LG Washing Machine Repair

1. Washing Machine Won’t Start

🔹 Check Power Supply – Ensure the power cord is plugged in and the circuit breaker isn’t tripped.
🔹 Inspect the Door/Lid Switch – If the door isn’t closing properly, the machine won’t start. Replace the lid switch if necessary.
🔹 Test the Control Panel – If buttons aren’t responding, reset the machine or check for wiring issues.

2. Washing Machine Not Draining Water

🔹 Check the Drain Hose – A clogged or kinked hose can stop water from draining. Remove blockages and straighten the hose.
🔹 Clean the Drain Pump – Foreign objects like coins or lint can block the pump. Clean it to restore drainage.
🔹 Inspect the Drain Filter – Some machines have a filter that collects debris. Remove and clean it.

3. Washer Not Spinning Properly

🔹 Balance the Load – Uneven loads can prevent spinning. Redistribute clothes evenly inside the drum.
🔹 Check the Drive Belt – A loose or broken belt can stop the drum from spinning. Replace if needed.
🔹 Test the Motor Coupling – If the motor runs but the drum doesn’t spin, the motor coupling may be broken and needs replacement.

4. Washing Machine Making Loud Noises

🔹 Inspect Shock Absorbers – Worn-out absorbers cause vibrations and noise. Replace them if necessary.
🔹 Check Bearings and Drum – If you hear grinding sounds, the drum bearings might be worn out. These require professional repair.
🔹 Tighten Loose Parts – Screws, bolts, or internal components may be loose. Tighten them carefully.

5. Water Leaking from the Washer

🔹 Check the Water Inlet Hose – Ensure hoses are securely connected and not cracked.
🔹 Inspect the Door Seal – A damaged rubber seal in front-loading washers can cause leaks. Replace if torn.
🔹 Look for Detergent Overuse – Excess soap suds can cause overflow. Use the correct detergent amount.
