If your LG washer won't turn on, start by ensuring the power cord is securely plugged into a grounded, 3-prong outlet. Also, check your house fuse or circuit breaker; reset the breaker or replace the fuse if needed. If a circuit overload is the problem, consult a qualified electrician.
Why is my LG WM2487HWMA leaking water?
Water leaking around your LG washer could be due to a loose fill hose connection at the tap or washer. Check the hoses and tighten the connections. Alternatively, the house drain pipes may be clogged; unclog them or contact a plumber if necessary.
What to do if my LG WM2487HWMA won’t spin?
If your LG washer won’t spin, 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.
What to do if door will not unlock on my LG Washer?
If the door of your LG washer won’t unlock after stopping or pausing a cycle, it might be due to a high interior temperature. Allow the washer to cool until the DOOR LOCK indicator turns off. Alternatively, the water level may be too high; let the washer complete the cycle or run the DRAIN & SPIN cycle to remove the water.
Why is water draining slowly from my LG WM2487HWMA?
Slow or non-existent draining in your LG washer could be due to a bent, pinched, or clogged drain hose. Ensure the drain hose is free of clogs and kinks, and that it's not pinched behind or under the washer. Another cause may be a clogged drain filter, so clean the drain filter.
Why is my LG WM2487HWMA Washer filling slowly?
If your LG washer is filling slowly or not at all, ensure the water supply taps are fully open. Also, check the water line hoses for kinks or pinches. Clean the water inlet filters if they are clogged. Lastly, verify that the water pressure to your tap or house is adequate by checking another faucet.
Why is my LG Washer vibrating so much?
Excessive vibration in your LG washer can stem from several causes. First, ensure that all shipping bolts and packaging have been removed, referring to the Installation Instructions for guidance. An unevenly distributed wash load can also cause vibration; stop the washer and rearrange the load. Additionally, check that all leveling feet are firmly on the floor and adjust them as necessary. Finally, ensure the floor is solid and doesn't flex; consult the “Flooring” section in the Installation guide for more details.
Why is my LG WM2487HWMA making a thumping sound?
A thumping sound in your LG washer is often normal with heavy wash loads. However, if the sound persists, it could indicate that the washer is out of balance. Stop the washer and redistribute the wash load to correct this.
How to fix staining in my LG Washer?
Staining in your LG washer can occur if laundry products are added directly to the drum; instead, load them into the dispenser. Also, promptly unload the washer after the cycle is complete. Ensure clothes are sorted properly, washing dark colors separately from light colors and whites, and avoiding washing heavily soiled items with lightly soiled ones.
Why is my LG WM2487HWMA wash cycle time longer than usual?
Your LG washer automatically adjusts the wash time based on factors like the amount of laundry, water pressure, water temperature, and other operating conditions. This adjustment is normal and ensures optimal results for the selected cycle.
