If under your washing machine there is a trace from the water (rust, water stains) or just a loud noise then you need to replace the drum bearings.

SOURCE: Loud noise when draining and spinning

It sounds like it has something to do with the pump which can be located in the direction of the noise. It could be something as simple as the belt wearing out or even just the pump came loose off of its mounts. Worst case scenario would be a new pump but it honestly sounds like something a little less intrusive. I know I had one that I had to hold down with a bungee cord because the mount had broken off of it.

SOURCE: Why won't the drum spin on my LG Tromm front load washer?

I had the same problem and it was a bad sensor assembly (#6501KW2002A). You can order
it from an online electronics store (www.mcminone.com). Cost is approx. $20.

I fixed it based on a thread from 2007:
See http://www.fixya.com/support/t159708-lg_washer_wm1832c

But, here's what I did:
1. Unplug the machine.
2. Take off the back plate that has 4 small screws.
3. Unscrew the big bolt in the middle.
4. Take off the hubcap looking part the bolt was securing.
5. Unclip the two sets of wires on the bottom of the circle you are looking at
(the set of wires to the right are connected to the sensor assembly you want to replace).
6. Unscrew the 6 smaller bolts to take off the circular piece that the sensor assembly is snapped to.
7. Mark with a pen where the sensor attaches so you know where to snap the new one.
8. Unclip the old sensor assembly and clip on the new one
9. Reassemble.

SOURCE: ftf2140es3 won't completely drain or do final spin.

I have one that does the same thing at times. remove the bottom front panel. You will see a black boot that comes down from the tub. Loosen the clamp on top of the boot. You should be able to pinch the boot and feel something hard inside the boot. Pull the boot down from the tub and put your fingers down inside the boot and pull up the coin collector. It may be full of junk, coins ect. Clean it and replace the boot and clamp. This should help you.

Loud humming on spin cycle slow down lg washer

Hi Charlie,

We too have an LG - purchased purely because its "drum is directly driven by a motor" and NOT driven by rubber belts which are slower and can wear and break and are noisy - It is ABSOLUTELY CRUCIAL that ALL washing machines on EARTH are LEVEL or else ALL H*LL will break loose! The LG machine is SCREAMING to be LEVELED!
Use a spirit level sitting on top of the machine to check that your LG is NOT sloping is level if NOT then adjust the feet accordingly. Check your machine for level VERTICALLY and also level from FRONT TO BACK. This is a B*STARD of a job to do. If you can't be bothered with it or don't have cash to buy a spirit level then ask around for a local retired handy person who would be thrilled to do it for you in exchange for a few PINTS OF BEER. Also take care that your Washing Machine
DRUM is NOT overloaded or OUT-OF-BALANCE - evenly distribute YOUR WASHING in it. FINGERS CROSSED. ;)

LG WM2032HW Washer

You may have a bearing problem and it will need to be looked at by a qualified LG technician.  That is a big job and will require total disassembly of the tub and drum assembly to get to the bearings.  There are 2 of them.

Wont spin or drain

The drain pump is jammed or clogged up. Remove the filter cover and check for bobby pins, coins or bra wires. If clean, remove drum to pump hose from the pump and check for any foreign matter. Try to turn the pump impeller by hand. It should turn freely. If pump is not free, replace it.
