Washing Machine LG WD-1049 C

probably an article of clothing stuck in fill hose from soap dispenser to tub

Replace drain pump

The middle compartment is not getting water due to inoperative solenoid valve connected to the pipe leading to the middle compartment. Either the valve is not getting supply from the controller or the valve is burnt. This can be checked by using multimeter connected across the valve while the machine is running.

Regular cleaning maintenance is required to prevent odor build up inside the machine. The LG WM2688HWM has a TUB CLEAN feature, a special cycle for the cleaning of the inside of the washer. This cycle uses a high water level with higher spin speed.

1. Remove any clothing or items from the washer and close the door.
2. Open the dispenser drawer and add liquid chlorine bleach ONLY to the bleach compartment.
3. Close the dispenser drawer slowly to prevent the bleach from spilling.
4. Turn on the machine then press the EXTRA RINSE button for 3 seconds.
5. Press the START/PAUSE button to start.
6. Leave the door open to dry the washer door opening, door seal and door glass after the cycle is complete.

Most soap drawers have a plastic latch which needs to be pressed to release it.

You will find that there is a ball of soap congealed in the back of the dispenser drawer

You will need to have a qualified LG technician come out and see what the problem is.  You may have a water level switch issue.

There is a problem with the dispenser assembly where the drawer enters.  You will have to have it checked by a qualified LG technician to see what the problem is.

I have this problem as well.. All washing machines manufactured nowadays are energy effficient, which means that they don't use as much water as the older models. This can result in a build-up of bacteria in the top part of the washing machine, which is clogging up the bit where the water comes through to flush the fabric conditioner into the drum. What I have to do every so often, is to take the top off the washing machine and clean out the layer of black slime that has built up, blocking the holes where the water goes into the washing machine. Another contributory factor is that the usual program used is a 40 degree wash, which is not hot enough to completely flush the machine through. Manufacturers recommend running a 90 degree wash once a month with just washing powder in iit, no clothes. Hope this is some help

you need to clean above where the drawer goes in, the water jet holes get blocked and spray sidewards. also you can reduce the water pressure at the supply tap to a fast trickle this will avoid jets of water flowing over and forward of the tray.

The detergent dispenser is located above the detergent drawer. A water pipe is connected to it and water entrance and distributed to drawer's cells (following the programmed cycle) by a lever's movement (part of the dispenser). The lever movement is controlled by two solenoids that received their power from the timer. By opening upper machine's cover you will have an access to the dispenser. Disconnect the power cable from the machine before moving to next test !!!! Look first that they are not any disconnected wires. Move manually dispenser's lever and see if water running to all cells (depend on your movement). In case it doesn't work properly remove the unit from the machine and try to clean it (I hope it will help, otherwise you should replace the unit). In case it works properly (manually) - you should test by a multi-tester solenoid's resistance. the one that doesn't have a resistance measurement should be replaced. Good luck !!
