An LE error code on the washer's display indicates that the motor is locked, possibly due to a heavy wash load. Large and heavy sized loads will put a strain on the motor, causing the LE code to occur. Performing a reset on the washer will normally resolve this error with a reduced load size.Apr 25, 2018

SOURCE: Indesit front loading washing machine error code

i am a recently retired engineer of 20 years, but this sounds like (based on the info given) a heater element fault, after the machine fills up and agitates a few times the heater should start, check the heater for open circuit, replace if needed, of course it just could be a wire off? if i have helped rate me please

SOURCE: Front Loading LG Washing Machine leaves smelly sludge in wash tub

This machine has a tub clean feature that you're supposed to run with bleach. I did this and it helped the smell s bit. Recently we had an error code and the repair man that came to fix it gave me some good tips. His experience has been that the smell is from too much soap causing build up in the seal and along the tub. His suggestion was to cut back on the amount of he detergent (he said a tablespoon is sufficient). His company recommends using a product called Whirlout (you can buy it at Home Depot). It was originally meant to clean scum out of hot tub jets. Apparently if you call LG they will recommend this product, but haven't bothered to suggest it in the owner's manual. I was told to put one to two capfuls directly into the tub (not the detergent bay) and run the tub clean cycle. I used it last night and it worked - no more musty, yucky smell!

SOURCE: LG front load washing machine water leaks with heavy loads

If your water is leaking with heavy loads, the first thing you want to check is the gasket (door boot) attached to the tub. Look for holes or rips in the bellows part(where the water settles) and around where it contacts the door. Any nicks or holes will cause leakage. Also, check the glass dome on the door towards the bottom. If it has dirt or hair buildup on it, it will leak with any pressure on the door.

SOURCE: what does the code 5d mean on my washing machin???

5d is actually SD
it means SUDS
you have suds detected in the pump
Your using too much soap and the machine cannot rinse it
try one load with out any soap
from that load on you should not be using any more that a table spoon per load

SOURCE: LG model WM2277HW front load washing machine,

The 'LE' error message indicates the control board has detected that the motor is either not turning, or has locked up for some reason. Monitoring the motor is the job of the hall effect sensor board which constantly determines the direction and speed of the motor and feeds that information back to the control board. If there is a problem between what the motor should be doing and what the hall effect sensor says the motor is doing, the 'LE' will be displayed and the cycle will be stopped.
1) in my experience, sometimes this proves to be intermitent, and upon unplugging and waiting for 5 minutes does not seem to resurface again...
2)Motor lock can be caused by several things from a loose connector, to a bad motor, or even the hall effect sensor failing or dislodging from it's mount.
this could prove to be very challenging to somebody who does not know what they are working with, i suggest if the problem is not intermitent, call a tech.. hope this helps.

I have an lg washing machine model wm2301hr. About 15 minutes into the wash cycle I got an error message EE. Since I couldn't resolve the error I pushed drain/spin and water leaked onto the floor.

First if the error code is "EE" then unplugging unit from power<waiting a few minutes and then plugging it back in might reset control board.
Second, are you sure it is "EE" and not "tE" or "fE"?
good luck

I have an LG front load washing machine model number wm2496hsm with the code ee coming up on display what's wrong with it and how do I fix it

EE - Stands for EEPROM ERROR
EEPROM is out of order. Displayed only when the START/PAUSE button is first pressed in the QC Test Mode.
The machine's program is stored in the EEPROM area of the microcontroller unit, when it is out of order the machine stops functioning.

Front load washer had code OE. Fixed the drain now it has the code EE. But the first E has the top missing from the E. Help

That would be a tE (thermister error). The thermister is located right next to or, on some models, is part of the heating element. It is nearly impossible to replace without taking the front off the washer. It is located right at the front of the outer wash tub. (just below the gray rubber door gasket)
