Common LG Washer Problems
- 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
- 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
What LG Washer Codes Mean
| Code | What it means |
|---|---|
| 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 |
| 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 |
| CE | Motor over-current or a damaged motor control component; LG says this needs service if a power reset does not clear it. Source: LG Help Library - LG WashTower Error Code Resolution Guide |

New Jersey has no license specific to appliance repair; plumbing work is reserved to state-licensed master plumbers, and gas piping work on the customer side of the meter falls under HVACR contractor licensing, both overseen by boards in the Division of Consumer Affairs.

In New Jersey, you can check a license with the New Jersey Division of Consumer Affairs License Verification System or report a problem to the New Jersey Division of Consumer Affairs.
