LG washing machine: Excess water from drain pump hose after each load

Mon, 08 Jul 2024 09:12:10 -0700

I have an LG WM3050. I have to drain the water from the drain pump hose after every load, and it drains at least 2 cups. If I don't drain it, water ends up on floor under machine on next load. I took the washer apart, checked all the hoses, and replaced the drain pump with a new one. Still happening. There is no water left in the tub when load is finished, and clothes aren't too wet, so I know the water is clearing the tub. Anyone know what could be causing this problem?

LG washing machine: Lg Wm2010cw, pausing mid cycle, drains sometimes OE

Tue, 06 Feb 2024 20:25:24 -0700

I have an LG Wm2010cw. It's a frontoading washing machine. Recently I have been getting an OE error, which is a drain problem. I've checked the pump filter, checked the hoses, all clear. Interestingly, when I ran a Rinse/Spin on the already sopping wet clothes, it finished the cycle with no errors! Any thoughts on how I can fix this so I don't have to manually reset every load?

LG washing machine: LG WM2233HD doesn't spin or agitate

Mon, 10 Feb 2025 15:30:29 -0700

LG front load washer doesn’t agitate or spin.

It fills water, drains water. But no agitation and no spinning

It jerks when attempting the rinse agitation.

And jerks again at the start of the spin cycle. Not even an inch of spinning.

Appears as if something is stopping it from spinning.

Thank you.

LG washing machine: LG WM2487HWM won't drain, OE error appears. Drain pump was replaced.

Sun, 25 Jan 2026 16:55:13 -0700

Hi,

My LG front loader washer would not go into the drain stage of the washing cycle.

First there were noises coming from a drain pump, then it sat for a while and displayed OE error. No drain or spin happened.

As many posts suggested, I checked the drain filter (it was clean), hoses and replaced the drain pump with a brand new one.

I then tried Rinse+Spin and Speed Wash cycles with no clothes, to confirm that it got fixed, but to no avail.

It again stopped on the Drain/Spin stage and displayed the OE error after sitting for a while, no loud noises were coming from the new pump though.

I then went through a diagnostic run, by pressing Soil Level and Spin + Power, albeit with the same result - no drain occurred.

What else could I do, please?

Thank you!

LG washing machine: Water pours out of the drain pump filter

Thu, 01 May 2025 13:29:26 -0700

I have an LG washer model WM3400CW.

Whenever I clean the drain pump filter, I get just a little water from the mini hose, but a lot of water pouring out when I unscrew the drain filter. Is that not supposed to happen?

Does it indicate there's a problem with the mini hose? The mini hose does not seem to be clogged - I probed it with a long zip tie and squirted water into it with a turkey baster. When I used the turkey batter, the water came out of the filter opening (filter was removed at the time.)

Appreciate your help!

LG washing machine: starts to spin, but then stops

Mon, 24 Mar 2025 08:39:18 -0700

i believe its w17400cw is the top load type.. it starts to spin, but then stops. it goes clockwise counterclockwise, clockwise counterclockwise as it starting up, but it’s like it doesn’t have enough power to start the actual spin so after it goes, left right left right doing some testing on its own I can reach underneath the washer and spin it by hand and get it going, and then it will start the wash but then during the cycle, it will stop to fill up with water or whatever it may be and then it doesn’t have the energy to spin again it will try to start spinning and will only If I were to reach under the washer once again and help it start spinning, I start helping it and making it go fast then it will continue, but then once again some point During the wash, it will stop again and do the same thing

LG washing machine: My LG top loader drum doesnt turn when washing.

Sun, 07 Jul 2024 00:09:08 -0700

I’m not sure but should the drum turn when washing? It does turn when in spin cycle. Also, when the machine is off and empty, does the agitator spin freely by hand as mine does?

LG washing machine: Why is my machine getting an OE error between each cycle

Tue, 01 Aug 2023 16:09:37 -0700

Hi, my LG front load washer/dryer won’t complete a full wash. It stops with an error message ‘OE’ at the end of the washing cycle, I then turn it off and change it to rinse and spin only and it rinses but then same thing happens at the end of the rinse cycle and so on. Obviously something wrong with the drainage, no kinked hose, clean filter and the pump is working because it will drain the water away once turned off and the cycle changed manually to the next step. Is this an issue with the computer….?

Hello everyone,

Any suggestions out there on what could be the cause of a grinding noise while on rinse cycle, it appears to make the noise while “sensing” it makes this noise on all cycles except speed wash. The washer is only 2 years old. Thanks all!
