How LG Washers Are Built
The door must lock before a cycle runs, and a door lock sensor, missing door magnet, bent latch or laundry caught in the gasket can trigger the dE code. 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
- 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
Reading a LG Washer Error Code

What Winthrop Owners Should Know
Most washer calls in Winthrop come down to the same handful of parts: the drain pump and filter, the lid switch or door lock, the drive belt or coupler, the inlet valve and the suspension.
Massachusetts does not issue a separate appliance repair license; running fuel gas piping to appliances and installing their vent piping is gas fitting work that requires a license from the Board of State Examiners of Plumbers and Gas Fitters.

In Massachusetts, you can check a license with the Massachusetts Division of Occupational Licensure eLIPSE license verification portal or report a problem to the Massachusetts Attorney General's Office, Consumer Advocacy and Response Division.
Questions to Ask a Winthrop Washer Technician
