Common LG Washer Problems
- 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
- 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
