How to Troubleshoot & Replace Lg AP7015078 / 6501KW2002B Washer Rotor Position Sensor Assembly

Watched the video on AppliancePartsPros.com and followed all instructions and narrowed it down to the RPSS on the backend of the bucket. Place order, replaced, and retested in same manner and rotation was fixed. 

I replaced both the wire harness and the rotor sensor. Both were so reasonably priced and with a 10+ year machine, I couldn’t go wrong by replacing both. 

YouTube advised what the possible problems could be. Ordered the parts from you and they were perfect. Repair went better than expected. Thanks 

Watched online video, ordered parts. Fixed washer. Quick and painless. 

Replaced the rotor position sensor by watching your video, it is easy to process. 

My front loader LG washing machine wasn’t working correctly. The clothes were either coming out unwashed or completely dripping. When turning the washer on it would start up like normal and the turn off a few minutes in. Initially it was not displaying an error code, this made it very difficult to diagnose. One of the kids started a load not knowing we are having issues and it started making a clunking cringing noise, when I went to investigate the EL code was up. A few YouTube videos later and I was pretty confident it was either the wiring harness or the rotor position sensor switch. Lucky it was the RPS because I ordered the wrong wiring harness. It was very easy to remove the back panel of the washer pull the stator off the back of the tub to get to the sensor. 

I ordered the Rotor Position Sensor Switch, watched the video on how to replace it, followed the instructions and in short order had a working washing machine again! It took me maybe 25 minutes to do in between a phone call or two. 

Pull rear panel, pull hub/rotor bolt. Remove 3 screws from wire keepers below the motor, remove 6 bolts securing motor, pull the motor off/replace RPS, repeat steps in the opposite order. Works perfectly now! 

Replaced rotor position sensor and rotor assembly. Let's put it this way: It took longer to get the dryer onto a dolly and out of the way; the washer onto a dolly and into the garage; my tools out and reverse this procedure. It took less than 6 minutes to swap out the parts with air and electric tools. The final tightening was done with torque wrenches. Plugged it in and: "Wah-la" DONE! Thanks to this website that offered me the videos on how to repair it and the extremely fast delivery (ordered Monday-received Thursday) I was able to do the repairs that quickly. It appears that LG makes the most sensible and easiest machines to work on! Thank-you. 

Persistent LE code despite swapping the Hall sensor. Wiring harness checked out ok from sensor and motor to the motherboard.with low resistance values and no changes with moving the wiring bundles, so I assumed no internal wiring breaks. Replaced motherboard and so far this seems to have corrected the problem.
