BRand new installation of 1 year old machine we

If the machine still works and that is the only problem I would use it till it doesn't, really they cost so much to fix sometimes

Any water leak presents the danger of ELECTROCUTION with machines operating at mains voltage.

Never, but never use a leaking machine until the problem is fully remedied. Call a qualified Technician and get peace of mind for but a few dollars.

Hi,
Here is a tip that I wrote that gives more detail about how to fix the OE codeon LG washers....

LG Washing Machine OE Error Code

Open the access door at the bottom left corner of your washer. Use the small hose there to drain the remaining water from the machine. Un-screw the big knob next to it and pull out the attached filter. Clean out the filter and re-install. If the filter was clear, replace drain pump motor.

Hi,

Here is a tip that I wrote about the LG OE Code and the causes and fixes...

Here also is the complete list of LG Codes

IE is a water supply error. turn water off to machine and unscrew your 2 water hoses on back of machine and clean inlet screens with old toothbrush. if they are clean, you probably have a stuck closed water solenoid.

We have an LG TROMM with the same problem, 3 years old as well. We bought the extended warranty (Huge waste of $$$$).  So far they have determined it is not the motor or either of the control boards.  We think it might be a relay switch or possibly the brake.  Good luck with yours, we just went out and bought a new washer.

First try unplugging the machine for a few minutes and then retry a cycle. If you still get the LE error:

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 (in the US). 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

I had the same problem and it would leak huge amounts of water all over the floor.  After having a repair person out 5 times.  It was supposedly a fault that the seals on the door needed to be replaced.  My washing machine leaked from brand new.  It does leak from time to time but no where near what it use to.  Hope this helps!
