What to do if my LG Washer won't start or spin?
- S
  Sherri MendezJul 29, 2025
  If your LG Washer isn't starting or spinning, first ensure the electrical power cord is tightly plugged into the wall outlet. Check your house fuse or circuit breaker and reset if necessary, and ensure the water supply tap is turned on. Also, make sure the door is firmly shut. Press the Start/Pause button; it may take a few moments for the washer to begin spinning, as the door must be locked first. If it won't spin, add 1 or 2 similar items to help balance the load, or rearrange the load for proper spinning.

Why is my LG F1480FD leaking water or not draining properly?
- D
  daniellenelsonAug 2, 2025
  Water leaks, slow filling, or draining issues with your LG Washer can stem from several causes. Check if the fill or drain hoses are loose at the tap or washer and tighten them. Clogged house drain pipes can also be a culprit; unclog them or contact a plumber. Ensure adequate water supply by checking another tap and fully opening the tap. Straighten any kinked water inlet or drain hoses, and inspect and clean the filters of the inlet hose and drain filter. Also, too much or unsuitable detergent can cause excessive foaming and leaks.

Why won't my LG F1480FD start or spin?
- C
  ckramerAug 10, 2025
  Your LG washer might not start or spin due to several reasons: * The power cord might not be properly plugged in. Ensure it's tightly fitted into the wall outlet. * A blown fuse, tripped circuit breaker, or power outage could be the cause. Reset the circuit breaker or replace the fuse. Remember not to increase the fuse capacity. If there's a circuit overload, get it fixed by a qualified electrician. * The water supply tap might be off. Turn it on. * Also, make sure the door is closed properly and that you have pressed the Start/Pause button. It can take a moment for the washer to begin spinning after you press Start/Pause, as the door needs to lock first.

Why does my LG F1480FD Washer make rattling and clanking noises?
- T
  Tracy MoralesAug 25, 2025
  Rattling and clanking noises in your LG Washer can be due to foreign objects like coins or safety pins in the drum or pump. Stop the washer and check the drum and drain filter for any obstructions. If the noise persists after restarting, contact an authorized service center. A thumping sound may be normal with heavy wash loads. Vibrating noise may mean that transit bolts and packing weren't removed during installation, or the feet aren't firmly on the ground, or the wash load is unevenly distributed. Refer to the Installation guide for removing transit bolts, or stop the washer and rearrange the wash load.
