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
Common LG Washer Problems
- 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 filling. For the IE water supply code, LG says to open the taps fully, straighten kinked inlet hoses and clean the inlet filters. Source: LG Help Library - LG Washer Error Code List
