LG WM0642HW 4.0 cu. ft. Front Load Washer FACTORY REFURBISHED FOR USA Logo
Allen Posted on Feb 28, 2013

Have WM0642HW washwer. Constantly getting dE code during each load. Hearing grinding during cycle just before dE display.

During every cycle I am getting dE alert several times. Before the alert I am hearing a grinding sound, almost like bearing or such. Sometimes it also sounds like a loss of some type of pressure. Any ideas?

Open the filter and you will find coins or some form of objects that has gone in to the wash by mistake unseen!! empty out the filter and put on wash and it will be fine! if there is water in the drum make sure you put bucket that will fit under filter to catch the water when opening the filter! or if there is a rubber tube you can drain water out from this till empty but this will take time! good luck and dont get wet

SOURCE: Natural gas to propane conversion LG dryer

You posted under a combo washer / dryer WD-4343RHD.
For a gas dryer, conversion is to replace Nat gas orifice with LP one (the LP orifice has a air hole going cross ways through it) plus screwing the regulator blocker (brass slot head screw on top of the gas valve) all the way down (if you missed that step, I would expect your symptoms). Also, make sure you have a good vent with strong air flow at the outdoor outlet. If poor vent, short cycling may occur.

SOURCE: LG WM0642HW washer gives error during spin cycle and stops.

I have this problem and you can find the solution on this same web page by searching. It is likely the Hall Sensor that needs to be replaced (see proflevy posting on Jul 16, 2008). According to the postings, it is from soap build up on the sensor and replacing it costs $18 for the part and is easy (many responses on this). I am waiting for the part and will try to fix mine soon.

SOURCE: dE code on WM0642HW TROMM washing machine

HI, this is a Door Open Error.

Possible Causes are..-

* Door not all the way closed
* Loose electrical connections at door switch and pwb assembly(Control Board)
* Door switch assembly is out of order(Miss aligned)
* Gasket on door may be creased in

Most common issue here will be a defective door lock switch. check all causes before replacing the switch.

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.

Water does not drain

Is the drain line clear? Also sounds like time on water inlet is running to long. Front loaders don't use that much water.

Maytag neptune tl makes grinding sound and stops at 33 minutes in normal mode and at 24 minutes in quick wash mode


Hello djlampl,

With the lowest spin cycle setting I enter spin cycle in Quick Wash around the 21 minute mark. But first question is do you hear the grinding noise with the tumblers rotating during the wash/agitate cycle?

If you start a spin only cycle do you hear the grinding noise?

Does the washer error code out with an error code to the display? Codes such as dC, uC, Lr?, I assume the machine type is a FAV6800AW is that correct?

Any additional info will help in troubleshooting…..Rich

Assuming the machine type is a FAV6800A/FAV9800A here are some handy links;

The Service Manual for reference. Sears Parts Direct for reference.
