I'n getting the LE code on my LG Tromm WM0264H. It will spin both directions for about 5 minutes then the LE code comes on. Have reset it (unplugged for an hour). Tried it on rinse and spin. Same problem.
How do I get to the hall sensor?

I fixed this myself. I found an on-line LG service manual and bought the hall sensor (about $30). It took all of a half an hour to repair this myself. I read that too much soap and fabric softener will make the circuits on the mother board heat up and short out the hall sensor (gunk and resistance on the wash drum). It is running like a top again. The local parts store said to periodically run bleach and water through the soap, and softener despenser to help keep it clean.
Hello &
Welcome to FixYa
LE error in your LG front load washer is displayed
when either the motor is not working or the control board thinks that the motor
is locked up. A Hall effect sensor is used in these washer which monitors the
speed and direction of the motor and then forwards this information to the
control board. Hope you understand by now that this LE error is displayed when
their is an issue with the motor or when the hall effect sensor sends wrong
signal to the control. Conclusion is you'll have to check both motor and hall
sesor and replace the part# that is bad, usually I have seen the sensor going
bad. Please get back to me if you have any other questions.

I am getting an LE error code on my LG wm2277hb washer. I have tested the stator and it appears to be good (ohms test between connectors). I have also replaced the Hall sensor as well. I've looked for bad/ broken wires but haven't found any. The motor doesn't seem to have any problems spinning. The drum spins freely without issues or noise. The motor seems to have no problems turning as it will cycle through the wash cycle without getting stuck. I have also run it through the diagnostic cycle and the motor spins the drum without issues. I am wondering, could be the control board causing this issue somehow?
