20 Most Recent LG WM-2077C Front Load Washer - Page 6 Questions & Answers

An UE Error Code is indicative of a “Unbalanced Error”. This indicates that the drum is not spinning in a smooth rotation. It may be necessary to rearrange the load in the drum. Also you have mentioned that the drum with full load has no such problem. It means that the drum cannot manage its weight in that position. So the problem might b adjustable easily. Try to remove the top panel and check for any slight movement in the position of the drum. Leaving it continue this way might increase the probability for the error to be repeated with the load. Will add some links related to internal diagrams of this model when i find some that might help you to check the drum inside.


Good luck with the machine.Please do rate my solution and post comments and results.

ue is (imbalanced error) cause. the load is to small,washer is tilted, laundry is gathered to one side, non distributed things are put into the washer

first make sure the shipping bolts were removed from the machine, then make sure it is level, then if it still shakes, take your fist and hit it on your head... jk, if you have it on a wood floor, or your floor isnt 100% sturdy, you cant do anything about it besides using anti vibration pads. they wont do that much tho.

This is a bad motor position sensor. Since the machine cannot tell what position the motor is in it just spins back and forth trying to figure it out. Often an error code will pop up after 15-20 minutes.

A technician should be able to replace this part relatively cheaply. Hope this helps, please rate my solution.

LE is a locked motor error. Not to worry as 95% of the time this is just a bad hall sensor (motor position sensor). It is very easy for a technician to replace and the cost is very small.

IE is an inlet error indicating that the machine has not filled up to the correct water level within 10 minutes. Could be a bad inlet valve, low water pressure or a problem with the inlet hoses (do not use anti flood hoses with these machines, use only the included fill hoses).

It sounds like all of your problems lie with the water fill. If the dispenser compartments do not get water added to them then the soap, bleach, and/or softener will not dispense properly. Then it will still be present and may dispense on the next load instead.

It is also VERY important that you use an HE (high efficiency) detergent and the correct amount (2-3 tablespoons per load). Otherwise you could end up with oversudsing issues which can also keep the bleach from dispensing properly.

Also make sure to not use GEL bleach, GEL detergent or GEL softener as they are too heavy and will not dispense properly. If all of these recommendations do not help then there is a definite issue with the incoming water supply from the inlet valves (especially if the IE errors continue). In that case you will need a technician to check the inlet valves inside the machine.

This means the electronic water valve has gone bad and will need replaced by a technician. Hope this helps, please rate my solution.

not draining,,check your drain pump filter...

If the water is running down the outside at the front of the m/c, then you probably need new door seal.
If however it is coming down the front from the top, then it is coming from your dispenser, check for blockage

It depends, I use liquid so the dispenser drawer does not get a build of of soap and cause blockage problems. But if you decide to use power that is fine too, but I recommend that you take the drawer out at least once every fortnight to give it a clean.

hi The drive belt (or belts) of a washing machine may become worn or damaged, causing noisy operation or stopping the washer entirely. A damaged drive belt is easy to replace. Remove the back panel of the washer to gain access to the belt. To remove the belt:

Step 1: Loosen the bolt on the motor bracket and move the motor to put slack in the belt.

Step 2: Remove the old belt and stretch a new one into place on the pulleys.

Step 3: To put tension on the new belt, use a hammer handle or a short pry bar to push the motor into position while you tighten the bolt in the adjustable bracket. The belt should have about 1/2 inch deflection when you press on it at the center point, midway between the pulleys. If the belt is too loose, it will slip on the pulleys, causing the machine to malfunction. If the belt is too tight, it will wear very quickly and will probably become so hot that it will start to smoke or smell.

Loose pulleys can also cause problems. Most pulleys are fastened to shafts with setscrews around the hub of the pulley. These screws must be tight or else the pulley or belt will slip. The resulting malfunction may seem to be caused by a faulty motor, but it can be corrected by tightening the pulleys and adjusting the belt. For this reason, always check the belts and pulleys before working on the motor.

You may have something inside the drain pump and the pump fins are just knocking the large debris around.  You will need to disassemble the drain pump to see what's inside it.  This will require a call from a qualified LG technician.

Check to make sure that the filters in the water valves are not clogged up.  Go behind the machine, turn off the water supply and disconnect the hoses on the machine side.  Look inside the water valves and check the filter screens to make sure they're clean.  Get a large bucket and open the water valve to clear out the hoses and make sure you have good water flow coming out of the hoses.  If both of those situations are cleared up, your machine should work properly.

Check your filter,and see .!!!water may not be pumping out fast enough!!

Use a 1/2 cup of vinegar and pour it onto the rubber door seal.  Let it sit awhile then wipe dry.  The stains are very hard to get off once they're on.  You can also use baking soda to remove the odors.

Clean th filter in the front of tha machine. Than take an OLD towel and run a hot wash with chlorox.
After that you run it again with vinegar and that should relief your problem.
i have an LG too.

UE code is an "unbalance error". Believe it or not, it is possible to unbalance a front load style washing machine. Usually caused by trying to wash smaller loads where the drum spins to try to distribute the weight evenly. With less laundry, you cannot distribute enough weight evenly around the drum and sometimes will cause an unbalanced load. If your problem is not a simple loading issue, it could be the balance sensor, loose wiring, or possibly the main control board. I hope this helps.

Your motor sensor has failed.  Try unplugging the unit and wait 5 minutes before plugging it back on.  If that fails, you will need a qualified LG technician to help you.

Something has gotten into the fill tube hose of the tub.  You will need to pull the drawer out and look down in the dispenser assembly to see if there is something blocking the hose.  

you need to replace your water valves one is leaking
