Sounds like you have a blockage here, try pouring kettle of water in and make sure goes away/remove clean soap dispenser if not and check for any obstruction in soap to drum hose.....

unplug washer for few minutes then plug in as soon as you hear a click pull on door between clicks call for service

Hi

Remove the dispenser, pour water into the opening and make sure water can get into the machine freely. Inspect the opening for soap build up. If water goes down slowly then open the washer door and check at the bottom for anything blocking the water inlet port into the washer (socks can sometimes cause a blockage).If it all checks out ok, make sure the machine is properly leveled and not leaning forward.

the tub has stabilizers on it ... remove rear panel and make sure the shocks are still attached and or not broke... if all this looks good is the unit on a pedestal if so there have been alot of problems with lg washers and pedestals.... i know your saying well they sell them with the washer as a optional feature ,but they have been giving fits to lg for the last couple of years.... if the shocks look good then most likely you have a bad hall sensor located also in the rear of machine on the part called the stator .the stator is a round device that attaches to the rear of tub and has a copper coil that goes around the entire thing... on this device is a white plasetic device called a hall sensor that measures the spped and balance of unit if unit starts getting out of balance the hall sensor will slow machine down.... good luck to you

Hello

I have a solution for this

My name is Bruce

Problem:
An occasional LE error but always a slow or no spin.
Solution:
A Red wire going to the Hall sensor was intermittent. You can test this from the main board connector down to the connector on the hall sensor by checking continuity. There is an intermediate connector down by the motor/hall sensor so you can isolate the problem even more. Problem was in the short wire harness that connects directly to the motor and hall sensor. Could not find the open point of the wire so added a new red wire and integrated it into the harness.

Hello & Welcome to FixYa

The problem seems to be with the water inlet valve that has gone bad and needs replacement. Before replacing the valve try swapping the connections and clean the inlet valve. If the valve is fine then the problem is with the pressure switch that needs replacement. Please get back to me if you have any other questions.

This is the water control valve. It should fill on either hot or cold. One of them will be good. The washer has one for hot water and one for cold.

FE Over Flow Error

Water is overflowing (water level frequency is over 213).

If FE is displayed, the drain pump will operate to drain the water automatically.

(may be too much suds ...)

WM2277HW Service Manual HERE...

Or

Locate your service manual behind the kick panel of the machine.

FE means overflow condition.

Before replacing the fill valve sand or trash may have gotten into the tube going from tub to water level switch.

So find that hose and blow it out. Remove the standing water and retry.

Thanks for using FixYa!

Code LE signals an overload to the motor. Wait 30 minutes and restart the cycle. If the code is not released, you need to call a service technician.

You may need to disconnect and clean the drain hose as well as the drain pipe. Be sure to kill the power before working on the machine.

you can go to this web site for help in this matter appliancerepairplanet.vstore.ca

That type of movement of the drum is typical of a front loader as it will be either spring or damper suspended. If no noise then as you say, not likely to be bearing but may be worth checking that all springs/dampers are attached or all have the same resistance?

there must be a broken spring in the washer or a strut bar has come loose this unit should not be doing this. as per its age alone if you are some what technical remove the lid and check all four springs are attached and all five struts in line if not have it looked at it does not cost as much as a new machine these can be the only faults so you know what your looking for it will be hard for a service maN to rip you off

best of luck


please take the time to rank this advice

and have a merry christmas

its not the filter problem.the motor is faulty and that needs replacement. you can get motor at  www.repairclinic.com to avoid circuit board damage do not try to on the machine again n again till the motor gets replaced as it can short circuit the main board too.
