drain hose was full of cracks
Slide out double stack unit, take the back off, stand on my head and reach in to remove hose clamo off pump hose. slide new hose on and clamp, but back on, and slide washer/dryer stack back in to place.
Used Youtube to look for a set of repair instructions. From start to end 35 min.
The difficult part was getting the door back on. Only 1 Youtube video I watched stated Do not remove the 2 center screws at the top. Wish I had seen that video first.
1 tilt washer back 2 remove cover plate screw from front of drain filter access panel. 3 Remove cover plate and remove 2 more mounting screws . 4 go below washer and pull down sliding clip and move pump assembly back. 5 remove wires and 3 mounting screws around pump housing 6 Swap pump and re-attch wires
Washing machine stopped purging water from drum to hose
Do not pay a service company to come to your house to make this fix!!! If you have common sense, simple tools, a phone camera and some mini zip ties you can do this!
After watching a couple YouTube videos on installing a new motor I had the confidence to start the job. My biggest worry was I'd forget where a screw/part went so I took a lot of pictures as I disassembled. I also laid all the parts out on a table reflective of where they belonged on the machine. I learned washers aren't rocket science - YOU CAN DO THIS. The most difficult part of the fix was my washer was a different model so much of the caging was completely different than YouTube disassembly, but once I got into the machine it was fairly identical. Easily popped out the old, broken motor and inserted the new LG certified part. Reassembled in 1/2 the time of disassembly and my machine works like new:) Hoping to get another 10+ years out of this washer.
Thanks PartsSelect for the high quality certified LG part. Very nice quality and weight.
I followed the video. Everything worked exactly as described. i ran a quick cycle and everything seemed to be fine. Started a wash and the machine was going fine but stopped, and wouldn't drain. I thought that maybe it might be the Rotor Position Sensor assembly, which I had already purchased just in case.But first i drained the machine and checked out the pump filter. Plugged solid. I'm guessing when the pump went there must have been a lot of lint and debris in the machine. something you might want to check out, after that repair. Thanks. you guys saved me a couple of hundred dollars
I followed the video and it was quite simple. There was an extra sheet metal screw at the bottom of the front panel which kept it from coming free of the three tabs. On the two pump wite connectors I made a mental note that the black wires were on top. The repair also fixed the lack of water flow through the degeterent dispenser. I was afraid of putting the tub seal back in place as a pro struggled with it when it was new and under warranty. It really was no problem at all. Take some phone pics along the way boosted my confidence.
After reading thru previously posts by other people, I started: 1) Took pictures of inside door, the hook that involve with the handle and the hinge. So they would be very helpful as needed later. 2) Removed the whole door from the combo and lied it down, 3) Disassembled the door and took a few more pictures, 4) Replaced the handle, 5) Took a look at the picture of the hook in (1) then jammed the hole with a piece of card board that cut to fit the hole. Used tape to secure the card board. Made sure the hook was secured/tighten. (This step is very important because it will make the spring works with the handle properly later!) 6) Reassembled the door, 7) Removed the card board from the hole in step (5). If the hook was tighten as before you start, it will be ok. Meaning the spring was resting properly on the inner door behind the handle (If the hook is not tighten then you have to redo steps (3), (5) and (6) again), and 8) Made sure the handle and the hook were working properly. I think If you follow the steps above it will be easier and faster to replaced the handle!
I took the washer completely apart and ordered any parts that looked worn and put it back together. It’s working like new and will last for a few years
Removed the door by undoing two hex nuts. Then removed the plastic cover over the glass and attached to the metal door frame. Broken part easily came out. But putting back together took two phone calls to you and finally getting the video from you that showed that the tension on the door spring was induced by the attachment of the outer plastic piece. The the spring worked as it should and I could easily return the door to it's place on the machine. I now know how to fix this when it breaks the next time.
