That's not OE, that's DE as in Drain Error. Open the access panel on the lower left front of the machine, use the small hose to drain out the remaining water, then unscrew the large plug and clean out the filter attached to the plug. If there is nothing in the filter, you may have a blocked pump impeller (not very likely as the filter stops most objects) or the pump impeller may have come off the pump motor shaft. If the later, replace the pump motor, as just popping the impeller back on will only result in repeat of your problem.

In general this error code is the main control.

Resetting by pulling out the plug may help, but I wouldn't count on it.

This would require a new main control board.

SOURCE: LG error code is 0E...what would be the problem

Washing machine has an LE error code --> Is this a new installation?
In new installations, this error can sometimes present because of a miscommunication between the control panel and the wash motor. In this instance, the washer simply needs to be reset.
Step 1: Unplug the washing machine.
Step 2: While the washer remains unplugged, press and hold the [Start/Pause] button on the front panel for 5 seconds.
Step 3: Plug the unit back in, and run a rinse and spin cycle to test if the LE code is cleared.
Has a large load size been used with a gentle wash setting?
Gentle wash cycles such as Perm Press, Delicates, Hand Wash, and Wool/Silk should only be used for smaller loads. Because the cycles are more gentle while tumbling and spinning, too many items in the drum can register as an issue with the motor. In this instance reset the unit and run a test rinse and spin cycle.

Has the washer been overloaded?
Single bulky items or large loads can add extra weight to the drum and place stress on the motor. Remove some of the clothing and restart. If the issue is still present after a few items have been removed, unplug the washer for 30 minutes to allow the motor to cool and then restart the cycle.

Are there soap suds visible in the drum?
Over-sudsing is the main cause of LE error codes. Using non-HE (high efficiency) detergents or too much detergent will cause stress on the motor. In addition, detergent residue can also cause leaking and odor. Follow these steps to resolved an LE error code caused by over-sudsing.
Step 1: Unplug the washer and allow the unit to sit for 30 minutes to give the suds time to dissolve.
Step 2: Plug the washer back in and press [Power] to turn on the washer.
Step 3: Do not choose a washing cycle. Press the [Spin Speed] key until "No Spin" is selected.
Step 4: Press [Start/Pause] to begin a drain only cycle.
Step 5: After the drain only cycle has completed, remove the clothing items from the machine. Turn the power back on and select [Rinse and Spin] and then press [Start/Pause]. This will remove excess soap suds and light residue from the drum. Repeat this step until no visible suds are in the drum of the washer.

WHAT DOES IT NEED DONE WHEN ERROR MESSAGE SAYS 0E

An OE error code indicates that the washer was unable to drain the water. The main causes for this error code are a kinked drain hose, a clogged drain pump filter, or a problem with the drain pump itself.

Error code 0E on LG WM1290 FHB ?

The error code 0E stands for obstruction error, meaning that the drain line is obstructed. This is why the spin fails as all the water is not being drained. Check the drain hose for kinks and clean the drain filter. If they are not the problem, there could still be an obstruction in the drain hose in or about the drain pump.

I have an lg wd12650tp and it has stopped full of water with the code OE showing. I've tried emptying the filter at the front but it still wont drain? Any suggestions? btw apparently the code means...

Hi.

Error 0E is drain error.

Access the drain pump, located behind the service door at the base of the machine, in the front side, right below the washer door.

Disconnect power before starting the procedure.

Open the door and undo the pump attachment. Have a container ready to collect a good amount of water.

If that does not fix the problem, then there may be a fault. Further blockage, faulty pressure switch and faulty drain pump are the faults that can trigger error code 0E.

You can find parts and diagrams for most models using the link below:

We were doing a load of laundry and a symbol saying 0E came up. What does this mean?

Hi,
The LG error code OE simply means “the pump is blocked”. Presumably the water isn’t being emptied properly. it could be caused by other faults such as a faulty pump, or even a blockage in the drain hose or somewhere else in the system.
Thank You

Maytag-Neptune stopped part way though cycle. Error code 0E shows on LCD panel. Powering down does not reset. I can't enter service mode as described in the washer manual the 0E code remains.

In general this error code is the main control.

Resetting by pulling out the plug may help, but I wouldn't count on it.

This would require a new main control board.
