http://lgdishwasher.yolasite.com/ MINE JUST STARTED AGAIN TODAY. SWOLLEN BOTTOM DOOR GASKET LOOKS LIKE HILLS UP AND DOWN. ALLOWING WATER TO OVER FLOW DOOR BOTTOM. GETS TRAPPED BEHIND GASKET. PAN HAS LITTLE WATER WHEN YOU OPEN DOOR. BUT CAN SEE RUN OUT OVER EDGE WHEN RUNNING WITHOUT OUTER DOOR SKIN, ALSO LEAKS AT TOP CORNERS DUE TO DEFORMED CORNER GASKET. THEY SHOULD HAVE MADE THE GASKET ROUND IN CORNERS TO KEEP IT SEALING, HAD TO MAKE C METAL CLIPS 4 INCHES LONG TO HOLD BOTTOM GASKET TIGHT TO BOTTOM PAN, USED 4 CLIPS AND TWO SMALLER AT ENDS
Does it seem to be coming from the door it self or from underneath the unit?
If it's coming from the door, check the seal or maybe replace it. It's easy enough and cheap.
(disconnect power before proceeding to the next step) If it's coming from underneath the unit, first start a cycle to drain it then stop it. Pull the unit out and flip it to its side(have a couple towels ready), then remove the bottom cover and check hoses connects or any signs of leakage.
My dishwasher was doing the same thing, but it was because of a clogged vent. The minerals in the water built up to a point that it was totally blocked and since it couldnt vent, the water ran down the inside of the door and leaked out the bottom. I just popped the vent cover off of the inside of the door and cleaned it out and it stopped leaking.
The F2 error means the tray underneath the unit has filled with water.
You will need to pull out the dishwasher (remove 2 screws at top left/right when door open that prevent tilting).
Unplug and pull out dishwasher.
Remove 4 screws on bottom rear panel and you will see tray underneath.
Sponge out water and F2 error will reset.
However, you should not get water in this tray. There may be a faulty valve, pump or leaking pipe.
Run diagnostic mode (described in user manual) to see if leak occurs during filling, draining or circulating.
