Why does my LG WM2016CW Washer show an imbalance error?
If your LG Washer displays an imbalance error, it could be due to several factors. The load might be too small, the appliance could be tilted, the laundry might be gathered to one side, or non-distributable items are in the drum. Check these potential causes to resolve the issue.
What to do if the load is out of balance in my LG WM2016CW Washer?
If your LG washer load is too small or out of balance, add one or two similar items to help balance the load. You can also rearrange the load to allow proper spinning. If the imbalance is too great, after several attempts to restart the spin cycle, the machine will stop.
What to do if the drain hose or filter is clogged in my LG WM2016CW Washer?
If the drain hose of your LG washer is bent or clogged, or if the drain filter is clogged, clean and straighten the drain hose and clean the drain filter.
Why is water not entering or draining properly in my LG Washer?
If water isn't entering your LG washer or is draining slowly, start by checking another tap in your house to ensure adequate water supply. Fully open the tap connected to the washer. Straighten any kinks in the hose. Inspect the filter of the inlet hose for clogs. Additionally, clean and straighten the drain hose, and clean the drain filter to ensure proper drainage.
What to do if my LG Washer has water leaks or excessive suds?
If you notice water leaks or excessive suds in your LG washer, check and tighten all hose connections first. If the issue persists, unclog the drain pipe, contacting a plumber if necessary. To address excessive suds, reduce the amount of detergent you're using or switch to an HE (High Efficiency) detergent.
Why won't my LG Washer start or spin?
If your LG Washer isn't starting or spinning, ensure the plug is securely in the wall outlet. Check the circuit breaker or fuse, replacing if necessary, but do not increase the fuse capacity. If a circuit overload is the issue, consult a qualified electrician. Also, make sure the water supply tap is on, the door is fully closed, and you've pressed the Start/Pause button. Remember that it may take a moment for the washer to begin spinning after pressing Start/Pause, as the door must lock first.
What does LOCKED MOTOR ERROR mean on my LG WM2016CW Washer?
A LOCKED MOTOR ERROR can occur for several reasons: the connector (3-pin, male, white) in the MOTOR HARNESS is not connected to the connector (3-pin, female, white) of STATOR ASSEMBLY; the electric contact between the connectors (3-pin, male, white) in the MOTOR HARNESS and 4-pin, female, white connector in the MAIN PWB ASSEMBLY is bad or unstable; the MOTOR HARNESS between the STATOR ASSEMBLY and MAIN PWB ASSEMBLY is cut (open circuited); or the hall sensor is out of order/defective.
