Lg Dryer Motor

The DC pump motor assembly powers the pump that moves water through your appliance. Replacing a worn motor helps restore proper water flow so cycles can complete and reduces issues like standing water and excessive noise.

• Drives the pump impeller to move water for draining or circulation, as designed by the appliance
• Supports proper cycle completion by clearing water from the tub or sump
• Common symptoms of a failing motor include standing water, incomplete draining/circulation, loud humming or grinding near the pump, or cycle errors
• May run intermittently, stall, or overheat as internal components wear

• Disconnect power and turn off the water supply before servicing
• Expect residual water; protect the area with towels or a shallow pan
• Note wiring connectors and hose routing; transfer any brackets, grommets, or seals from the original as needed
• Secure hose clamps and test for leaks while running a brief test cycle

The Drum Motor Assembly is an OEM part for LG dryers. It serves as the powerhouse that drives the drum, enabling it to tumble clothes during the drying cycle. This essential component ensures your dryer operates smoothly, providing the necessary torque for consistent and efficient drying performance.

Causes of failure might include wear and tear from prolonged use, overload from trying to dry heavy loads, electrical issues like short circuits, or physical damage to the motor components. 

Symptoms of a bad Drum Motor Assembly include:

• The dryer drum fails to turn, even though the dryer powers on.
• Unusual noises, such as humming or buzzing, indicating the motor is struggling.
• The dryer stops unexpectedly during cycles or won't start at all.
• Decreased drying efficiency or clothes taking longer to dry due to inconsistent drum speed.

This OEM LG part is also compatible with Sears/Kenmore.
