If you notice water leaking around your LG washer, the fill hose connection may be loose at the tap or washer. Check the hoses and tighten the hose connections. Alternatively, the house drain pipes may be clogged. In this case, unclog the drain pipe, and contact a plumber if necessary.
Why is my LG WM0742H*A Washer not turning on?
Your LG washer might not turn on if the power cord is not properly plugged in. Ensure the plug is securely plugged into a grounded, 3-prong, 120-VAC, 60-Hz outlet. Another possibility is a blown house fuse, a tripped circuit breaker, or a power outage. Reset the circuit breaker or replace the fuse, without increasing the fuse capacity. If the problem is a circuit overload, have it corrected by a qualified electrician.
What to do if my LG Washer door will not unlock?
If the door of your LG washer won’t unlock after stopping or pausing a cycle, it could be due to a couple of reasons. The interior temperature of the washer might be too high; the washer door has a safety lock to prevent burns, so allow the washer to cool until the DOOR LOCK indicator turns off. Alternatively, the water level in the washer might be too high; allow the washer to complete the programmed cycle, or run the DRAIN & SPIN cycle to drain the water.
Why won't my LG WM0742H*A spin?
Your LG washer may not spin if the door is not closed properly. Make sure that the door is closed properly and press the START/PAUSE button. After starting a cycle, it may take a few moments before the drum begins to turn or spin. The washer will not spin unless the door is locked (DOOR LOCK will appear in the display). If the door is closed and locked and the open door error message is displayed, call for service.

How do I troubleshoot a LOCKED MOTOR ERROR on my LG WM0742H*A Washer?
If your LG Washer displays a LOCKED MOTOR ERROR, first ensure the connector in the MOTOR HARNESS is properly connected to the connector of the STATOR ASSEMBLY. Also check if the electric contact between the connectors in the MOTOR HARNESS and the connector in the MAIN PWB ASSEMBLY is bad or unstable and repair or replace if needed. Inspect the MOTOR HARNESS between the STATOR ASSEMBLY and MAIN PWB ASSEMBLY and replace if it is cut. Finally, inspect and replace the hall sensor if it is defective.
Why is my LG WM0742H*A staining clothes?
Staining in your LG washer may occur if laundry products are added directly to the washer drum instead of the dispenser. Load laundry products into the dispenser. Another reason could be not unloading the washer promptly; always remove items from the washer as soon as the cycle is complete. Finally, clothes not being properly sorted can cause staining. Always wash dark colors separately from light colors and whites to prevent discoloration, and if possible, do not wash heavily soiled items with lightly soiled ones.
What to do if LG WM0742H*A water drains slowly?
If water in your LG washer drains slowly or not at all, or the display shows an error, the drain hose may be bent, pinched, or clogged. Make sure the drain hose is free of clogs, kinks, etc., and is not pinched behind or under the washer. Also, the drain filter may be clogged. Clean the drain filter; refer to the User Maintenance Instructions section for guidance.
What to do if LG Washer fills slowly?
If your LG washer fills with water slowly or not at all, or the display shows an error, ensure that the water supply taps are fully open. Also, check that the water line hoses are not kinked, pinched, or bent, being careful when moving the washer. The water inlet filters may also be clogged; clean the inlet filters, referring to the User Maintenance Instructions section. Finally, the water pressure to the tap or house may be too low; check another faucet in the house to ensure that household water pressure is adequate.
Why is my LG WM0742H*A making a vibrating noise?
A vibrating noise in your LG washer can occur for several reasons. It could be due to shipping bolts and packaging materials not being removed during installation, an unevenly distributed wash load, leveling feet not resting firmly on the floor, or the floor not being rigid enough. To address this, check the installation instructions to ensure all shipping bolts and packaging have been removed. Stop the washer and rearrange the wash load if it's uneven. Adjust the leveling feet to ensure all four are in firm contact with the floor during the spin cycle. Finally, ensure the floor is solid and doesn't flex.
