I have a 2004 lg washer WM-0532HW . when i went to go use it yesterday it would not turn on. it would not do anything. i checked the plugs and the fuse box in my home everything is fine so its something with the washer its self. what could it be? does the washer have a fuse in it?

CE is an error stating that you have a problem with you board or possibly the stator on your unit. Either way your going to need service. You can ohm out your stator to see if it is the problem.
Check the back harness, maybe it has come loose, remove the back panel and it is the blue connector.

We had the OE message come up and did the above procedures...that didn't fix it. I removed the dual pump modules (they come off in one piece...one is the recirculating pump, the other is the drain pump). Turns out, the drain pump impeller design sucks. Even though it turned when I put power to the pump, that doesn't mean your pump isn't bad. Once it is under load pumping water, the impeller can slip where the pin connects to it from the motor. We replaced the motor for $60 and that fixed the problem. Our unit is at least three years old and we have a family of four, so it does get used quite often. Nobody told us about the filter at the bottom of the unit and I figure if we knew this ahead of time, we probably could have avoided the impeller issue...but it is still a sub-par designed motor/impeller. The new one I ordered looks like an updated design so I don't see this happening again. It is quite easy to remove and replace the pump, btw.

i was not home when it stopped working so i dont know what code it said. i did call lg and the tech told me to hold down the knob for 10 secs and then plug it back in and try it again. so i did that and when i did that smoke starting coming out of the what i believe is the filter assembly. the tech told me to unplug it and have it service. my question is if smoke was coming out of the filter assembly does that mean that is bad and needs replaced?
