    LG WM 14316FD Front Loader Washer



    Machine displays error 'UE' normally with five minutes of washing left (spin will be displayed). Reduced the load and machine finished washing ok. Same error occured next day.

  • Anonymous Dec 24, 2007

    I got the UE when doing a bulky load with 2 incompatible items, a tightly woven cotton mattress pad and a very loosely woven cotton blanket. While both were light when dry, the loosley woven item, when wet, held much more water weight than the other, leading to the UE error. I googled the error, got these comments and split the load. The LG washer knew exactly where it left off. Spun one item off to perfection and did the same for the second. No solution necessary. I read the UE code as User Error!

    Look the troubleshooting page #21 onhttp://www.washermanual.com/lg/wm1814cw/... - the error occur when the load is too small or out of balance.

For "ue" an unbalanced load is sensed three times, re-adjust your load in the machine.

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.

I just read on the LG home page about the UE code (I did put a small fleece jumper and a pair of winter gloves in the machine and got this code).
On the page it sais that the code means that there is an unbalance in the machine. Just try to put more small items in it an start again.
In the manual they give the example that if you just put a bathroom rug or a robe in the machine it may give unbalance and the UE-code.
Good Luck!

Hi,

You know what works great for a LG washing machine that gives an UE error the whole day.

You pick it up as high as you can and then let it drop on the cement. Works great now. No more error UE.
I must say I feel much better now. No more strees because of this UE error.

Tomorrow I will look for another make that work all the time.

  • Lupi Robinson Apr 20, 2016

    Absolutely correct. In what universe is it ok that in order for a machine to work correctly, the owner must put in an even number of items of the same weight and distribute them exactly evenly? This is not a consumer problem. It is a problem with the design and manufacture of the machine.

It could also be that the washer is not level. Make sure it is reasonably level and does not wobble, and try it again.
