What Makes LG Washer Repairs Different
On LG front loaders the drain pump filter sits behind a service panel in the lower left corner and must be drained and unscrewed to clean. Source: LG Help Library - LG Front Load Washer Maintenance
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
- 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
- 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
Reading a LG Washer Error Code
