LG Washer has UE error code, I know for a fact that the clothes in it are not off balance.

LG washer has UE error code, EVERY time it tries to enter spin cycle, so washer will never spin. It begins to try to start spinning but then powers the motor down. I know for a fact that the clothes in it are not off balance. Washer will run fine with nothing in it, but as soon as you put some weight on the drum it will not work. I got the machine used, and it has never finished a cycle without doing the UE error code. I've replaced the shock absorbers and the hall sensor with no change. I'm starting to wonder if the inner tub may be warped, but I dont see any defect in the inner tub in the front. does anyone have any ideas?

Testimonial: "I finally got the balance sensor yesterday and installed it, and it fixed the problem! I would of installed the sensor alot sooner, but at repair clinic they have that part number listed as being a 'Humidity Sensor'. I couldn't understand why there would be a Humidity sensor in that particular spot, from experience it did seem to be a balance sensor, but like I said repairclinic.com said it was a humidity sensor so I was hesitant to replace it at first. So I changed the Hall sensor and the shock absorbers first with no effect. i'm glad I got it fixed, because after messing with it for so long and all the stress it gave me, I was about to use it as target practice haha. thanks"

    I was thinking that was a balance sensor, but the parts list says that is a Humidity sensor??

    Can you provide a part number for that balance sensor part and what model LG washer was it for. (We are trying to correct a perpetual UE code for a WT5001CW).

SOURCE: "UE" error code LG washer wm0642hw

This is an Imbalance code. Your issue may be with:

  • The load is too small
  • The appliance is tilted
  • Laundry is gathered to one side
  • Non-distributed things are put into the drum
Try adjusting the load size, and make sure the unit is level.

SOURCE: My lg Tromm front load

these units have had alot of problems especially if it is on a pedistal ...they won't admit this is a problem but i have been a lg servicer for over 4 years now and see it everyday ...the unit has a stator on the rear of the tub and on the stator is a device called a hall sensor that goes bad very often... it is what controls the spped and balance of the tub..if the load starts getting unbalanced the hall sensor will tell the motor controller to slow the speed down... most likely this is your problem.... good luck please vote

An ue code flashing

Hello

UE is an imbalance error which is displayed when either the load is small or the appliance is tilted. You can also check if the washer is balanced and try unplugging the washer for 15 minutes to check if its balanced. Please get back to me if you have any other questions.

Screen reads UE? what is UE?

UE stands for Unbalance Error. If the washer has tried to spin numerous times, tried to redistribute the load itself between each attempt, and still not been able to get the load up to full speed without experiencing an off balance condition, it will finally stop and display the UE code. This is most often the case when a heavy / bulky item(s) are being washed and the spin speed is set very high. When washing these items, set the spin speed to low. The machine will most likely be able to handle that. If you want them spun out faster, then AFTER the washer has made it through the cycle on low speed spin do this: Turn the power back on. Without selecting any cycle, just press the spin speed button, selecting the next higher spin speed. Now press start, and your washer will just do a 14 minute or so pump and spin.
For super wet heavy loads, if you cannot even get the washer to go through a cycle on the lowest spin speed, you may have to wring a bunch of the water out of the clothes by hand before doing the 14 minute cycle thing.

Comes up with the sign UE ??

Hi

Thanks for using FixYa. The error code UE means there are some heavy clothing is loaded. Rearrange items to help balance the load. If the imbalance is heavy, the washer will make several attempts to restart the spin cycle. If an imbalance is still detected, the washer will stop and will display the error code UE. In case, if the load is small then you need to add 2-5 clothes to balance the load. If the load is out of balance then you need to rearrange the clothes to balance it. Although the Washer has an imbalance detection and correction system but if still the problem persists then it means that it is due to control error and needs to replaced preferably by a qualified service technician.

Please do rate the solution and revert for further assistance.


Thanks

UE error code

You may have a problem with the ball balance sensor.  One of the things I have noticed is when the installers deliver and set up the washers, they get a little too rough and cause a dent in the rear panel of the washer.  In the rear panel, the ball balance sensor is mounted onto the frame.  If the tub spins too wildly, it will hit the ball balance sensor causing it to go UE.  But if the back panel is pushed in too much, the tub will actually make contact with the ball balance sensor too early causing a UE error code.  You will need to have a qualified LG technician look into it.

LG WM2077CW (UE error code)

For "ue" an unbalanced load is sensed three times; re-adjust your load in the machine. What is the capacity of your machine, you could weigh your dry clothes........refer manual.

For e1, it could be a water sensor problem. Check to see if the inlet valve is okay and not clogged, water shd be in good pressure. If this is okay, open up behind after taking the plug off the wall. There is a thin tube coming from the switch area to the outlet pump area; disconnect this from the top carefully and blow into it, it should be free; if it is clogged you will hav a water level problem. Unblock and refit carefully.
