How LG Washers Are Built
On LG front loaders the drain pump filter sits behind a service panel in the lower left corner and must be drained and unscrewed to clean. Source: LG Help Library - LG Front Load Washer Maintenance

LG Washer Symptoms and First Checks
- Washer not filling. For the IE water supply code, LG says to open the taps fully, straighten kinked inlet hoses and clean the inlet filters. Source: LG Help Library - LG Washer Error Code List
- 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

Local Notes for Paterson
Passaic Valley Water Commission (Main Service Area), which supplies Paterson, reports hardness of varies by supply blend: about 106-242 mg/L as CaCO3 from PVWC's Little Falls plant and about 42 mg/L from the Wanaque plant (NJDWSC); most Main Service Area customers get a blend of the two, so moderately soft to hard. Hard water leaves scale on washer inlet screens and heating parts and calls for the right detergent dose, which is worth mentioning when you book a repair.
