I have an LG front load washer. At first it wasn’t spinning at all so I replaced the door lock mechanism. While it now does spin it doesn’t spin fast and the clothes are still soaked. I tried the diagnostics test and am getting a bE error code. Trying to figure out how to resolve this issue. Can you pls advise? Thanks in advance.

Are you sure it isn't a "tE" error code? A common error. It can cause your type of symptoms.

SOURCE: Doesn't spin the clothes dry on the final spin but spins at high revolutions without a load of clothes

I have read that if the pump is not draining the tub completely, there is an interlock that prevents the high speed spin from engagin. I have had debris caught in my pump several times (kids!!) with similar issues. There is a trap on the line leading from the tub to the pump which is "supposed" to capture debris, but it doesn't work all that well. Check your pump.....

SOURCE: LG front load washer/ clothes still wet after final spin

The heavy jacket prevented the washer from spinning at a rapid pace, so I added a heavy bathrobe to absorb some of the water and to balance the load. The washer then spun very quickly and drained out all the water.

SOURCE: Kenmore 417. 4405200 Front Load Washer error code E43

It's a bad wax motor inside the door latch. The diagnostics are buggy and do not test it properly. It should measure about 1.5K ohms, and when 120 VAC is applied to it, it should extend in about a minute. Part number 12002535 is $10 to $15.

SOURCE: LTF2940ES3--Washer drains, but will not do a final spin.

Hi. You have done a great job diagnosing your unit. This unit is designed to not allow a full scaled spin out, if there are issues with the on-board door lock mechanism. This is standard safety equipment for most units. Once this damaged door lock mechanism is replaced, the washer will operate properly. The full scaled spin out will return.

SOURCE: Frigidaire Front Load Washer won't Spin

i fixed mine about 5 times and its always some thing diffrent.
try buyng the inexpencive parts first and leave for last the electronic control panel.
it could be that your washing a smaller amount than the recomended.
Take it to a profesional. dont do like me a DIY guy. Some times i need to take pictures when taking the monster appart and then because they are somany screws missing duct tape, rope or hangerwire becomes usefull.
All mechanics are wise guys you and me are thevictims.

Hello - Does the unit make a humming noise? If so, either the drainage hose/pump is clogged and needs to be cleaned, or you have another issue with the door lock assembly or the timer and control board not communicating correctly. Contact a professional to move forward accurately.

My front load washer won't spin. It goes thru all the rest of the cycles except spin. It doesn't spin between wash and rinse either. It drains great, I've already checked that and no restrictions.

the next thing you will need to do is replace the door lock mechanism this will fail and cause the issue you are having the only other thing would be the main control board,but replace the door lock mechanism first.

LG- WM2355C Wont lock and start spinning. Shows

Unplug the washer for fifteen minutes and if that doesn't it is your lock mechanism. You will need a repair man or if you are handy you can do it.

Will not spin on spin cycle

It sounds like there's a problem with the door lock mechanism. If the washer the thinks the door isn't locked, it won't spin. You might be able to just replace the whole assembly by yourself.
