LG Direct Drive WM-16220FD loud vibration during spin cycle

Are you receiving a "LE" error code on the display? If so, you'll possibly need a Hall sensor or Stator assembly replacement. If you have your units date of purchase, it will possibly fall under the 7 or 10 year warranty on the direct drive assembly which includes hall sensor/stator/ and the rotor.


You can refer to LG for service if you'd like.

That is what is probably wrong. It is better just to buy a new one Alan.

mc not level

May be the bearing in your direct drive shaft. If washer is a belt drive, the belt could be frayed

Hi!

Most noises from a washing machine occur during the spin cycle. If you hear loud thumping during the spin, the load of clothes may have become unbalanced. Stop the washer and redistribute the clothes, then re-start it. Repeat these steps if necessary. If there's a loud thumping noise during the spin cycle, the load of clothes has probably gotten unbalanced. Open the lid, redistribute the clothes in the washer, then re-start it. Repeat these steps if necessary.

Please do accept this solution and revert for further assistance.


Thanks

reduce the amount of cloth and make sure the cloth don't fix in one corner

check the vibration damper rods for breakage - especially the mounts.
