Mark December 22, 2021 for Model Number LG WT5270CW Top Loader Washer Washer was leaking water onto floor. Found that Bleach bulb under solenoid had a pin hole. Replaced inlet valve bank (purchased from your company). Now have an accumulation of water in detergent tray when unit is off. Determined it is hot water. It stops if I turn off hot water supply line. Would pressure valve cause this when unit is off?
1 Answer Mark, I would start with cleaning the parts of the detergent tray. This is siphoned out not an electrical part. Read More...

Gloria July 09, 2021 for Model Number WT1201CW Im getting a PE error code. After some intense research Im thinking its the pressure switch that needs replacing. Just want confirmation before I purchase the part. Thank you so much for your help. Gloria
1 Answer Hello Gloria, the code refers to a possible faulty pressure switch 6501EA1001R, the switch can be tested with a multimeter, pins 1-3 should have about 22 ohms, also check the pressure switch's airline tubing is clear and the tub fitting for the tubing is not blocked. Read More...
Jesse March 19, 2021 for Model Number LG wt5680hva I have replaced the clutch assembly, pulsator, and inner basket hub. The washer agitates and spins but during the wash it makes a grinding sound. I also noticed that no matter what cycle I put it on, the tub fills up completely every time which seems like its over loading it. Also sometimes it gives me the LE code which says the motor is seized. Could it be a weak motor or a sensor?
1 Answer Jesse, Based on the information provided I would check the rotor and stator assemblies. Check the rotor for cracks, and check the shifter and driveshaft assembly. Read More...

Bennett September 08, 2019 for Model Number lg wt1501cw We have an lg wt1501cw. The water, even in the extra rinse mode, is very minimal. Can you adjust the pressure sensor valve to increase water supply? Thanks
1 Answer Bennett, there would not be a way to adjust the pressure sensor as it is pre-programmed into the control. Newer units are designed for high efficiency and will only fill the water so high to allow the pulsator to operate properly. Read More...
Blhwwc March 13, 2018 for Model Number WT5070CW The hot water is hot at the inlet line but the water inside the wash machine is cold. Any advise. Seems there should be a selector valve that may have gone bad.
1 Answer BLHWWC, With this issue, it will most likely be caused by a control board that is sending power to the cold water valve rather than to the hot water side. The control board would be the most likely cause. Read More...
Kathleen September 02, 2017 for Model Number WT5270CW My washer keeps leaking water after the washer is done continuously. Is it the inlet valve or sensor possibly?
1 Answer Kathleen, This would be a water valve issue with the unit continuing to allow water to come in when the unit is off. Read More...
Jerry January 02, 2017 for Model Number WT5001CW I've noticed on my top load LG that: 1) the water level is much higher than normal, 2) the Cycle TIMER takes a lot longer to count to zero. Perhaps with so much more water being added, it slows the countdown process. Can you help with both questions? Do I need to change the Water Pressure Switch? Thank you!
1 Answer Jerry, For the unit getting too much water in it then this would likely be caused by a faulty pressure switch. The part number for the pressure switch would be 6501EA1001R. You will also want to check to make sure that the water valve is not allowing water to flow in when the unit is not calling for water. Read More...
