    Mine is an LG LDF 7810ST and is also giving an error of LE, There is no LE error code listed in the manual.

    I tried resetting it to run the cycle again as you cannot just drain the machine, but it gets to a certain part of the cycle, where I think it should start draining the water, and makes a louder than normal noise (ticking sort of) and then beeps a number of times and stops.

    Had exactly the same problem. Poured boiling water over the inside of the door, which obviously ended up in the bottom. Programed for the "quick wash" and low and behold she worked! I now have a load of wine glasses and coffee cups being washed successfully, after hand washing the majority of the load! Great solution rather than replacing the pump motor, I would say!

    Same exact problem. This dishwasher is only about 4 months old! Hopefully something else besides the motor so soon? Very frustrating to hand wash dishes for people every day!

    PIECE OF JUNK. SAME LE ERROR ISSUE REPEATEDLY. HORRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE. NEVER BUY LG.

LE stands for "Locked Motor". It means the main pump motor is bad.

HOW TO FIX LE ERROR CODE ON SAMSUNG DISHWASHER DMR78AHS

An LE error code on your dishwasher stands for "LEaking."

There is, what I call, a drip pan on the bottom that the water is dripping into. Remove your dishwasher and take off the lower the side panels to get a look inside the drip pan. If you have water in there, try to find out where it's coming from.

If there are no signs of water, tip the dishwasher over on its side and remove the plastic panel on the bottom of the dishwasher. Once removed, you can disconnect the connector to the leak sensor (it's mounted upside-down, with 4 wires coming out of it. If I remember right, the wires are blue and red).

Flip the dishwasher back upright and plug it in and see if your LE error code pops back on. If it pops back on, then you have a bad board. If it doesn't, then you either have a leak, or the "fangs" on the leak detector are shorting out, somehow.

Good luck!

Im receiving an OE error code on my LG Dishwasher Model LDF7811st. The machine runs for a little bit and then it dings a few times with the "OE" code and stops running. HELP please

The LG error code OE simply means "the pump is blocked". Presumably the water isn't being emptied properly. As with all error codes it is possible that there is a cause other than the exact description in the error code explanation but basically this error means as far as the washing machine is concerned it thinks the water isn't pumping out. A pump, or filter blockage is the most common cause but it could be caused by other faults such as a faulty pump, or even a blockage in the drain hose or somewhere else in the system etc.


LG themselves have some information on this error code..

LE error message on the panel

Depending on the serial # of the dishwasher it may need a new wire harness and inner door liner.

LE is a motor circuit error.

ERROR CODE "TE"

The MOSt common reason for a "tE" error code is the temperature of the hot water from the hot water heater is greater thant 145 degrees (F)
Adjust your hot water heater down and measure the temp at the kictchen tap.
Good Luck!
