LE stands for locked motor error.  The first thing you should try is simply unplugging the machine for 10 minutes.  If the problem continues the next most likely cause is the hall sensor.  To get to the hall sensor remove the back cover, then remove the wheel that is attched to the drum.  Undre that wheel if the stator (motor).  At the bottom there is a sensor that spans about three of the windings.  This is the hall sensor.  It is not very expensive.  If neither of those work you will need to replace the Stator (motor)

Hi, we have a lg wm0532hw tromm front loader washer, the latch on the door seems to be broken, it slides all the way back into the door frame and washer will not lock. Can this be fixed? thank...

Hi from retired Englishman in SW France,

I'm sure it can but you will need to call a local service engineer to do it. Sorry we cannot call one for you.

I START MY WASHER AND IT TELLS ME THERE IS A LE ERROR. IT LOOKS LIKE THE DRUM IS NOT SPINNING, JUST SLIGHT MOVEMENT. BY HAND I CAN ROTATE THE DRUM. ????

LE stands for locked motor error..
1 . check the connections to the Coil/Stator at the rear of the unit possible broken wire.
2 . Coil/Stator Assembly is defective hence no drive

WM0532HW LG front loader washing machine displays LE

LE codes are extensively covered in past Fix-Ya solutions, but are generally caused by only a handful of things. 1. the " Load Error " can be a very off balanced load. 2. excessive use of soap leads to too much suds, and thus drag on the inner tub. (use 1 tablespoon of HE soap max. per load) or 3. the Hall sensor (part number 6501KW2001A) has failed. The hall sensor is rather easy to replace, and is covered by a seven year part warranty. Take the back cover off. Take the big nut off and remove the motor rotor. Remove the bolts holding the motor windings. Remove the electric plug on the sensor and unclip it from the motor winding. Snap new sensor on and reassemble. Usually takes under a half hour. On a difficulty scale of 1 - 10, it might rate a 4. This should be a Fix-Ya for your machine, and at basically no cost!
In the US, find a service provider using your zip code at http://us.lgservice.com/index_b2c.jsp or call LG at 800-243-0000.
