LG sells top-load agitator, top-load impeller, front-load, and all-in-one combo washers in the U.S., and the repair path differs by type: front loaders add a door lock, door boot and pump filter, while top loaders rely on a lid switch and either an agitator or an impeller.

What Makes LG Washer Repairs Different
LG top load washers use a direct drive motor rather than a belt-driven design. Source: LG - Top Load Washers
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
What LG Says to Check First
- Washer leaking. LG suggests first confirming the leak is from the washer, then checking the door area and an overfilled or residue-clogged detergent dispenser. Source: LG Help Library - LG Front Load Washing Machine Troubleshooting: Leaks
- 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
