LG TROMM - Won't spin - Spin button - blinking

if you go to spin only cycle, does it drain and then spin? if yes, then most likely control board.

OE is normally down to blocked drain pipes, mcalpine (connection under the sink) or a blocked front filter. empty the machine and unscrew the filter behind the flap at the bottom right hand side, check for any obstructions, icoins, hair grips etc are normally blocking here

Find the drain pump and check the sloppiness of the impeller, if it has sloppiness in the shaft it throws a code and some times it will work just enough to not throw a code but not pull the water enough at spin cycle...
They run around $150 online, fairly easy to replace.
The slowing of the machine may be a limp mode, so that you don't tear up the rest of the machine...good luck!

The LG error code OE simply means "the pump is blocked". Presumably the water isn't being emptied properly. As with all error codes it is possible that there is a cause other than the exact description in the error code explanation but basically this error means as far as the washing machine is concerned it thinks the water isn't pumping out. A pump, or filter blockage is the most common cause but 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 etc.

Take the front off and check all the hoses going in and out of the drain pump.

Washer has a filter, at the bottom left handside of washer, which needs to be cleaned out. Refer to manual. Worked for me :)

OE code should appear. I've been able to re-start after unplugging the machine for ten minutes and then re-plug and it did clear the code and spin out but I'm back to the same problem and unplugging isn't working anymore. I'm wondering now if the issue maybe the machine isn't level. Well, something I'm now going to check. Good luck.

take off the front kick plate on the bottom and there is a pea trap thats conected to the pump twist it off and see if it is cloged thats what usaully makes it not spin
