Top 20 LG WM-2277HW Front Load Washer Questions & Answers

Easiest start is to take the top off and check for leaks maybe using a flashlight. Top comes off by removing a couple of screws in back, the sliding it rearward about 3 inches and then lifting up. Good luck. Report back what you find. Use comments.

My guess is replace the drain pump. Inexpensive part but kinda hard to get to. Check out repair videos on parts sites or YouTube

Sounds like the bearing or the belt pulley

Change the filter alone u will receive the better result.

Suggest try same again. Modern appliances have a zillion circuit connections of which any one of them can develop a "bug". Unless it is under warranty it's usually less trouble and cost to simply replace it.

The hose from the soap drawer to the tub may be split. These hose have flexible ridges and its common for them to split inside one of the ridges.

Switch to powdered detergent. You'll be much happier in the long run. Liquid detergent leaves a residue. Eventually the residue mildews. Powered detergent leaves no residue. Plus you will solve your current issue. Also skip the softener and use plain white vinegar in its place. The vinegar helps eliminate mildew and it also helps release Dey from your clothes in the rinse cycle.

Your drain pump assembly impeller has most likely deteriorated. I just replaced the assembly on my unit. There are actually two small motor/pumps. I would recommend replacing them both. You will find the videos of how to do this on youtube. I bought the parts off of Amazon

Disconnect the LG front load washer power cord from the wall outlet. Turn off the water supply to the washer at the water spigots coming from the wall. Pull the washer 3 feet away from the wall, and disconnect the water supply hoses from the water inlet valve ports on the back of the washer. You may need a pair of channel lock pliers to loosen the hose connections. Remove the screws securing the back of the top panel to the back of the washer with a Phillips-head screwdriver. Depending upon your model, you will have either two or four screws to remove. Lift the back of the top panel up, and slide the top panel toward the rear wall, which will unhook the top panel from the clips securing the panel in the front of the washer. Lift the top panel off the washer and out of your working area.

As water goes in, it vents air out back of washer. Try adding a cup of bleach to tub, fill softener dispenser with bleach and run an empty load on the hottest setting possible. You have mildew built up on outer drum. Do this once a week for awhile until smell goes away. Stop using softener. It leaves a residue in drum that can mildew. Use powdered detergent instead of liquid. The liquid also leaves a residue. Use plain white vinegar in place of softener on every load. It helps stop mildew since it is slightly acidic and as a bonus it helps remove soap residue from your clothes-plus it's inexpensive compared to softener. Leave door ajar after every wash and wipe down rubber door gasket on all sides. Good luck.

cheaper to check for a problem in the impeller first as the pump motor seldom fail but there are problems with items jamming the impeller

Take tray back out. Take all the components apart and clean all the tubes. Capillary action will not work with residue left on the parts.

it is a drain hose so there is no need for a filter the water to drain will be dirty so there is no point in filtering dirty water destined too go down the drain

Not motor. Most likely one of these: bad bearing or seal, worn shock absorbers, broken spider(drum support to spindle)
