I have LG WM2487H*M and at begining of wash cycle when the water is filling, the FE code comes on and it keeps filling with water then drains the water when it reaches a level. What is wrong? I then shut off the water valves, unplug the power cord. Then start over with out much success. So basically it is not getting tossing wash cycle.

SOURCE: "FE" error code; won't stop filling

Hello Sheri Tucker,

The "FE" code is referring to a bad or malfunctioning water valve. The machine continues to fill because the solenoid on the valve inside the machine isn't closing to stop the water. The valve should be inspected and/or replaced if bad. This will require some dis-assembly, if washing machine repair isn't something your comfortable with then a service call is the best bet. If you are going to try and inspect yourself please make sure you unplug the machine before starting any dis-assembly. Hope this helps.

Thanks,

SOURCE: I have an LG WM2487 washer and I'm having several

Addressing your error code: We had the same problem with our washer and couldn't find anyone locally that wanted to even look at it. Hence, I had to find a solution myself. I stumbled onto a sight that had service manuals (not just owner manuals), and found that error code there. What looks like an upsidedown F is actually a lower case T, so the error code is really "tE". This indicates a Thermistor fault.
The Thermistor is located next to the heating element at the botom-front of the drum housing (you will probably have to lay the washer on its back to access it). It is in a soft rubber grommet that protrudes about a half inch out of the housing, just to the right of the heater.
In the case of our washer, when I pulled the Thermistor out of the grommet I noticed some rust on the metal part. I simply rubbed the rust off with my thumb, inspected it again, unplugged and re-connected the connector a couple of times, and tested the washer again.
Results: We have now been using the washer for a couple of days with zero errors, and this was a tenacious fault that interrupted every load before. We are finally happy again with our very expensive appliance. I sincerely hope that this helps you and anyone else with this problem.

SOURCE: My LG WM2487H has water in the detergent cup at

This is normal.
All LG washers use a siphon system to dispense soap, bleach and fabric softner.
Some times water will remain in the cups depending on the cycle used.

FE means overflow condition. That means sand or trash has gotten into the tube going from tub to water level switch. So find that hose and blow it out. Remove the standing water and retry.
