Where is the pump filter on an lg washer?
The PRIMARY filter for discharged water in most front loaders is located under the opening of the washer behind a small 'door'. There is usually a small tube which you will need to pull the plug from and drain about 2 cups of water into a bucket BEFORE you remove the filter to clean it.
After you unscrew the filter which is mounted from front-to-back and clean it out, replace both filter piece and plug and replace the small drain tube.
Close the access door and operate your machine.
* Clean this filter every month or especially after washing heavy lint-producing materials.
I have a LG frontload washer model #wm2496hsm.
Um u shouldnt take anything apart if you cant get it back tigether first rule of thumb secondly your description of dispenser doesnt work isnt enough to go buy. Im going to assume the detergent didnt flow in and i will assume u are using tide sport. My guess would be the detergent is too thick to syphin out assuming all that. Try mixing with half water first. Secondly look at the wiring diagram and find the colors of the wires going to each valve then hook hoses up from that valve to the part of the dispenser that has the writing of what your hooking up. Common sense goes a long way when fixing things and or braking them
How do I fix a drain error on my LG front load washer?
Hello. I\'ve had 3 drain errors on 2 LG washers. 1 was a clogged filter. The other two were failed drain pumps. The drain filter is behind the little plastic door on the lower left corner of the front of the washer. Pop the door off with a flathead screwdriver, and unscrew the gray knob behind it. WARNING: All of the water in the tub WILL come gushing out when you do this. Have something ready to soak it up. Expect several gallons of smelly water and prepare accordingly. Once the knob is unscrewed you can pull the filter out. If you are lucky, you\'ll find it stuffed with the most disgusting detritus on earth. If you are unlucky, you need a new drain pump. Suspect this if your pump sounds like a box of broken rocks or if it makes no sound at all. The drain pump is located inside the washer near the place where you pulled the drain filter. For both of the failures I\'ve seen the plastic impeller on the pump has failed and spins freely on the shaft. I got the replacement parts from RepairClinic. To change the pump I pulled the (now drained) washer away from the wall and leaned it backwards so I could work from underneath. Don\'t drop it on your hands or brain. I seem to recall that the only tools required were a phillips head screwdriver, pliers for the hose clamps, and band-aids for the sharp metal edges. Best of luck.
I have a Top Loader LG WT4801CW Washing Machine. Nothing comes on!
Hi, you could try locating the water filter and checking & cleaning it out plus shine a torch down the hole to check for any objects stuck in the pump blades such as hairclips, coins etc. Make sure you have a tray/container /towels etc beneath the filter opening to catch the water and use the drain tube first (if supplied) to drain water slowly into your container. If that's not it, try checking the drain tube and drain itself for any blockages. Good luck from England!
LG washer tE error code
A "tE" error code is more than likely the "thermistor". Supposedly can't be serviced by untrained individuals (thus the directions to call for service) but the thermistor can be found easily by tilting the machine on its back. It is mounted to the back of the drum housing. I removed mine after getting a "tE" error...cleaned and replaced...no problems since! No screws needed to be removed. My thermistor is a small, round, black rubber grommet with the metal sensor pushed through the center. I removed the entire grommet. It easily pops back into place.
