      Teresa PooleAug 22, 2025
      If your LG Washer displays the 'UE UNBALANCE ERROR', the automatic attempt to rebalance the laundry was unsuccessful. The cycle has been paused to allow the laundry to be manually adjusted. Alternatively, the load might be too small, so try adding more items. If heavy and light items are mixed, wash items of similar weight together. If the laundry is tangled, manually redistribute it.

    Why is my LG WT18WVTM leaking water?
    • A
      Anthony MarshallAug 27, 2025
      If your LG Washer is leaking water, it might be because the drain hose has come out of the drain or is not inserted far enough. Tie the drain hose to the supply hose or standpipe to prevent it from coming out. For smaller drain pipes, insert the drain hose into the pipe as far as the drain hose flange; for larger drain pipes, insert it 2.5 - 5 cm past the flange. Additionally, a large item like a pillow or blanket might be above the top of the drum; stop the appliance and ensure the item does not crest above the top edge of the drum.

    • A
      Angel JohnsonAug 27, 2025
      If detergent is not dispensed completely or at all in your LG Washer, it could be due to using too much detergent. Follow the detergent manufacturer's guidelines. Also, check the water inlet hose connection for looseness at the tap or appliance and tighten hose connections.
