Why won't my LG WT18 SB Washer start?

  Heather StoneAug 18, 2025
  There are several reasons why your LG washer might not be operating. First, ensure the control panel hasn't powered off due to inactivity by pressing the POWER button. Check that the washer is securely plugged into a working outlet and that the water supply is turned on fully. Make sure the cycle was set correctly, the door is closed properly, and the START/PAUSE button was pressed. Also, check the house circuit breakers/fuses. If the washing machine has been exposed to temperatures below freezing for an extended period of time, allow it to warm up before pressing the POWER button. In some cycles, the drum may stop temporarily while water is safely heated.

  Troy MillerAug 21, 2025
  If your LG washer is leaking water, check the supply hose connections at the tap and the washing machine to ensure they are tight and that the hoses are free from leaks, cracks, and splits. Also, inspect the house drain pipes for clogs during the drain cycle. Ensure the drain hose is properly installed and not backing up. If a large item is above the top of the drum, stop the washing machine and check the load. Make sure the load does not crest above the top edge of the drum.

  If your LG washer isn't filling properly, start by checking that the inlet filters on the fill valves are not clogged and that the supply hoses are not kinked or clogged. Make sure both hot and cold water taps are turned on all the way. Check the supply hose connections to ensure they are not reversed.

How to stop my LG WT18 SB Washer from vibrating?
- B
  Bridget ThomasAug 30, 2025
  To reduce vibrating noise in your LG washer, first, make sure all packaging materials have been removed. Pause the cycle and redistribute the load if it's unevenly distributed in the drum. Ensure all leveling feet are resting firmly and evenly on the floor. Also, confirm that the floor is solid and does not flex.

Why does my LG WT18 SB Washer make a thumping sound?
- C
  Christina SpencerSep 1, 2025
  A thumping sound in your LG washer is usually normal for heavy wash loads. If the sound continues, the washing machine is probably out of balance. Stop the cycle and redistribute the wash load. Alternatively, pause the cycle and redistribute the load after the door unlocks.

How to prevent wrinkles in my LG Washer?
- N
  Nathan BridgesSep 3, 2025
  To prevent wrinkling when using your LG washer, promptly remove items as soon as the cycle is complete. Avoid overloading the washing machine; the drum should not be tightly packed, and the door should close easily. Check the supply hose connections; hot water rinse can set wrinkles in garments if the hot and cold water supply hoses are reversed.

Why does my LG WT18 SB Washer cause staining?
- K
  Kelsey MillerSep 6, 2025
  Staining in your LG washer can occur if bleach or softener is dispensed too soon because the dispenser compartment is overfilled. Always measure bleach to prevent overfilling and close the dispenser drawer slowly. Ensure you always use the dispensers to ensure that laundry products are properly dispensed at the right time in the cycle. Also, always wash dark colours separately from light colours and whites to prevent discolouration, and never wash heavily soiled items with lightly soiled items.

  Andrea LaneSep 8, 2025
  A rattling or clanking noise in your LG washer may be due to foreign objects, such as keys, coins, or safety pins, in the drum. Stop the washing machine and check the drum for these objects. If the noise continues after restarting, call for service.
