Hi The 'LE' error message indicates the control
board has detected that the motor is either not turning, or has locked up for
some reason. Monitoring the motor is the job of the hall effect sensor board
which constantly determines the direction and speed of the motor and feeds that
information back to the control board. If there is a problem between what the
motor should be doing and what the hall effect sensor says the motor is doing,
the 'LE' will be displayed and the cycle will be stopped. 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. Please get back to us if you have further
query or else please accept the solution. Thanks for contacting fixya.com
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 3: Plug the unit back in, and run a rinse and spin cycle to test if the LE
code is cleared.
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.
