LG Washer Lines and Features
How LG Washers Are Built
LG top load washers use a direct drive motor rather than a belt-driven design. Source: LG - Top Load Washers
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
LG Washer Symptoms and First Checks
- 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
- 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
What LG Washer Codes Mean

Texas has no separate appliance repair license; under the Plumbing License Law, appliance dealers and their employees may install and service appliances (other than water heaters) without a plumbing license when hooking up to existing openings with a code-approved appliance connector, while other gas or water piping work generally requires a plumbing license. Source: Plumbing License Law, Tex. Occ. Code ch. 1301, §1301.053 (Texas State Board of Plumbing Examiners)
In Texas, you can check a license with the Texas plumbing Public License Search or report a problem to the Texas Attorney General, Consumer Protection Division.
