I have an LG washing machine. It has a PF code. Simple things don't fix it

As LG states in troubleshooting section,
If your unit is displaying a "PF" error code, it means you've experienced a power failure. This may occur if the power supply to the washing machine is interrupted during a cycle from a power outage. To fix this, simply restart the washing cycle

Wm3431 pf code

The PF error code indicates a power failure. This might occur while machine is working due to an external disturbance like a storm or power outage in the area. If the PF error code is displayed, turn off the power to the washer, unplug it for 10 seconds, and restart the wash cycle. If the error code continues to present after these steps have been taken, then the washer may require service.

PF(Power Failure) error appears each time the washer starts.

PF simply means there was a power failure since the last time you used the machine.
To clear it - simply power cycle it.
