I had my washer serviced some years ago and the tech had to run the washer LG wm1832cw do a number of fills/empties/spins to find that the shocks were bad (It was making loud noises on the spin cycle). Apparently there is a way, by pressing a combo of buttons, to force a spin cycle. This would be handy to spin water out of rain soaked items or wet towels. Does any one have those codes?
1. press POWER button to turn om.

I wondered if anyone had the codes to force a spin cycle. Apparently there is such a code or combo of buttons to push, but b_b_applianc thinks I should buy an entire manual for that code, on page 20? . I dont want to repair my machine, just have it spin the water from wet clothes. If anyone knows of the combination of buttons to push to force a spin , I would appreciate it.
The referenced link has many "listed" models service manuals of various items. However the manual for my model, LG wm1832cw, was not available. So while it appears to be a potential help, this link did not help me in my search for a solution to my "problem". Maybe someone could tell me what page 20 says......
