolution Guide |
