Motor starts and stops three times before it takes off and has this raddle like something is hitting on the impellor. I've had it all apart, read through hours of threads, repaired 3 broken wires in under front cover, pulled the motor and oiled the shaft on both ends with 3 in 1 20w oil, it no longer have the LE code.

I had the same problem and it was the wiring in the door. The wiring was stuck to the "tar" type insulation on the door and one had melted and was broken-spliced and fixed wiring and insulated all wiring with lots of tape and now it works fine.

Well done by resolving this problem. The other way to avoid the siphoning problem through the drain hose is adding an air gap valve/connector (available at any hardware store). You can use it even if you don't have a garbage disposal in your kitchen sink. That will assure that you have the proper height of the drain hose.
Hope this helps!

The LE error code can mean that the impeller is damaged or there is some debris blocking the the sump area underneath the filter or the wash motor has failed. In that order.
Remove the spray arm and filter (9 phillips screws) - inspect impeller for damage, with flashlight, look everywhere for debris (watch out for broken glass!) Reassemble and test.
If problems continue, schedule as service call focused on the wash pump/motor.
Good Luck!

No recalls at this point. the repair man is correct. the circulation motor is damaged.
You should know that, this model has many issues that we deal with on this site that concern this (LE) trouble code. The circulation motors are not reliable in this model.

I have this sometimes where E1 is reported and the pump remains on. The following voodoo has worked for me.
1) Make sure there is not a real drain problem.
2) Cancel any cycle or turn the power button off then on.
3) Run a rinse cycle (15 minutes).
4) If pump continues to run, turn off the power to the dishwasher, let stand for a minute, then repeat steps 2-3. If still not working, leave power off over night and leave the door open then try again.
In each iteration, it is important to curse your LG product and/or threaten it with replacement.
