I have the above machine and it keeps having an OE error come up when time to drain & spin, I have cleaned fliter and made sure there is not any kinks in hose, but still to no avail, then I ran machine without any washing in it and it completed the spin cycle no probs, what could this be??

Thanks

    Hi Kebab



    Same issue only my model is a WD-1290RD. Haqve cleaned the fiters many times and can often coax the washer to actually finish by aborting the rinse, power down, drain, reposition the load (once to door is unloacked post drain), restart the rinse only cycle on a different spin speed? Really **** solution and the LG site is useless, even the manual doesn't download! Love to hear any fixes out there.... Steve

You will find that the pressure sensor sampling tube is blocked with soap deposits. Needs to be cleaned out for the sensor to work properly.

LG WM-2277HW Front Load Washer

  • freddyOz Nov 08, 2010

    Had the same problem. After checking that all the hoses etc were clear and no blockages, then suspected that the pump (cost $90 Australian dollar) was faulty. The Westinghouse service technician acknowledged that that was probably the problem, which I then confirmed by pulling out the pump, and then carefully connecting 240V across the pump terminals. Certainly was a faulty pump. So I spent the money on a new pump and installed it and now the washing machine (6 to 7 years old) works fantastically.

Model WT5001CW top loader. OE error. Why doesn't it drain?

If your washing machine cannot either drain or spin then the water level control could be faulty. Open up and look at the washers control panel and also look for a plastic tube attached to the water level valve. If appears to be clogged clean it out with vinegar. If the valve itself is broken or rusted then. it may need to be replaced.Have a person that repairs washing machines to have a look at it.

My LG Tromm front loader has an OE error message and isn't spinning. First received the message during a full load of laundry. Had to drain the water from the hose at the bottom and finally got it unlocked...

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

I have a Westinghouse Mastermind 711 Front Loader Washing Machine which is flashing OE and the clothes inside are very wet. Can you please let me know what this flashing OE means....Many Thanks, ELena

Hello & Welcome to FixYa

OE is a drain error and is displayed when the washer is unable to drain water. Please check the drain hose and drain pump filter for any clogs to clean the error. Please get back to me if you have any other questions.

Front loader wm2277hs washer with OE error sign

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.
And from your original post, I see that you have checked the drain pipe and the pump filter..

Those are the only 2 things I would of asked you to check aswell.

As for the price, I cannot answer that as most manufacturers wont publish their prices unfortunatly.

Sorry I couldnt of offered more help.

LG WM-2032HW front loader washer gives error goes OE and IE

"OE" is really "DE"= drain error. Clean out filter behind access door on lower left corner front panel of machine. (there will be some water in machine)
"IE" = inlet error. machine took too long to fill. clean out inlet water screens where the hoses connect onto machine.
