Know Your LG Washer
How LG Washers Are Built
LG top loaders come in two wash-action styles: an impeller that rubs clothes against each other, and an agitator that moves clothes side to side and up and down. Source: LG - Top Load Washers
LG top load washers use a direct drive motor rather than a belt-driven design. Source: LG - Top Load Washers
What LG Says to Check First
- 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
- 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
