At startup, your LG washing machine does not spin the drum, although it scrolls well by hand, after which it shows the LE error on the display. And this happens on different programs: "Rinse", "Laundry", "Spin."
In direct-drive Al Ji washing machines, the drum can twitch, which means the motor is blocked or the engine is restarted.
What does LE code mean?
Before decrypting the DTC, make sure that you understand the meaning correctly.
The fact is that earlier LG SM models do not give the LE error quite correctly. Many users confuse code 1E with LE, because on the scoreboard it is displayed as in the photo:
In fact, the meaning of the codes is fundamentally different.
How to fix the problem, if the LG washing machine is lit LE error, read on.
What to do to solve the problem
Before fixing the breakdown, we will understand the reasons for issuing the code and how to solve the problem. What to do:
- Check the washing door for tightness. Press down the hatch until it clicks.
- If an error appeared on the Spin program during delicate washing, the tank is probably overloaded with laundry. You need to reduce weight by selecting a piece of clothing.
- Disconnect the LG washing machine from the network (for no more than 20 minutes), then turn it on. This should clear the error.
- A foreign object may enter.If it is stuck between the tank and the drum, it creates a mechanical lock. To remove the item, you have to disassemble the tank washer.
- Check mains voltage. Maybe the power is not enough for the machine to work correctly, or the wiring that needs to be replaced is broken.
- A power surge has occurred. If this happens frequently, the PF code will appear on the display alternately with the LE error, which means “power failure”. Rebooting the system or installing a stabilizer can help.
How to fix the problem if error reset did not occur? Repair that can be done on its own will help.
What to repair - prompt signs of a malfunction.
Tachogenerator failure
This device is responsible for engine speed. If the tachometer fails, the machine starts to buzz violently, does not spin the drum, and the LE error is displayed. Check the tachogenerator and replace if necessary.
Control Module Issues
A sign of failure is the termination of the Lji machine in the "Wash", "Rinse" or "Spin" modes, after which the system generates an LE error. Remove and check the module, if possible - repair. If the part is defective - replace.
Motor winding problems
If the winding burns out, the LE error is displayed on the display, the washer does not spin the drum at all. It is necessary to replace the stator or motor.
The door does not close
The hatch door does not close or is not blocked, the SM displays a malfunction code. The lock or door handle may have broken, requiring replacement.There may also be a disturbance of contact in the UBL circuit.
Check the wires and change to working ones.
Line filter malfunction
A malfunction in the line filter may cause a LE error. Check the device for breakdown with a multimeter.
