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 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
Reading a LG Washer Error Code
| Code | What it means |
|---|---|
| CL | Not a fault: child lock is on. 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 |
| 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 |
