LG washer Error Codes
Explanations follow official LG support pages.
- DEThe washer door is not closed properly - often because laundry is caught between the door and the rubber door gasket.
- DE2The door is closed but not locked. May occur when the load is too heavy, items are caught between the door and the rubber gasket.
- DLDoor lock error: the door locking mechanism is not functioning properly - the door is closed but the washer will not operate.
- E3Drain motor error: an issue with the operation of the drain motor; it may also occur if water inside the washer froze due to cold weather.
- FEWater overfilling problem: the drain pump activates to prevent leaks and extra water may have entered the drum, possibly through the detergent dispenser.
- FFFreeze failure: occurs when the temperature inside the washer drops below 1C so water in the drain or inlet hoses freezes.
- IEWater Inlet Error: the tub did not fill to an adequate water level within the set time.
- OEThe washing machine is unable to drain the wash water. It is usually caused by a kinked or clogged drain hose or a clogged drain pump filter.
- SUDThe washer detected too many suds and adds a suds-reducing cycle (about 2 hours longer).
- U51Freeze failure: the machine stopped with FF/u51 or OE when water remaining inside the supply or drain hose froze in cold weather.
